What's new

Asia Cup 2023: Bangladesh (265/8) defeated India (259 all out) by 6 runs in a thrilling encounter!

We are resting 5 key players .

Fair on this occasion as the final is coming up and already qualified but in general India are not good enough to rest players.

As evident right now.

A lowish score defended by a decent but nothing special bowling attack.
 
Even with the rested squad I thought India would take this. Great innings by Gill though. Congrats to Bangla Bros for even outdoing us in Asia Cup lol. All part of our masterplan to not be favourites for world cup...
 
India is a rubbish side I've been saying all along.
Shame that Pak don't play them like any other side
 
So? Still pathetic performance by most players. Sky seems a very limited player. Not suited for odi.
Bangladesh is also missing 2 to 3 players.
I wouldn’t say pathetic, we just didn’t take the game too seriously.
 
Our batting is not club level compared to India, that's a compliment. Our batting is gully Level compared to India.

Fakhar is a bootleg version of rohit, Gill is leagues above imam, Babar is a bootleg version of kholi, Rahul/Kishan vs Rizwan is a hilarious comparison, same way faheem vs Pandya or Kuldeep vs Shadab is a hilarious comparison.
OK we understand Pakistan should not bother play the world cup, and arrange Ghalli Mohalla tournament

Bangladesh can play whichever they want but they can't be equal to Virat , Pandya , bumrah and kuldeep calibre .but credit to Bangladesh for winning this match as they full deserved
 
Even today match proved that we have worst spinners than any other team. Even uae Nepal have better spinners.
 
How bad is Prasidh Krishna with the bat? If anyone comes behind Shami in the batting lineup, then that guy better be a Mitch Starc or Shaheen Shah type bowler. But Prasidh is a club level bowler with the ball and school boy level with the bat. This guy should be no where near the Indian team.
 
You did, it was humiliation losing so badly to an ovarated team like India.

Yes, also why you are being humiliated against one of the worst ODI teams , Bangladesh.
if that is what helps you sleep at night, i am happy for it.

start workshopping the excuses for the inevitable world cup loss, you have a few weeks to get the right one.

The thing is Pakistan has a million better players in both List A, FC as well as their current bench strength such as saud, tayyab, saim etc.

But its choosing the wrong players. So yes Pakistan might as well go back to dominating 2nd string sides and get their icc ranking back rather then play this world cup if this is the team their sending. They wanted to boycott wc anyway because of going to India and playing in chennai drama.
 
Pak finished last absolute disgraceful and still no news about which players losing its place for WC squad after Asia Cup disaster
 
Axar is a terrific batsman. Very underrated and should come ahead of Jadeja for sure. He can also come ahead of someone like SKY or Pandya if wickets are tumbling. He has the technique to negotiate tough bowling and score runs too.
 
All Asian sides to be exposed in the WC then, despite the fact that WC is being played in Asia?

They were testing their bench strength in this game.

I don't think India is the best side or anything, their an okay side. But if you seriously think out of form fakhar, Bootleg Mr No 1, lord of Drama Rizwan, Shane Watson Level allrounder faheem, ab de devillers Level agha salman, jos butler finisher chacha, Shane Warne Level shadab and nawaz etc

Is superior to pandya, Rohit, Kholi, sheryas, Kishan, Rahul, jadeja, kuldeep, Bumrah then you're out of your mind.

Only naseem and Rauf are better then Indian pacers except Bumrah who alone is superior to our 3.

Other then this trio, India is superior in every category.

You are reading too much into this Asia cup. All Asian sides will be alright. Perhaps Bangladesh is the only country with lowest chance to make it to the semis. India, Srilanka and Pakistan can all make it to Semis. Then you have Australia who are always there in the mix and England who could be favorites again to repeat.
 
Yes Pakistan is best side that's why they finished bottom of the table .lol

I am now an Australian supporter. I live in Australia and have an aus passport, I give up my **** origins.

It is time to meet in the world cup as rivals. Aus vs India, Game on hai. 😂😂
 
Team Australia will thrash India this world cup. I am in no mood to support my pakistani origins anymore.

A garbage team that finished last at the super 4 stage.

Australia just got destroyed by SA in an ODI today. They gave away 400+. Klassen scored 170 in 80 balls. :o
 
Before world cup encounter india is hosting Australia for 3 odi match series .This is very important for Australia points of views as they will get much needed practice .
Oh, I didn't know that, will watch the games then.
 
Good morale boosting victory for Bangladesh ahead of the World Cup with 7 main players missing. Resting all three main fast bowlers ( Taskin, Shoriful, Hasan ) along with injuries to Ebadot, Tamim and Shanto. Mushfiq not playing due to family commitments. Wonderful stuff from the bench strength and signs of good things to come at the World Cup where we would hopefully have our full strength team back and fully fit. Really impressed with Tanzim Hasan as well. Goodluck to both India and Sri Lanka for the final.
 
Bangladesh's last 4 ODI results against India:

Won
Lost
Won
Won
 
It was a dead rubber. And it was treated as such. It was evident that our guys didn't really care much for this after those two high octane clashes in 3 consecutive days as seen by the casual batting approach in the first 40 overs.

Good that Shami, Prasidh, SKY got some game time.
 
Rankings are inaccurate. India is ranked higher than Bangladesh in ODIs, and India play regular ODI series against all teams barring Pakistan.

(Applying same logic as Pakistan haters).

Cue excuse of resting players/dead rubber etc.
 
Bangladesh don't have that mental block against us anymore, they've now beaten us in 3 of the last 4 ODIs.

Asia Cup Super Fours Report: Bangladesh Clinch Victory against India in Close Contest

Date: 15th September 2023

Overview:

In a riveting face-off in the Super Fours of the Asia Cup, Bangladesh narrowly secured a win against India by a margin of 6 runs. The match, marked by commendable individual performances and strategic gameplay, further highlighted the evolving competition in Asian cricket.

Match Details:

Venue: Colombo RPS
Toss: India won the toss and elected to field first
Bangladesh: 265/8 in 50 overs
India: 259 all out in 49.5 overs
Man of the Match: Shakib Al Hasan for soring 80 off 85 balls and for taking a wicket for 43 runs in his 10 overs

Bangladesh's Batting:
Bangladesh managed to put up a competitive total of 265 after losing early wickets underpinned by a notable contribution from their seasoned captain, Shakib Al Hasan. His partnership with Towhid Hridoy was crucial as they helped rebuild Bangladesh’s after being 4-59. In the end there were some late fireworks from Nasum Ahmed, Mahedi Hasan and Tanzim Sakib that helped Bangladesh eek out a score of 265.

India's Response:
India's innings had a rocky start, with Tanzim Hasan Sakib making an impactful debut, notably dismissing Rohit Sharma early on. Shubman Gill stood out for India, carving out a century under pressure. His effort was unfortunately not enough, with his wicket marking a pivotal moment in the game's trajectory.

Final Moments:
The climax of the match witnessed a determined effort from Axar Patel, but Bangladesh's bowlers, led by the precision of Mustafizur Rahman, managed to stave off the challenge and guide their team to victory.

Noteworthy Statistics:
Shakib Al Hasan leads the tally with 29 wickets in India vs Bangladesh ODIs.
This match marked the third instance of Bangladesh besting India in multi-nation ODI tournaments.
Historically, it's the first time in 13 matches where a team batting first has secured a win in an India vs Bangladesh contest in the Asia Cup.

Conclusion:
Although this was effectively a dead rubber match the close contest between Bangladesh and India showcased the depth and quality present in both squads. As Bangladesh take solace in their win, India's sights are now set on the Asia Cup finale against the defending champions, Sri Lanka, scheduled for Sunday the 17th September.
 
Congrats Bangladesh. India needs to stop this sky obsession. He is no Kevin Pietersen or ABDV. They have to stop living in lala land. He is a niche T20 player. That is where he belongs. Someone who has a poor list A record is unlikely to master ODI at this age. He is only one year younger than Kohli. They are desperately wanting him to click. I thought their pipedream would be over after 3 ducks in a row in ODIs. No they are adamant.
 
Team Australia will thrash India this world cup. I am in no mood to support my pakistani origins anymore.

A garbage team that finished last at the super 4 stage.

One team i don't back India against - NZ
India always manages to lose to them
One team i back India against - Australia
Especially in India.
 
#2 ODI Team India lost against #8 ODI Team Bangladesh and dropped to #3

Pakistan moved up to #2 again.

India will remain #3 even if they win Final vs Sri Lanka.
 
Great for Bangladesh. Beating India in whatever match always great. Bangladesh needed that before the world cup beating a top team. Huge morale boost. hugely impressed by
Tamzim Sakib one for the future. Nasum and Sheikh Mahedi did well. Tawhid has been brilliant since coming into the side. Shakib captained well.

Ladies and gentlemen, the perfect example of an Indian supporter who applies duplicity when it comes to rankings. Cannot stomach the fact Pakistan has a higher ODI ranking than India.

India have lost 3 out of the last 4 times vs Bangladesh in ODIs. Utter humiliation upon India who are not worthy of any high rank, despite their high ranking ODI players.

The shame.

I'm not an Indian supporter. I am pakistani lol.

I don't think India is a good team, their an okay team. Also they lost yesterday due to resting their players , anyway regardless their an okay team.

But rohit, Kholi, Gill, Sheryas, Rahul/Kishan, Pandya, Axar patel, Bumrah, Jadeja, Siraj, kuldeep are far far superior players to

Fakhar who can't even play against minnows, Imam who's straight out of the 1990's, Babar who's bootleg kholi and can't play spin, Rizwan who's okay whereas sheryas is a genuinely superior middle order bat, Pandya who's > Chacha, Bumrah who's > pur current trio, Jadeja and kuldeep who are superior to shadab and nawaz, Shadab being the worst international spinner I've seen etc etc.

India is not the best team, but their superior to pak who only dominate 2nd string sides. Pakistan's batting relies on Babar and imam and maybe rizwan on occasion. The middle order of chacha, agha, Faheem/ Nawaz, Shadab its basically tail enders.

Pakistan 2019 team middle order of hafeez, Haris sohail, Malik, Imad waseem, Sarfraz while not the best middle order was leaps and bounds ahead of this trash middle order. Ontop of which malik, Hafeez, imad and haris were all genuine all rounders and better bowlers then shadab, nawaz , Faheem, Agha and chacha.

If this was 2019 pakistan then sure, it's a closer game and would be a fun one to watch. Only thing pak is superior in to India atm, is that our bowling trio is superior to all your bowlers except Bumrah. But besides our bowling trio, we don't have any backups like India does, since they have kuldeep, jadeja and oandya to carry. Who do we have? Shadab? Faheem?

This coming from a fan whose team lost to India by 228 runs :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

Most Pakistani fans despite their joy at the result of this match are keeping their mouths shut because they do have a certain thing called shame after what India did to their team.

People aren't understanding. I admit India isn't a strong team, Rohit and kholi are spent forces, Kholi's performance besides the pak game wasn't good throughout this Asia cup, neither was rohits. The lower order has problems.

But sheryas, Kishan/Rahul, Pandya, Jadeja, Axar patel (Their decent middle order bats) and Gill is one hell of an opener. Their bowling department is superior since it doesn't just rely on bumrah and siraj, Pandya kulddep and jadeja give excellent depth.

Compared to our MO which is composed of Rizwan, Agha, Shadab, Nawaz/Faheem and chacha

^^ This MO is non existent. The bowling is also non existent as theirs no one to back our trio. Either our trio performs and their hard work gets done by shezada shadab, Nawaz and faheem, or our trio doesn't perform and shadab adds fuel to the fire.

Fakhar is a spent force, all that's left is imam and Babar who aren't Impact players. Their just accumulators one accumulator who's a tail ender to spin and kuldeep will walk all over him and the other who's a complete and utterly liability once over 40 is reached.
 
Rohit Sharma speaking to the press:

"We wanted to give some game time to the guys, keeping the bigger picture in mind. Not compromising on how we wanted to play this game. Get in some players who are likely to play the World Cup"

"Axar batted brilliantly but couldn't finish. He showed a lot of character. But credit to the Bangladesh bowlers. Gill's hundred was brilliant. He backs his game, he knows exactly how he wants to play. Pretty clear on what he wants to do for the team. Look at his form over the last year. Pretty solid against the new ball. Works really hard, there's no optional practice for Gill,"

Bro, in no way have I tried to put the Pak team down during this Asia Cup, that was till this point. You can check my posts on the thread about how Pakistan will get over the humiliation handed by the Indian team, I was downplaying it in every post of mine, saying such things happen in the game.

My post was directed particularly to a classless troll who has no humility or respect for others. It's posters like him who give a bad name to sensible Pakistani posters like yourself.
 
Shoaib Akhtar:

"India have lost the game. Embarrassing loss. We can't criticise too much. Bangladesh are here to play. People were criticising Pakistan, saying that they got beaten up. Sri Lanka are a good team, not an average team. The same is the case with Bangladesh. They are all playing international cricket. Finally, some relief for the the Pakistan fans, including me, that India have lost the game. Wake up call for India. You can't take teams lightly after winning a few games,"

Yh I'm aware. I was just explaining my stance and my viewpoints in general. But some posters are relentlessly attacking me calling me an Indian supporter 😂, even though I already highlighted so many of india's weaknesses.

But it would be dishonest for me to say india's weaknesses are worse then ours. But ig me stating the truth means that I'm a biased Indian supporter who has it out for Pakistan, even though I want nothing more then Pakistan to win by doing the right thing.
 
Omg Pakistani fans and expert on social media are still crying about reserve day saying if there was no reserve day then Pakistan would have qualified .are they don't know if that match had no results then Indian team would have not rested Virat ,Pandya , Kuldeep, Bumrah and siraj .. Zero IQ fans and expert.
