Australia (100/2) defeat Bangladesh (140/8) by 28 runs [DLS method] in the Super 8 game of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024

[sweep_shot]

If Afghanistan or Bangladesh can upset and won game against Australia then they will most likely out of the semifinals .

No.

Aussies can still qualify. They have to beat India.

2 wins should be enough.

 

[Devadwal]

If this is a minnow game for you, what are you doing on this thread?

So now you tell me which match will i watch or not ?? Its my choice

What a time for wicket to falls

 

[sweep_shot]

Zampa gets Litton.

BD lose their 2nd wicket.

 

[sweep_shot]

Zampa is a lethal bowler. Litton picked the wrong bowler to target. Should've targeted Stoinis or something.

 

[sweep_shot]

BD promoted Rishad up the order. Pinch-hitting time?

 

[Devadwal]

No.

Aussies can still qualify. They have to beat India.

2 wins should be enough.

India will beat australia as this will be not a final . they have edges in finals but not in group stages .

 

[sweep_shot]

BD - 60/2 (9 overs).

Can't afford to lose another wicket now.

 

[sweep_shot]

Maxwell is in the attack. BD can target him maybe.

 

[Devadwal]

Another one bite the dust

 

[sweep_shot]

Four from Nazmul.

67/2 (9.5 overs).

 

[sweep_shot]

Another one bite the dust

This guy was a pinch-hitter. Not a proper batter. He was promoted up the order to play shots maybe.

 

[sweep_shot]

BD - 67/3 (10 overs).

Drinks break.

 

[jnaveen1980]

USA scored 176 on this ground against Rabada/Nortje/Jansen/Maharaja/Shamsi.

 

[Devadwal]

What bangladesh is playing another game tomorrow .

 

[jnaveen1980]

When you bowl to Bangladesh you need a fielder right behind keeper. Most of their shots against bouncers go only there.

 

[jnaveen1980]

13 extras by Australia. Unusually poor with disicpline

 

[sweep_shot]

What bangladesh is playing another game tomorrow .

Saturday. Against India.

Afghanistan on Monday.

 

[Devadwal]

When you bowl to Bangladesh you need a fielder right behind keeper. Most of their shots against bouncers go only there.

When we play Village tournaments then always placed a fielder behind the keeper

 

[sweep_shot]

Starc is bowling out already. This is the 11th over.

Interesting strategy.

BD - 72/3 (11 overs).

 

[Vikram1989]

Winner of afg vs bng will be the second best team in Asia I believe. Afg is second best in odis already as per last odi wc.bng vs pakistan is a close one especially on slow wickets.

 

[Devadwal]

Saturday. Against India.

Afghanistan on Monday.

Yes tomorrow is Saturday .

Maybe confusion because time zone

 

[sweep_shot]

Shanto is on 41*.

 

[sweep_shot]

Average score on this ground is 154. Can BD reach that?

I think 160 would not be a bad score (if they can reach that).

 

[sweep_shot]

BD - 79/3 (12 overs).

 

[sweep_shot]

Four from Towhid. Need more boundaries.

 

[sweep_shot]

Shanto is out.

BD - 84/4 (13 overs).

 

[sweep_shot]

Shakib is at the crease.

 

[Itachi]

Winner of afg vs bng will be the second best team in Asia I believe. Afg is second best in odis already as per last odi wc.bng vs pakistan is a close one especially on slow wickets.

Afg is a lot better than Bangladesh to be honest.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Yes tomorrow is Saturday .

Maybe confusion because time zone

It is still thursday here

 

[sweep_shot]

BD - 89/4 (14 overs).

6 more overs. They need to reach 150 to give bowlers something to work with.

 

[sweep_shot]

Wade is chirping and goofing around a lot.

 

[sweep_shot]

BD - 98/4 (15 overs).

Zampa is done with his overs.

 

[Mainul]

Not looking like a batting wicket. Ball is not coming onto the bat easily

 

[sweep_shot]

100 is up.

BD - 100/4 (15.3 overs).

 

[Justcrazy]

Bangladesh need strong finish here , the total does not look like enough.

 

[sweep_shot]

Bangladesh need strong finish here , the total does not look like enough.

It could've been enough against an associate. Not against the Aussies.

BD need 150 minimum.

 

[Justcrazy]

103 . 4

Just 24 balls left for bangla to get a defending total

 

[Vikram1989]

Afg is a lot better than Bangladesh to be honest.

Yeah but issue is that they are not improving much in t20s .As a team afg are not progressing

 

[sweep_shot]

103/4 (16 overs).

 

[jnaveen1980]

THere is zero power hitters in this side. Occasionally i have seen Mahmadullah smashes sometiems Litton. Others are weak.

 

[sweep_shot]

Stoinis gets Shakib.

103/5.

 

[TheRock]

Totally one sided contest. Even as a neutral cricket fan, it's painful to watch such matches.

 

[Vikram1989]

Athar Ali kan is full of nonsense .He claims bng is better team as they whitewashed eng on those paddy fields.no wonder bng team never improved. He does not even consider there are pitches outside mirpur.

 

[Justcrazy]

SIXXXX

Touhid hammers that

 

[sweep_shot]

Six from Towhid. Need more sixes.

 

[sweep_shot]

Another six.

2 sixes in 2 balls.

 

[sweep_shot]

BD - 117/5 (17 overs).

Should aim for 33 from the next 3.

 

[Vikram1989]

THere is zero power hitters in this side. Occasionally i have seen Mahmadullah smashes sometiems Litton. Others are weak.

We saw what mahmadullah can do especially against ind 2016 , sa 2024.They don't have any int standard hitter especially in middle order

 

[sweep_shot]

120/5.

16 balls to go.

 

[Justcrazy]

Australia are too good for this Bangladesh side.

 

[sweep_shot]

Mahmudullah is out.

122/6.

 

[jnaveen1980]

They just can't play bouncers can they 11th or 12th dismissal against short ball in this world cup.

 

[sweep_shot]

Another wicket.

122/7.

Cummins is on a hat-trick.

 

[TheRock]

Aus would chase down the total in 16-17 overs, I think.

 

[Justcrazy]

Australia looking ruthless in there approach , they are looking to win the tournament , not this game only

 

[jnaveen1980]

They have 38 runs from Stoinis and Maxwell. 4overs 14 extras. 71 runs in 14 overs from other bowlers

 

[sweep_shot]

Final 2 overs.

BD should give it a wack. Not much to lose.

123/7.

 

[Devadwal]

Easy win for Australia coming up .

Fair to say USA is more competitive than Bangladesh as they gave hard time to South Africa.

 

[sweep_shot]

Easy win for Australia coming up .

Fair to say USA is more competitive than Bangladesh as they gave hard time to South Africa.

BD lost by 4 runs against South Africa. USA lost by 18 runs against South Africa.

 

[Devadwal]

Towid hirdoy seem like good batsman .

He has attacking game which many Bangladesh batsman lack .

 

[sweep_shot]

This pitch seems sluggish. BD are probably 15-20 runs short.

BD - 133/7 (19 overs).

 

[sweep_shot]

Cummins gets a hat-trick.

133/8.

 

[sweep_shot]

Maybe Mr expert know that difference between both of the pitches

BD played on a tougher pitch. Shouldn't they have lost by a bigger margin? ROFL.

 

[Devadwal]

That's a hat-trick for Pat Cummin.

Yes its against minnows still good achievement .

 

[sweep_shot]

Cummins gets a hat-trick.

133/8.

I believe this is the second hat-trick by an Aussie bowler in a World T20. Previous one was in 2007 (Brett Lee vs Bangladesh).

 

[Devadwal]

BD played on a tougher pitch. Shouldn't they have lost by a bigger margin? ROFL.

Those pitch were reduced the gap between minnow and top teams .

Today is good pitch and how miserable bangladesh is playing compared to USA against South Africa on flats pitch .

 

[Mainul]

Athar Ali kan is full of nonsense .He claims bng is better team as they whitewashed eng on those paddy fields.no wonder bng team never improved. He does not even consider there are pitches outside mirpur.

Should not care what Athar says. I don't. Unfortunately there is no one to replace him

 

[sweep_shot]

Bangladesh huffed and puffed to around 140. Not bad considering they were going at 6 an over at one point.

 

[TheRock]

BD lost by 4 runs against South Africa. USA lost by 18 runs against South Africa.

Inappropriate comparison. New York pitch is easily one of the worst in the world. So, the margin of defeat would obviously be low, regardless of whether a minnow is playing or not. On flat pitches, it will go up.

 

[sweep_shot]

BD end up with 140/8 after 20 overs.

Aussies need 141 to win.

I think BD are 20 runs short on this pitch. Sluggish.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Well below par on this ground.

 

[TheRock]

Bangladesh: Once a minnow, Always a minnow

 

[jnaveen1980]

Easy win for Australia coming up .

Fair to say USA is more competitive than Bangladesh as they gave hard time to South Africa.

USA has massive six hitters. THey can change the game blink of an eye. USA has hit 34 sixes in this world cup. Second highest behind West Indies which has 44 sixes. Scotland also has hit 34 sixes. third Australia 32 sixes.

 

[jnaveen1980]

AUstralia will target the side where the wind blows.

 

[sweep_shot]

Seems to be raining. I hope it is not a washout.

 

[Devadwal]

Australia will chase this down early as they can to improve the NRR.

They can lost against india and Much improved Afghanistan side.

 

[Vikram1989]

Should not care what Athar says. I don't. Unfortunately there is no one to replace him

We should get an option to mute certain commentators for our health

 

[sweep_shot]

Australia will chase this down early as they can to improve the NRR.

They can lost against india and Kuvh improve Afghanistan side.

They could've chased it down in 12-14 overs if pitch was flat.

 

[BDfanforever]

Litton sucked the momentum out of this game. Has been out of form for a loong time, but still get selected because that's the best BD has to offer.

Haturu thinks he is some genius shuffling batting order everyday. 15 more runs would've made the game more interesting.

 

[jnaveen1980]

10.11pm Bangladesh never really went to fourth gear, let alone fifth gear. Hridoy was definitely the pick of the Bangladesh batters but Shanto's hand was crucial too. Another disappointing outing from Shakib.

4th gear? They never went to 3rd gear. one good six. Two pies from Stoinis dealt with. Otherwise hardly any acceleration
