Bangladesh vs Australia | ICC World T20: 11th Match | Group A | Bridgetown | 5/5/2010

[Dr_Bassim]

People are forgetting that Bangladesh's batting in general sucks. Australia arleady have enough on the board.

Shakib ul Hasan can single handedly win matches. i have seen him bat.
Anything less than 120 and we are out

 

[imshally81]

only rain can safe us

 

[pops]

whatever score Australia make whihc now looks like a low score, Bangladesh will take time and overs to make it which will not impact Australia NRR even if they lose.

This is the worst possible situation for Pakistan.

 

[Atif]

5th gone

 

[imshally81]

5th goneeeeee

 

[cricketpassion]

5 gone WTH

 

[Pak_Power]

another one goes!!

 

[IAJ]

57-5!!! what is happening!!!!!????

 

[Mo.]

So looks like we're going home.

Was fun while it lasted eh?

 

[mon858]

No no. Imagine if Aus got all out for 85 and Bang chased it it 14 overs we would be in with Bang

i agree with this - but the only problem is
a) aus will likely get more
b) ban have no incentive to get the total in 14 overs, they would rather get their total comfortably and ensure second round

 

[chui_kadoo]

5 down. Another stupid shot. This is getting serious

 

[The Slogger]

5th down

 

[Dubawi]

david hussey gone.....well played

 

[dhump]

57/5

 

[cricketpassion]

I think we are going home .

 

[Desi]

Wow...just wow.

 

[IMMY69]

If Bang chase aroudn 14 overs

My friend, even if they are chasing 70 runs, they'll take their time and do it in 17 or 18...there is absolutely no need for them to go reckless..

and 5 down

 

[Dr_Bassim]

whatever score Australia make whihc now looks like a low score, Bangladesh will take time and overs to make it which will not impact Australia NRR even if they lose.

This is the worst possible situation for Pakistan.

Exactly .. they are never gonna chase down anything in 13 overs just to knock Aus out...

They have done their homework. We didnt...

 

[Boi]

We are gone...)

 

[lakha84]

`1 more gone

 

[uzy99]

[iRfaN_LA]

I bet AUS will put up a small total and BD will make it in 15-19 overs. Its FIXED.

 

[Sledger]

Some real am-drams going on here atm. Wait for Aus to be 60/5 before you panic.

Start panicking.

 

[Pak_Power]

Pakistan chances are not looking good..

Is this the same ausie side who thrashed Pak!!!

 

[imshally81]

my man hussey in the middle

 

[pops]

any chance of accelaration from Australia after their slow start is gone now. They will play a calculated innings now to reach somewhere around 100 and then let BD chase that in 17th or 18th over.

 

[Joy Bangla]

Only Rain can save Ozs i mean pakistan

 

[cricketcrazy]

is it me or Aus does not want us in Super 8?

 

[tahaqureshi]

What a farce this game is.

 

[mon858]

only rain can safe us

look with so much time remaining, even if ban get 5 overs, that will be MORE THAN ENOUGH to get whatever TINY total needed, but NOT ENOUGH to reduce AUS run-rate below PAK. SO RAIN CANNOT SAVE US - unless it RAINS WHOLE DAY (unlikely)

 

[Kriketer]

Australia playing very irresponsibly. Come on Bangla brothers get them all out under 80 runs and chase down that target in 10 overs.

 

[chui_kadoo]

The pak team might as well book there flight tickets

Australia | 5/58 | 11 Overs

 

[ajamaica]

This is the worst possible situation for Pakistan.

I agree - this looks like the worst possible scenario

 

[BoomBoomCricket]

If the Aussies lose big they may knock themselves out

 

[iRfaN_LA]

all over for Pak. Pack you bags boys.

 

[desi_boy]

another one bites the dust, david hussey gone.........and Australia imploding......what are the chances Australia actually wins this game?

 

[Rizwan25]

lagai naa meri buduaaaa !!!!

 

[JilaWatan]

lets say AUS is all out for 90....and bd does it under 15 overs...does pak qualify?

 

[WNC]

Oh boy....I hope for a whirlwind partnership now that takes the score up to about something that'll go down to the wire in Bangla's innings....

 

[asifp]

Its all Salman Butt's fault.

his fielding is biting us in the butt

 

[Dare2Dream]

Bangla showing brains by bowling those bouncers while Pakistani squad had left their brains in the dressing room while Afridi went through his pre made plans with Hafeez et al.

 

[Sparhawk]

Are Australia throwing the match?

 

[ace58]

The way this is going it looks like australia might be going home. Anybody good with number? I know that if the aussies loose by alot then pakistan and bangladesh will be through.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

no one can complain ...

We had our chances.. should have gone for 170

If we leave everything to fate , this is what happens.

 

[IAJ]

Mr. Cricket!!! Show the world why you are called that. These two need a solid partnership, just take the signles and twos till the 15th over.

 

[wanted_desi]

Australian players done by the bounce
hahaha

 

[BDwarriors]

PPers are great, some wish for 60-5, its done. some wish for S butt to out before 20 run, its done. some wish PK to be out from world cup, its on the wayyyyyy

 

[SohailQureshi]

looks like were heading home guys

 

[Kriketer]

Dont worry guys..australia is heading home

 

[WithLoveFromCanada]

Michael hussey and craig white are there....hopefully they will get a 60 run partnership and save our souls.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

This is a disgrace.

 

[Mo.]

If the Aussies lose big they may knock themselves out

They arent going to lose big because Bangladesh will take their time getting the runs

 

[Cracket]

I bet AUS will put up a small total and BD will make it in 15-19 overs. Its FIXED.

lol, you sound like me after the Aus Pak match in Champions Trophy! )




) ) ) ) )

 

[JilaWatan]

Dont worry guys..australia is heading home

how

 

[cricketpassion]

Ya Allah Barish Ho jai AAMIN

 

[Kriketer]

to be fair to Bangladesh, they are bowling pretty well

 

[chui_kadoo]

Are Australia throwing the match?

It def looks like that way. Playing like minnows

 

[MajidBhuta-AamirFan]

my man hussey in the middle

This match looks clearly fixed.

Its 100% fixed!.. this is totally ****.. aussies are playing what a nonsense cricket.. what a clever move by aussies.

 

[asifp]

lets say AUS is all out for 90....and bd does it under 15 overs...does pak qualify?

if aussi get 90, then Bang need runs in the 13.5 overs

 

[Dare2Dream]

lets say AUS is all out for 90....and bd does it under 15 overs...does pak qualify?

If that happens then it will depend on the NRR of Aus vs. Pak, but Bangla will be through.

 

[MIG]

And just to cheer you all up:

 

[classic]

i'm surprised the commentators have not raised these questions.....lol

 

[asifp]

This match looks clearly fixed.

Its 100% fixed!.. this is totally ****.. aussies are playing what a nonsense cricket.. what a clever move by aussies.

no way its fixed.

Get real seriously

WE are the only ones to blame.

 

[Batman]

Australia | 5/63 | 12 Overs

 

[chui_kadoo]

Aussies have a good run rate. They wont be going home. No way Bangladesh will chase this within 15 overs

 

[dhump]

12 overs 63/5

 

[Dr_Bassim]

lets say AUS is all out for 90....and bd does it under 15 overs...does pak qualify?

Who says Bangla will do 90 in 13 overs ..... its 13 overs to knock aus out.. They wud be dumb to try it

 

[tahaqureshi]

any chance of accelaration from Australia after their slow start is gone now. They will play a calculated innings now to reach somewhere around 100 and then let BD chase that in 17th or 18th over.

They're taking a risk though. If Ashraful or Sakib get into the groove, they may win by a margin too large for Australia to qualify into the Super 8s

 

[khalil1986]

Michael hussey and craig white are there....hopefully they will get a 60 run partnership and save our souls.

LOL @ Craig White

 

[Sparhawk]

If the Aussies lose big they may knock themselves out

Does anyone have the numbers on this? Because we didn't lose by a huge margin to Australia.

 

[IMMY69]

lets say AUS is all out for 90....and bd does it under 15 overs...does pak qualify?

I think Paks would then qualify, but why on earth would Bdesh go hell to leather to try and win it inside 15 overs when they have 19 overs to do it in?????

Aussies will also play a containing game to ensure Bdesh done score the winning runs until they are safe..

 

[uzy99]

it seems to me that Aus can't be knocked out even if they lose. So a low total and BDesh win will be the end of the road for us

 

[insaaniyat]

is it me or Aus does not want us in Super 8?

No, we didn't want us in super 8. They will do what is in their best interest. PPer here didn't want to believe BD can pull out an upset. Now watch the upset in the making.

 

[classic]

come on Ravi ...raise some question ...i'm 100% sure if Pakistan were playing to loose there would be all sort of accusations flying about ...

 

[Sledger]

Very entertaining game so far, I must say.

 

[imshally81]

don't lose hope guyz
match is still on
this crazy game of cricket

 

[WithLoveFromCanada]

LOL @ Craig White

apologies - cameroon white haha
