Bermuda v Bangladesh [Match 24 / Group B] - Updates

[Saj]

An all important game for BD and of course India.

BD have won the toss and put Bermuda in.

41 overs per side.

 

[Windistan]

this reduction favors bermuda a lot. Now, I might they have a slight chance to upset bangla.

 

[12thMan]

Mashrafe to bowl

 

[Easa]

Bermuda have no chance. Them along with Netherlands are the two worst teams in the competion, in my opinion. Scotland give the two a run for their money as well.

 

[Easa]

Mortaza to bowl the first over.

 

[12thMan]

first man down ct at long leg
Ber 2-1

 

[12thMan]

[Oxy]

If this turns into a 20-20 game - I fancy the Bermuda Triangles to win.

 

[12thMan]

rain and they go off the field.
Ber 6-1 after 3 overs

 

[12thMan]

If this turns into a 20-20 game - I fancy the Bermuda Triangles to win.

it will be intresting to see how D/L will work if after few overs it does become 20 over a side match. the target is likely to be moved up for Bang but by how much???

 

[Oxy]

There is a rain day set aside tomorrow.

 

[12thMan]

and there was a reserve day in Pak-Zim match but after 10 overs of Zim innings they made it 20 overs fro Zim needing 16 runs an over. going by that they will reduce the overs as much as they can today and then continue tomorrow

 

[Easa]

They should start the game again tomorrow instead of making it a Twenty over farce. It just defeats the purpose.

 

[PlanetPakistan]

They should start the game again tomorrow instead of making it a Twenty over farce. It just defeats the purpose.

then what if it rains all day tomorrow?

 

[pakhimmat]

then bang is trough becuase each team will get 1 point and india is out then

 

[crick786]

covers seem to be comming off for now

 

[12thMan]

today is a different day as tomorrow is a rest day, or I guess travelling day for a few. until yesterday there were two matches each day and playing the game on reserve day ment 3 games that day. now someone will probably miss watching one game unless broadcasters has 3 channels ready

next game March 27 WI vs Aus

 

[crick786]

play to resume at 12:55 local time

 

[sohaib17]

[Oxy]

The legendary 'Welsh Bermudan' comes out to bat

 

[Rob H]

This Pitcher is complete trash. He couldnt hit a football.

 

[12thMan]

11-2 after 5 overs

 

[kashmiri]

is the welsh bermudan, bermudan or welsh

 

[Rob H]

out, hemp goes for duck hitting it straight to point. Oh dear.

 

[12thMan]

HE "I am a batsman" MP out he averages 31 and made 50 against India too
11-3 after 5.4

 

[SUPERSAMI]

3 down, another nail in the coffin

 

[12thMan]

the captain Romaine is in. can he remain

 

[Saj]

I think the hundreds if not thousands of Indian fans who have travelled to the Caribbean had better sell their tickets and start booking their flights home.

 

[pak4life]

85mph not bad

 

[Rob H]

covers are coming on. 17/3

 

[classic]

looks like its gonna be a 20/20 match...bangla should clean up from here

 

[tigerPassion]

They should start the game again tomorrow instead of making it a Twenty over farce. It just defeats the purpose.

If the match isn't completed today, play will resume from the same position tomorrow

 

[Rob H]

The Bermudans are playing for the draw

 

[Rob H]

4 for Pitcher

 

[Rob H]

4 down the ground to Romaine. Good stuff Bermuda

 

[Eternal]

Hahah this is turning out to be a cracker of a game. Let's go BANGA!

 

[Rob H]

4 more down the ground, this time all along the carpet.

 

[Rob H]

out lbw. Romaine is gone to the quicker ball from Razzak.

 

[Eternal]

Romaine another four! Bermuda putting up a show!

 

[classic]

at this rate bermuda will not reach 75 even

 

[jattafridi]

latest score?

 

[12thMan]

43-4 after 15.1 overs. rain stoppage

 

[shahidrazzaq]

RAIN! If the rain keeps on going for the whole match, Bangali advance to Super 8's.

 

[Medic]

wont the game resume tomorrow, if they is no play today?

 

[Phuzz]

wont the game resume tomorrow, if they is no play today?

Yes, but if the match has been reduced as a 20 over match, it will continue tomorrow where it has left off.

 

[12thMan]

game about to restart. reduced to 21 overs now

 

[Nauman]

wow a 20/20.

 

[RumiNYC]

looks like icc trying everything to let INDIA to qualify...GREAT...

 

[kablooee87]

47 runs in the last 5 overs for Bermuda. Costly runs?

(Not watching the match so I can't tell what the situation is like)

 

[Windistan]

looks like icc trying everything to let INDIA to qualify...GREAT...

uh really? I dont c that, the stop start thing has been unfortuneate for bermuda. IMO bangla should only get 14-15 overs to hit these runs off.

 

[Straight Bat]

Whats the score at the moment?

 

[kablooee87]

Whats the score at the moment?

94 for 9 at the end of the innings.

Ban require 95 runs from 21 overs.

 

[Shahid A]

Wont The D/L Method Make The Score Higher?

Because Bermuda Didnt No That It Was 21/21?

 

[Windistan]

shouldn't the score be revised higher for bangla? or give them less overs to get it? it really doesnt make sense as bermuda didnt knw they had 21 overs to play with and were blocking for the better part of the 21 overs. the only hit on in last session when they had 6 overs to go.

 

[Straight Bat]

Does anyone watching the match think that 95 runs is gettable then on this surface? How wet is the outfield etc? It should be easy for Bangles shouldn't it?

 

[Windistan]

95 runs is easy target. but the score should be revised to about 110-120 one would think

 

[RumiNYC]

no gonna b easy i'll say...condition is way too bad..slippery outfield.

 

[12thMan]

surprised the score didn't go up. Bang needs to score at 4.5 an over

 

[kashmiri]

india in with a chance then

 

[pakhimmat]

watchinbg it live

its bouncing big for bermudas bowlers

seems a hard target if they make the ball bounce as they are doing right now

 

[RumiNYC]

easy bangla easy...just stop lookin' at leverock..patience

 

[Shahid A]

6/0

 

[siddharth]

Whatever be the scenario ,India should not qualify for super 8's .As simple as that.

 

[kablooee87]

And now a wicket.

well well. This might be interesting

6/1

 

[12thMan]

first man down

 

[RumiNYC]

***..6/1...great way to start..told u guys...it's not gonna be easy for bangla...

 

[Shahid A]

GONE!
Bermuda Strike

6 for 1

 

[Oxy]

And the next 3 balls are virtually unplayable - deserved wkts!

C'mon Deshis - dont lose this!!

 

[kablooee87]

Wow, Bermuda continues to get steep bounce.

 

[Oxy]

Pitch has a bit of 'zip' about it.

 

[the_game]

Come on damn it, I do not want India going through. This little bald trundler from Bermuda is causing problems!

 

[kashmiri]

come on bangladesh, you got to send india back

man, this reduced contest should have taken into account that they would lose all their wickets.

this DL method is crap

 

[kablooee87]

Wides certainly don't hurt

 

[Oxy]

Come on damn it, I do not want India going through. This little bald trundler from Bermuda is causing problems!

Watch it - he gives us 'thin up top' plenty of inspiration!

 

[12thMan]

ball is moving around
Bang 8-1 after 2 overs .... 7 are extras
