What's new

Afghanistan beat Bangladesh by 2 wickets in the 2nd ODI

Athar has lost his balls.

First crying, then lost track of the batsman ...
 
Naveen Ul Haq is 17 years and 5 days old. I swear the Afghan age is worst than Pakistani age.
 
Rashid Khan bowls a Googly that turns the other way. Lets see what the wonder boy of Bangladesh does.
 
Sabbir Nasir aren't good enough to bat for our top order. Riad, Mushy and Shakib are capable and have the experience.

Sabbir yet hasnt shown his potential in this format

It's tougher to bat at 5 to 7 in ODI for stroke makers. Sabbir should have played at 3 & ask to go after the newish ball.
 
What just happened to Bangladesh?

Is the pitch playing up or the batsmen? Or is it just world class bowling?
 
Chalo, office time.

Hope they don't lose it by 10 wickets!!!!!

Wicket is definitely not 280 wicket, but none of the top order carried their start.
 
Score 220 atleast. Don't lose the match in the first half of the match. At least give something to the bowlers.
 
Afghanistan can not afford to play such a pathetic keeper!!! This guy will drop 2-3 catches/stamping at least per innings.

More likely the bowling. The Afghan players are hard workers, probably the most hard working players. Not surprised that they are this good.
 
Mashrafe getting out to a glory shot, looks like the guys havent learnt their lessons yet...
 
Soumya needs to be kicked out from the team. Don't know why selectors r so intersted to persist with him. He has already got ample opportunies. It's time to drop him.
 
Why commentators are crying after every decision given out as if batsmen were batting beautifully? they were certainly not batting well and in such situations sometime you get lucky and sometime not.

He is better than most of Bangladeshi batsmen. Some one even termed him next Saeed Anwar or next great batsman
 
This use of word brother and Amla smiley isn't funny anymore- don't make fun of his religious beliefs etc

Have deleted posts and will delete more as needed
 
I feel Bangladeshi guys are playing under immense pressure. No one will like to be in their situation now. Losing to a lower ranked albeit a more hardworking side IMO is choking them??

But kudos to Afghani players for picking themselves up after a dispiriting loss and putting up a fierce display.

Maybe bangla guys are getting to know how it feels to lose to a lower ranked nation whom u r supposed to beat 9 times out of 10?
 
Afghanistan will loose this match by big margin. Bangladesh will not miss so many catches also their bowlers will not give them so many loose balls.



Why are you so negative about Afghanistan team bro? Give credit where it's due , we have got Bangladesh 9 down for 168 and even in the last match we almost chased their target of 265, yet you are posting negative about the team.

Exactly. I also feel the same. They r playing under immense pressure which is preventing their batters to play their Natural game. Most of them r playing way too cautiously.

I want Afgan to win but they have some similar stupid type of players like us. The keeper look like Kamran's fan boy. So unfit and missing so many catches/ stamping

We are new and inexperienced against top teams so it will take time to be more comfortable playing infront of big crowds etc. I wasn't expecting them to be so competitive but I am glad how they have played so far. as for Pakistan, they are a much more experienced team with much better facilities available to the players. The keeper is a good batsman, but I don't know why he doesn't concentrate on his fitness.
 
Our Umar Akmal should learn from this Mosaddek how to play with responsibility without giving your wicket away
 
Pathetic umpiring. THREE bad decisions in 1 innings, r u kidding me?

Yeah, when decision goes against you umpires are bad, when they did so many bad decision against us than it was great!!!!!
 
Bangladesh are slowly regaining their usual status.
 
Wait the guy's name is Naveen-ul-haq? What a strange name..

I thought it was actually Naveed-ul-haq..

Who's is this u and us. I m not even a bangla supporter. Umpiring was pathetic. I'll call a decision wrong if it's indeed wrong. It doest matter whether it's in favor of my team or against my team. Simple. :yk
 
Really?

Naveen is a popular boy name among hindus. I haven't seen muslims having the name naveen. Parveen yes, but not naveen. Hence I found it strange.

Lol Parveen and Naveen are both feminine names, atleast in Pakistan. My nani's two sisters are named that.
 
If Afghan bros keep tuk tuking they will put themselves in the whole again and loose this match

@B'deshi posters - I am watching the match in GTV you-tube live link, a Bangladeshi channel. I see Kareena, Kajol, et al in ads. How popular is Bollywood and Indian products in B'desh?
 
I thought bangladesh improved drastically but they still playing as minnows, last match they narrowly escaped and now 208 on bd pitches ?
 
Shehzad is another Sharjeel with no brain!!! Afghan should deserve to loose when they have players like this. All the hard work end up in vein
 
Shehzad gone.

Afgans in trouble. Outside of Nabi, I do not see any good batsmen left.

Bangla in driver's seat.

From Tata truck to Dabur Amla, Bangladesh is mini India
 
The way Afghanistan have played they deserve to win this match, they are the better team this series
 
I feel that Nabi has the potential to become a very good all rounder.

He is a very good spinner and has good technique to attack as well as defend. Yet he throws it away whenever I see him bat. A big underachiever.

Hopefully he can show up today.
 
Bangladeshis abroad surely dislike India though,although my parents speak highly of them atleast the ones in NA. I think they don't have the arrogance of India-Pakistan yet.
 
Every now and than Afghan bros loose concentration!!! Chasing 208 too much to ask for inexperience team
 
Even the first match was close. Bangladesh won by a single-digit margin, the number of runs.

Only they can make a series against the likes of Afghanistan or Hong Kong look competitive.

B'desh raise their game against better opponents and suffer from lack of motivation against lesser ranked teams. They never demolish teams like IRE/ AFG/ SCO/ ZIM even at home.

BTW are you a Gambhir fan :P
