Bangladesh [330/6] beat South Africa [309/8] by 21 runs in the group stage of the 2019 World Cup

[jnaveen1980]

Wrong just wrong. You can't go back to that ball.

 

[Hasan123]

Good call to bring Miller on. Gets a left and right hand combination. Also he will be able to improve the run rate.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Miller should bat at 6

 

[Valkyrie™]

Brilliant bowling this. He noticed the gap the last ball and executed perfectly.

 

[Kianig89]

Bangladesh the 2nd best Asian side after India

 

[Hasan2K8]

Wohoo! Shakib got his 200th wicket in ODI

 

[fuadomar]

Shakib.

The fastest player to take 250 wickets and scored 5500+ runs in the history of ODI.

Such a legend (and hugely underrated by the fans outside of Bangladesh)

 

[Kianig89]

Will be embarrassing Bdesh will defeat Pak and Sl comprehensive ly

 

[Hasan123]

Bangladesh have choked in winning positions before lol. I think a lot of posters have forgotten that.

 

[Kianig89]

AFG SL Pak the minnows of WC

 

[Imran Hasan]

Doesn’t he bowl?

He has some injury so that he can only bat. Otherwise he would be very ideal in this condition. Saikat also bowls well.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Pressure on !! you can start seeing more funny things from SA.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Brilliant bowling this. He noticed the gap the last ball and executed perfectly.

This was your first post in 4 years......

 

[Kianig89]

Sa Wi Nz Bang fighting for 4th spot

 

[Chokli]

Shakib.

If he was Pakistani imagine how much they would have hyped him.

 

[jnaveen1980]

BD should not take the foot off the pedal. BD winning here will help Pakistan in a big way. Pak doesn't have to beat SA they just have to beat BD.

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Sa Wi Nz Bang fighting for 4th spot

We’re fighting with Afghanistan for 9th spot

 

[Kianig89]

Cricket had flourished in BD but since the launch of PSL Pakistan team has declined

 

[jnaveen1980]

Pakistan vs BD will be mighty entertainng.

 

[Syed1]

That's handy

 

[Kianig89]

We’re fighting with Afghanistan for 9th spot

So true that will be our playoff AfG vs Pak

 

[Kianig89]

Pakistan need some magic wand

 

[light]

250 for shakib

 

[jnaveen1980]

what a cute boy lol

 

[fuadomar]

Shakib scored fifty in the first match he played in all the world cups(2007, 2011, 2015, 2019)

53 vs. Indian in 2007
55 vs. India in 2011
63 vs. Afghanistan in 2015
75 vs South Africa in 2019

 

[Chokli]

what a cute boy lol

Haha yes.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Why is Miller standing deep inside the crease.

 

[light]

Shakib.

The fastest player to take 250 wickets and scored 5500+ runs in the history of ODI.

Such a legend (and hugely underrated by the fans outside of Bangladesh)

Just checked his stats in Cricinfo. Has a 5-wicket haul vs all test teams in test. Definitely underrated

 

[Kianig89]

Cheering for BDesh

 

[Kianig89]

SA playing in Away kit

 

[jnaveen1980]

Miller is in horrendous form. Not sure he can turn it on against slow bowlers on this track. He is already circumspect.

 

[Ronaldo7]

So true that will be our playoff AfG vs Pak

Anthony Joshua just got beaten by a boxer the same size as Mohammad Shahzad. If he can win, pakistan can also make the semis.

 

[Kianig89]

Pakistan team combo is not right

Missing a jaali allrounder like Afridi and iceman like Nisbah

 

[Syed1]

RRR inching towards 8 and Miller sahab dead batting balls like Misbah

 

[jnaveen1980]

Faf will be under pressure because of Miller. He might lose his wicket in the process

 

[Kianig89]

Anwar Ali should have been picked

 

[Hasan123]

Bangladesh will have to go back to their pacers eventually. South Africa need to ensure they have a set batter batting at that point.

 

[jnaveen1980]

ball just skids off.. lol Why does he keep going right back.

 

[ishtiaq_ctg]

It'll be a great shock if SA win this match now because
1. Pitch,is playing a bit slow
2. Its bloody worldcup match where SA always finds a way to lose

 

[jnaveen1980]

211 in 27 overs !!!

 

[Kianig89]

Pakistan team combo is not right

Missing a jaali allrounder like Afridi and iceman like Nisbah

Boxing and cricket are very different cricket is a collective sport and wehave. Too much garbage/baggage

 

[Syed1]

Saffer employ Pak technique of keeping wickets in hand and going hard at the end. That strategy is outdated by atleast a decade. I see BD winning this.

 

[jnaveen1980]

It'll be a great shock if SA win this match now because
1. Pitch,is playing a bit slow
2. Its bloody worldcup match where SA always finds a way to lose����

As long as Faf is there, they will be in with a chance.

 

[Kianig89]

Bdesh will win mster

 

[jnaveen1980]

They have to adopt Kohli method or even the Australian method y day. 1s, 2s, 1s, 2s. keep ticking Punish the bad ball. Not enough 2s from these guys.

 

[Hasan123]

Miller is such a talented player. It's a mystery at why at his age he isn't a regular. He should be winning more games than he does.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Timing is all gone. Not the sweet timer we used to see.

 

[Chokli]

Big blunder not playing Rubel

 

[jnaveen1980]

Big blunder not playing Rubel

you don't need. Infact they will like pace on the ball. They are comfortable against slow ball.

 

[Joseph Gomes]

Faf is SAF's only hope. Rest can't bat to save their lives.

 

[Invincible Gujjar]

Francois du plesis is playing a gem of knock here

 

[Hasan123]

Faf may accelerate over these next couple of overs.

 

[DeadBall]

Better than Stokes catch.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Faf stands in between BD and win. He played all his home matches at Chepauk this season IPL where ball was turning big. This is nothing.

 

[light]

SA seems to be playing cautiously and waiting for Shakib to finish his overs. Wrong decision if you ask me. Not keeping up the tempo could cost them the match later

 

[Hasan123]

Timing is all gone. Not the sweet timer we used to see.

Out of touch. He will be important for SA after the WC as a lot of experienced batters won't be around in ODIs.

 

[Omer2002]

batting paradise this southadruca bat till 9 pretty simple chase this

 

[Hasan123]

Miller will surely target this over.

 

[Joseph Gomes]

Faf is an absolute gun ODI player. Him and De Kock are the only world class cricketers for SA in this world cup. Tahir and Amla have declined, rest are average to mediocre.

 

[jeetu]

Shakib.

The fastest player to take 250 wickets and scored 5500+ runs in the history of ODI.

Such a legend (and hugely underrated by the fans outside of Bangladesh)

Shakib became the 5th bowler to achieve feat of 5000 runs ans 200 wickets

Player	Mat	Runs	Bat Av	100	Wkts	Bowl Av	5W	Ave Diff
ST Jayasuriya (Asia/SL)	445	13430	32.36	28	323	36.75	4	-4.39

[Invincible Gujjar]

Well done francois

 

[Runner Up]

What a Shot by Skipper.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Faf is taking the chances against bowlers since Miller is settling in.

 

[Dios]

Bowling again letting Bangladesh down. Only Shakib and Fizz have turned up.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Best pressure batsman in SA history !! Faf !

 

[Hasan123]

Miller could get going if he times a few to the boundary.

 

[Imran Hasan]

The match is slipping away from Bd.

 

[jnaveen1980]

They have to deny strike to Faf. Otherwise he will be running away with it. Either you get him out or keep him off the strike.

 

[pakpassfan]

Easy for SA, you guys are so pessimists. This Ban team will only win against SL as Brandon M predicted

Pak will also win easily

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

What an ugly bowling action

 

[jnaveen1980]

Miller could get going if he times a few to the boundary.

Still playing everything to third man. Still waiting for one good connection from him through midwicket.

 

[Joseph Gomes]

Best pressure batsman in SA history !! Faf !

He's arguably the second/third best ODI batsman for SA after ABD, and or Gibbs. Has played many dominant to shocking knocks. Faf also has many gears unlike Amla, he can really turn the game around when he wants.

 

[Nil Dhumrojal]

Bd loosing it

 

[Joseph Gomes]

Easy for SA, you guys are so pessimists. This Ban team will only win against SL as Brandon M predicted

Pak will also win easily

Pak doesn't have a single batsman of Faf's calibar. Not even Babar.

 

[Imran Hasan]

Can Miraz take one wicket here?

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

poor shot

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

That's the game for BD. Massive wicket.

 

[Hasan123]

Faf misses a straight one.

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

Can Miraz take one wicket here?

Wish fullfilled.

 

[Imran Hasan]

I knew it I knew it. Du plesis gone.
