Bangladeshis are no different to Pakistanis, were muslims at the end of the day and I wish them the best.

Bangladesh's population is 140 Million, if they can get some half decent domestic set up I expect Bangladesh to be a powerfull cricketing force because they ahve the numbers and the passion for the game.


Maybe they will be stuffing India in a few years. INSHALLAH

Never knew that. Thanks for the insight!
 
Saw the beginning of BD's second inning and it was quite surpising to see one slip against the new ball with the ball of course going through the region again and again. Amazing given that they needed to bowl BD out.

Ponting can be really defensive and I am not sure he is good enough to captain another Ashes series.

even tho he is new to the team i think Hussey would be a good captain - im basing it on how he did for Durham, did a top job for us :19:
 
The Second Inning Woes for Bangal Cont ..In order to be good test team they need to score runs in the second innings ...

Crap .. they dont seem to learn ...
 
It's a tricky score for the OZ to negotiate though. The pitch is keeping low and scoring will be difficult. Nonetheless, I think the complacency's well and truly been knocked out of the OZ batsmen now.
 
if Australia win this, This will be one of the best chases in subcontinent.
The ball is keeping low and turning and 300+ has to be chased.
 
92/1 Aussie - doing well - I dont foresee any problems in completing this run chase - it may not be done in quick time but it will happen.

I believe Australia is still not out of trouble. This pair has to carry on for atleast another 100 run partnership. Still Australia will need 100+ runs on a 5th day track in the subcontinent.It is not easy.
All depends on Ponting...apna hero Ponting.
 
Ab if you want to create some drama out of nothing - go ahead, waisay, itna bata doon, kuch naheen honay walla - Aussie Bhai will win this ( whatever happens here - WELL PLAYED BANGLA - takes real teeth to sink into Aussie flesh and they have done that - nothing to prove now)
 
Comforting Miggy. I want Australia to win. But it is not going to be easy. Plus remember Australia are playing a batsman less.Aus played an extra bowler in this match.
 
108/1 - 199 needed.

Aussie very slow, almost creeping along but moving steadily towards their target.
 
This is definately going to go down as one of those 'What could've been' matches for Bangladesh..

What a shame after such a good showing for the first half of the match
 
It's amazing how English supporters make out they have this "great rivalry" with Aus and how they love it when Aus lose - yet they always support em Vs any asian teams.....
 
:D - I never follow cricket unless for Pakistan Oxy.

=====

58.5 Shahadat Hossain to Hayden, OUT, Run out! short of length ball on the stumps, Hayden defends on the back-foot to mid-on and takes off for a single, Enamul fields and hits direct at the bowlers end, TV Umpire called for, was very close but Umpire gives it in favour of Bangladesh!

--> TV umpire AFM Akhtaruddin

:22:
 
Ponting doing an Inzi here. if Bangla can somehow gets him then they have real good chance
 
Bangla need Gilly and Ponting today
and also they should go for new ball straigh away after 80 overs, they didn't got new ball in first Aus Inn and that helped Aus to reduce lead

and his test career. Just feel that it's all to late for Bangladesh. Hopefully someone can pick up 3 quick wickets.
 
Punter again doing the business. If he's still there tomorrow for 1 hour+, Bang have no chance.
 
Aussies get off to the worst start possible. Lose Gilchrist and Warne early.
 
austrailia still the favourites...as long as punters out their...they will win no matter what,

brian charles lara + sachin endulkar = ricky ponting :11:
 
If Ponting hangs around till the end or right near, we will win. If not, we're faaaaaaaaaaaarrrkkkeed I reckon.

At the moment Lee and Ponting treating Rafique like he's Murali. Anything can happen.
 
ahahaha just logged onto cricinfo and saw "gilchrist and Warne fall early" and thought they'd messed up and put the headline from 2 days ago on by mistake :D
 
Lord have mercy. if the bangalis win here then the moslis have had it . screw em moslis, i hope they give it to the aussies in this one.
 
BD must be wishing they batted with some guts in the second innings. 60 more runs and this game could've really been theirs. What pity that they reaaaaaally lack killer instinct.
 
Enamul Haque to Lee, SIX, flighted delivey, Lee comes down the track and hits it well and over long off fence, good strike from Lee for MAX!

Aussies require just 44 runs to win now.
 
New ball has bene taken. Let's see if they can do any damage, this Shahadat Hussain guy is not that bad.
 
Wasim Akram expressing his shock at Shahid Afridi's decision

"I hve no idea what's got into his mind. No idea WHO has got into his mind."


OUTTTTTTTT
 
Mashrafe Mortaza to Lee, OUT, Mortaza strikes, good ball back of a length, slight away movement, Lee drives, gets the edge to Mashud, who takes the catch.

Match NOT finished yet.
 
Ponting wont let this slip...hes better than that

Australia should still win this
 
Ponting Dropeed In The Outfield!!!!

Should have been caught,wasn't a sitting but shouldv'e been caught.
 
Punter dropped after top edging a hook, that's the test thrown away :(
 
That the difference between Australia and rest of the world , Aussis never ever miss and opporunity to kill thier opposition
