Bangladesh (115/2) hammer Pakistan (114) by eight wickets in ODI series opener

[JaDed]

So proud of BD, I just wish a white wash on same footing.

You still need to back your team.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Do these games have any relevance like world cup qualification? Recently England had to fight for it.

 

[Devadwal]

Haha ....the world is not lost or over. Still plenty to play for. Embarrassment in bilaterals are the best thing to happen for any side, instead of tourny embarrassments

But Pakistan is facing humiliating defeats in both tournaments and bilateral series.

Pakistan can still win the series.

I expect Pakistan to come back hard next game.

Agree. Bilaterals don't count a lot nowadays. These used to count before Dalmiya messed up cricket with overcommercialization.

 

[globetrotter]

Finally Bangladesh takes the revenge of backstabbing by PCB

 

[The Bald Eagle]

You still need to back your team.

There can't be any better backing... although for youngsters they certainly need extended rope irrespective of results.

BD did it!! More from where that came from, Abishek, Amitabh, Ishan- are you watching…?!

India haven't won an ODI series in Bangladesh since 2014.

They lost 1-2 in 2015 and 1-2 in 2022. They lost 2 ODI series in a row in Bangladesh.

They should come now. I expect India to lose both Test series and ODI series in Bangladesh. They have declined in Test and ODI.

The same young guns failed miserably against England lions as well, I guess we don’t have any talent at all.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Any chance they thought it was T20? lol Did someone say it wsa ODIs?

 

[Nikhil_cric]

The same young guns failed miserably against England lions as well, I guess we don’t have any talent at all.

And after another random U19/Emerging Cup win by Pakistan , you'll claim that PAK domestic is brimming with talent, brother.

Mirpuri pitches reward poor technique. It’s rigged against top teams like India.

When Pakistan won the emerging Asia cup @Rana non Stop doing Bhangra and tagging me that Maaz is next level player , our next generation player will defeat the india blah blah blah. ..

But these day's he is hiding in a cave when I tagged him ...chuja ban gya hai. ....fir se. .

 

[sithb]

Why do you guys do this to yourself ?

 

[khyberlion]

You forgot to add a random 120k bowler bowling 145kph.

 

[globetrotter]

Moral of the story..... without Babar Pakistan is zero

 

[Fanboy375]

But not in TRI series
That's why TRI series doesn't happen nowadays because of fear of Pak /s

 

[Prince of Dorne]

Congratulations @sweep_shot bhai

Well done for beating us.

But we will get revenge in the next game

You are a Pak fan?

Yes BD did it yay !

The names that you mentioned I am sure they had nothing better to do and were glued to the tv to watch 'El Pathetico'.

 

[sweep_shot]

When will India tour Bangladesh for a 2-match Test series?

Great opportunity to get a 2-0 Test series win over India.

Even Zimbabwe, Ireland, and Afghanistan should fancy beating India in Test now.

 

[globetrotter]

Without Babar Pakistan team have no future

This comment is gold

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

I don't think India are favorites for ODI WC or WTC. Not in the next 50 years.

India haven't won it since 2011. They have mostly won Mickey Mouse Events and Dalmiya events like World T20s and CTs.

So pak winning 2017 ct is also a mickey mouse delmia event ?

 

[Devadwal]

Wasn't they lost the Tri series just before the ICC champion trophy 2025 ?

Do we need validation from GUMP lol We have been the LOI giants for the last 15 years in big tournaments.

It’s fine for Rana to do Bhangra he is a poster here, it was weird the entire Pak administration doing bhangra

 

[jnaveen1980]

This series seems like a great PR for Babar Azam possibly Saim Ayub . When you are not part of the side you obviously become the most important person when your team is not doing well.

 

[guard]

It's so painful to be a fan of the Pakistan cricket team these days, isn't it?

What Team??..as this juncture they’re a bunch of amateurs. I hope the team newbies improve..

 

[sweep_shot]

Indian posters are being salty as usual.

 

[ads101]

not sure about this point...batsmen let you down and they chase in 12 overs what about the bowling. one guys is throwing thunderbolts at 150kph and we have trundlers..

Bowling did bad too. But even if they bowled great you can’t do much with that sort of total.

Shaheen’s bowling isn’t great either and should get criticism.

But purely as a captain not much you can do with defending 100 or so. For any captain it’s just a terrible start and not his fault as captain. If we want him to become a long term captain, this wasn’t the way to start it.

 

[JaDed]

I’ll wait for other games…

 

[shah9425]

This team is finished pretty much

 

[Sachin fan]

You don't know what salty means, do you?

Moral of the story..... without Babar Pakistan is zero

When babar was laying egg in world t20, rizwan was the hero. Now rizwan is laying egg then babar is the hero.

You Rizbar fans have this clever tactic which you think fools people.

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

He has better FC and domestic record then everyone bar Rizwan. So let me guess everyone is a parchi according to your logic?

Why don't have have the same tone for the other players? I call it hypocrisy.

Yaar you are new here. Go and search my posts i use these for all. Players and this is the reality.

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Pakistan can still win the series.

I expect Pakistan to come back hard next game.

Like seriously , same pitch and venue... 3-0 is on the cards , BD have shown that this Pak team is a no match to them..

Getting them bundled for 115 and chasing that in 15 overs is simply what India/Aus/Eng/NZ/SA would do for low level associate team on full force.. Now BD have done that for Pak with 9 wkts and 35 overs to spare this should be the biggest victories that BD have achieved against any top test playing nation that has been playing cricket for 60-70 years now...

Pak and PCB should end all their cricket and go home ...

 

[jnaveen1980]

HOw is the team combo for Pkaistan? same bits and pieces players?

 

[zahid01]

Good phainty for the boys pcb needs to pick players on merit and give them a chance to settle these bits and bob cowboys have had enough chances

He is not suited for long term captain... He doesnt have a calm demeanour and run thru his emotions quickly

Thanks.

they are selected to fail miserably like this and will pave the way for the senior hawks to come back in the next series after the PSL.. #technologya

Well also in a way i feel Shafiq, Imam, Babar , Saim , Fakhar are better players in ODIs than these lot anyways

 

[ask_analyse_act]

I’ll wait for other games…

3-0

 

[ask_analyse_act]

Battle of minnows..... this series will decide who is at 4th and 5th place in Asia.

The top 3 steams in Asia are .....
1) India.... also World No.1
2) Afghanistan
3) Srilanka

Pakistan wants no.5

Serious how many times do I have to clue guys like you in? I know you are a Sachin fan, but even you are smart enough to realize the glory of the Quad.

Stop messing with PCB and their current path. Let morarji desai influence leave your intellect and actions

 

[Error404]

Yea given the current ratings it's between Bangladesh and Windies to get an automatic qualification.

Only realistic choice we have right now unless Shadab gets back form.

I agree with others, Agha should have been made odi captain and Shaheen t20. Maybe they can still switch.

We need to have a strong long term captain. This musical chairs with captaincy is hurting our team.

Its easier to transition from Agha ..so that captaincy shift to Shadab will be easy from Agha

 

[jnaveen1980]

watch a pak podcast lol So basically Pakistan got bounced out on mirpur pitch by a bangladesh bowler. Imagine them at SA against top bowlers.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

@sweep_shot is a funny poster.

He is more excited about Pakistan potentially winning next 2 games then Bangladesh actually thrashing Pakistan.

I think BD's best ODI win was when they won an ODI series in South Africa. They won by 9 wickets in the 3rd ODI and clinched the series 2-1.

BD winning a series in South Africa was really a pleasant surprise.

[ads101]

Am pretty convinced shadab is our best captaincy choice. Young enough, good PSL record, spinner so won’t get injured much and he’s the choice PCB have actually been grooming. But you have to first be good enough to make the team. Shadab has regressed too much. I hope he gets form back as I think it will put an end to this captaincy circus. Shaheen regardless about mentality or captaincy skills is a fast bowler with injury problems. That alone makes him a bad fit for captaincy.

Agha’s failed so badly in t20s that it makes me hesitant now to make him odi captain. But yes still in the current predicament I would take an Agha and Shaheen swap on captaincies. At least Agha deserves a place in Odis. But Agha getting odi captaincy as well on top of t20s? Just not sure about that, he’s already struggling too much in t20s.

So .. Pakistan losing to Bangladesh is becoming a regular thing now ?

 

[sweep_shot]

So .. Pakistan losing to Bangladesh is becoming a regular thing now ?

Pakistan whitewashed BD in Pakistan last year. Pakistan also beat Bangladesh in Asia Cup semi-final. Pakistan generally beat Bangladesh very easily.

It is only in BD where Pakistan is struggling to win. But, other teams also struggle in Bangladesh (including India who lost 2 ODI series in a row in BD).

Mirpur ground is cricket's Bermuda Triangle.
