Australia v Bangladesh | T20 Warm Up | Trent Bridge | 1/6/09

[Lodhiz]

Nice hit from Symonds.

 

[bdchamp20]

We are missing Razzak here.

 

[Mohsin]

I'm assuming the 'proper commentators' haven't arrived yet?

I'd much rather listen to the likes of Athar Ali Khan and Deano compared to these guys!

 

[Da Best]

All The Way!

 

[Mohsin]

AMAZING!
Thats just strength...6 more!

 

[Imr4n_Khan]

This is a very strong batting and fast bowling line up from Australia, but the spinning isnt that strong.

 

[bdchamp20]

Rasel bowling on leg-stump to Andrew Symonds...that is self-destruction.

 

[Imr4n_Khan]

Aus eyeing 200+

 

[Lodhiz]

Rasel bowling on leg-stump to Andrew Symonds...that is self-destruction.

Seconded on that. Why though?

 

[Mohsin]

6, 4, OUT

Symonds gone

 

[Lodhiz]

Wicket! Symonds gone, thank god!

 

[bdchamp20]

Riyad gets his third.

 

[bdchamp20]

Seconded on that. Why though?

Don't know! I would've thought Jamie Siddons would know where the Aussies liked to play their shots. And he would've talked on length about players like Symonds. Riyad gets his 4th!!!

 

[Lodhiz]

Third wicket down, but the Aussies are scoring at an above average rate. We are going to need to see some exceptional batting from B'desh. Let's hope this clinch this one.

 

[Mohsin]

Ponting gone!

WOW 4 now for Riyad!

 

[Oxy]

Aussie in slow bowler / spinner shocker!!!

Ponting gone!

4 wkts down

 

[Lodhiz]

Riyad's sending them down two at a time! How did Ponting fall? This streaming channel is too slow.

 

[siccric]

Riyad might break Gul's record here, only for Gul to win it back in the next match Inshallah

 

[Lodhiz]

Riyad might break Gul's record here, only for Gul to win it back in the next match Inshallah

How much runs has Riyad given away?

 

[Da Best]

Is Pakistan playing right after Bangladesh?

 

[bdchamp20]

These aren't official T20s so records won't count.

 

[Oxy]

Is Pakistan playing right after Bangladesh?

5.30pm - UK

 

[siccric]

These aren't official T20s so records won't count.

Oh yeah, sorry. my mistake

 

[siccric]

5.30pm - UK

What time is it in UK right now? Cricinfo doesn't show local times on the scorecards anymore...

 

[Mohsin]

I'm off for some revision at school, enjoy the match guys!

And its 14:30 in the UK right now

 

[bdchamp20]

Rubel is the fastest bowler in Bangladesh. Got some good pace in todays match. Needs more control. Last ball 142 ks.

 

[Oxy]

What time is it in UK right now? Cricinfo doesn't show local times on the scorecards anymore...

2.32 pm and 38 secs

 

[Oxy]

5 wkts down

 

[Saj]

Aussies piling on the runs.

 

[Oxy]

6 down for 204 off 18.2 overs

 

[Lodhiz]

If only Bangladesh were doing this earlier in the match.

 

[Saj]

The body language of this BD team is awful. They really do hate fielding.

 

[Da Best]

219 total.

 

[Oxy]

Think BD will be skittled out for under 80

 

[Couch Cricketer]

great start for bangladesh 2 fours on the first 2 balls

 

[Oxy]

Although 14 off the 1st 5 balls! Bracken being tonked!

 

[Couch Cricketer]

Bracken is being smashed

 

[bdchamp20]

44..6
Tamim!!

 

[Oxy]

18 off 1 over

 

[bdchamp20]

18 off the first over. Tamim Iqbal!!

 

[Couch Cricketer]

looks like Aus didn,t score to many after all

 

[Oxy]

Now Lee smacked for 4 1st ball

 

[Oxy]

Beamer from Lee! Chest High - and gets away with it??? WHY?

 

[Oxy]

Now hit for a 1 hand boundary!!

26-0 off 9 balls!

 

[Ayyub]

tamim iqbal is awesome player ....somebody like shaheer nafees should be his partner...will be awesome to watch...

 

[Oxy]

Short pitched - aimed at the throat! NICE!

 

[Ayyub]

junaid is still young and has lot of to offer..

 

[bdchamp20]

Take that Brett Lee!!! Awesome reply!

 

[Oxy]

Anothe 4 smashed off Lee!

30-0 off 11 balls!

 

[Lodhiz]

Seems the pitch was helping Australia do damage, now it's Bangladesh's turn!

 

[Oxy]

30-0 off 2 overs

 

[Oxy]

A 7 ball over??

 

[Ayyub]

30 runs in just 2 overs awesome...india watch out tigers are hungry

 

[Oxy]

31-0 off 2 overs.

Must have been a no ball that the broadcasters missed

 

[Oxy]

Mitchell Johnson hits 89.3 MPH 1st up

 

[IAJ]

LOL, bangladesh dismissing everything to the boundaries. These two look dangerous.

 

[Ali888]

Ha Ha Bangles pailing the Aussie bowlers

 

[IAJ]

91,8 m/hr, gone huh

 

[hashman]

Seems the pitch was helping Australia do damage, now it's Bangladesh's turn!

Again showing why we can not possibly afford to have three, let alone two of the following members at the top of the order.

Salman butt
Ahmez Shehzad
Younus Khan.

 

[Lodhiz]

I'm absolutely loving this, Bangladesh are looking ferocious! This truly is an indication of how far they have come in T20's at least!

 

[Oxy]

...and then shatters the stumps with a 91.8 mph thunderbolt

31-1 off 2.1 overs

 

[Lodhiz]

Ah Bangladesh faltering here slightly. They shouldn't stop applying the pressure!

 

[Zahid87]

Johnson shows his class. Him and Steyn are the best around as far as fast bowling is concerned.

 

[Lodhiz]

Johnson shows his class. Him and Steyn are the best around as far as fast bowling is concerned.

I think Johnson is going to do well this tournament. Everyone keeps talking about Gul, but i'd put my money on Johnson.

 

[Zahid87]

Tamim looks class. If he was Pakistani would he get into our team?

EDIT: I knew I shouldn't have said anything....sorry!

 

[Da Best]

Gone!

 

[Lodhiz]

Ah, there goes another one. Not looking too good now.

 

[Ayyub]

50 runs in 5 overs only 2 outs....awesome start

 

[Ali888]

49-2 after 5 overs

Bangles exceeding expectations

 

[Zahid87]

Not an awesome start. Awesome first 2 overs. After that they have lost their best player in Tamim and got behind the rate. I expected a bit more from the Bongs in T20. They certainly have the talent (I think that if palyers like Shakib and Tamim, and even Ashraful played for India or Pakistan they would be labelled the next 'legend') but such a lack of application is criminal; in T20 they can get away with this and give a good game.

Really want them to cause a few upsets. Could have an all asian final 4 with Pak, India, SL and Bangla one day.

 

[Couch Cricketer]

they are playing sensibly they dont need to go loose more wickets if they need 50-55 in the last 4 overs they can still make them

 

[Ayyub]

92 runs in 9 overs awesome only 2 outs...go tiger go

 

[Ayyub]

captain gone but still shakib is there wow

 

[Ayyub]

Mahmudullah is more of a khuraam manzoor type player ..

 

[Ayyub]

96 runs in 10 overs 3 wickets gone.............they still have chance..

 

[ihsandar]

Total96 for 3 in 10 overs) Bangladesh need 124 runs in 60 balls

 

[Ayyub]

105 runs in 11 overs only 3 out......well playing.......still mortaza to come

 

[Zahid87]

Lol Umpires kept Shakib in. Couldn't tell that he was bowled not stumped.

 

[pakcricketfan]

Shakib-ul-Hasan is playing well.. He's my only favorite cricketer from BD..

 

[ihsandar]

Total (127 for 3 in 12.1 overs) Bangladesh need 93 runs in 47 balls
