Shame his fellow countryman Adam Pakore is so bitter about the way he was consistently ravaged by them.

:younis :younis :younis :younis

yes, he is right.

This is how Pak should play during power plays to give them a chance in these pitches.

India, SL both used their powerplays very well. Most of the matches in the series they completed 100 runs in first 15 overs.

 

[Garuda]

hahaha. Jaya is singing


13.6 Abdur Razzak to Jayasuriya, FOUR, of all the balls to bowl, Razzak slips in a full toss well outside off and Sanath smashes to cover boundary.
13.5 Abdur Razzak to Jayasuriya, SIX, And so Sanath goes down town. He skips down the track and heaves it over long-on.
Now a deep backward square leg is in place
13.4 Abdur Razzak to Jayasuriya, FOUR, thrust his front leg across to the off side and swings a full delivery to deep square leg boundary.
13.3 Abdur Razzak to Jayasuriya, FOUR, not all that short but Jayasuriya goes right back and plays his short-

Bangladesh giving lots of presents to Jaya on his birthday.

[Garuda]

What is the projected score for SL?

[Garuda]

400 looks possible today.

 

[volcyz]

400 looks possible today.

Nah their middle order ain't that good...

 

[lollol]

Sanath Jayasuriya is the second oldest player to score a one-day hundred after Geoffrey Boycott, who scored 105 against Australia in sydney when he was 39 years and 51 days old.

 

[fair_dinkum]

sanath to get a double?

 

[lollol]

The madman still holds the record

 

[lollol]

And he gets his 3rd 100 in this asia cup.... well done

 

[Dhonian]

Good tournament for batsmen lol...

 

[12thMan]

Jayasuriya got out when SL was 201 but what a difference between the two batsmen

1st Wicket: 200 runs in 169 balls (ST Jayasuriya 130, KC Sangakkara 64, Ex 6)

 

[12thMan]

Vaas gets his 396th ODI wicket.
Tamim Iqbal out
Bangladesh 10-1 after 4.5 overs

4.5 Vaas to Tamim Iqbal, OUT, And Tamim is gone. Vaas gets it to curve away off a length, Tamim tries to dab it to third man but edges it behind to Dilshan. Remember, Dilshan is the 'keeper. Sanga has not taken the field
Tamim Iqbal c Dilshan b Vaas 8 (15b 1x4 0x6) SR: 53.33

 

[12thMan]

Bangladesh 95-2 after 16.2 overs @ 5.81
Last 5 ovs 42/1 RR 8.40

first over of Mendis went for 11 runs with a six and four

 

[12thMan]

Nazimuddin 47(59) runout. Big blow to Bangladesh with Ashraful already out
Bangladesh 96-3

 

[bdchamp20]

EDIT

 

[bdchamp20]

After his horrendous run I'm surprised Nazimuddin is playing, I thought Shahriar or Mehrab Jr. would play instead of him. Anyway he made most of his opportunity with a 47 unlucky he couldn't get a 50.

 

[TruSachFan]

that was seriously pathetic running from nazimuddin there.

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

Did i just hear Wasim Akram say Kids are studying too much in Pakistan?
