ICC World Cup 2023: India (261/3) remain unbeaten as they defeat Bangladesh (256/8) by 7 wickets

[nish_mate]

it’s not depending on others, I’m just asking if one would be better than the other.

Logically India winning, as it wouldnt crowd the lower half of the table

 

[Blackbradman]

Last 15 overs 50-4

 

[Mas-LFC]

3,4,5 experienced at big events, Miraz had played last cwc but batted low down. Just doesn’t look right, so much weakness there. Need to get mushfiq back number 4, who can play spin well, keep it ticking, slow down wicket fall.

 

[Devadwal]

Lol now thakur bowling economy rate is less than 6.

 

[kron]

When siraj has his tail up he is deadly. But he is quite expensive. Mixed baggage. Quality pacer but poor so far in this tournament. 50 average.

 

[kron]

Lol now thakur bowling economy rate is less than 6.

Which means he will continue to play for india lol.

 

[Devadwal]

When siraj has his tail up he is deadly. But he is quite expensive. Mixed baggage. Quality pacer but poor so far in this tournament. 50 average.

Siraj has better impact than any Pakistani bowler in this world cup .

 

[gazza619]

India’s biggest strength is their bowling in the middle overs.

I can’t see how they will not win the WC this year.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Rahim is a touch player. Not a power hitter. That is his only downside.

 

[Aseem_Khan]

In Pakistan , Bangladesh and Afghanistan best batsman with stroke making abilities I rate
1. Gurbaz
2.Litton Das
3.Fakhar (Recent form dipped else he could be at first place)

 

[Mas-LFC]

I think They are using Rahim as an insurance in the back end just in case there is a collapse up the order.

What’s the point of that when you will be 4-5 down before 150runs inside 30 every match. Mushy won’t be able to bail them out all the time. Instead Mushfiq at 4 stops collapse, batting looks more solidified.

 

[TheSultan]

Bangla middle order without shakib is really bare bone

 

[Mas-LFC]

RR gone below 5 now. Shanto and Miraz to waste of time batsmen at the top one is a minnow basher mental midget and one is a low order batsmen who is being forced to bat high up in different positions.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

India’s biggest strength is their bowling in the middle overs.

I can’t see how they will not win the WC this year.

If they don't win this time it will be a huge surprise. They are far ahead of the competition. Almost Australia in 2003/07 vibes.

 

[Devadwal]

Rohit is not going for wicket but using thakur against new batsman show that he is just want to complete thakur over.

 

[Mas-LFC]

Rahim is a touch player. Not a power hitter. That is his only downside.

Touch player should be batting top4. Period. It’s mind boggling how this haturu changed bd batting order. Under domingo mushy was at 4.

 

[jnaveen1980]

2 needless dierct hits

 

[Mas-LFC]

Two direct hits two extra runs lol

 

[Blackbradman]

SIX..

 

[Devadwal]

2 needless dierct hits

Fielder is helping that somehow thakur go for over 6 because Bangladesh batsman giving him respect which he is not deserve .joking
If pandya not Play next few match then what will be India combination? Now thakur will surely play

 

[Mas-LFC]

India got out of jail if you ask me. Das got frustrated hit out for no reason but no.3 and 4 haven’t helped the cause wasted balls and got out softly!

BD looked good for 310+. Now looks like might not even get 270!

 

[nish_mate]

Need to snare Mushfiq

 

[Devadwal]

After being hit for six ,only seven run score in Jadeja over.

 

[Devadwal]

Kuldeep back and next over bring back bumrah

 

[adzzy786]

After being hit for six ,only seven run score in Jadeja over.

Towhid Is looking nervous. He looks like he can barely hold a bat at the moment

 

[kron]

Siraj has better impact than any Pakistani bowler in this world cup .

He has but he averages 50. He is a much better player than what he is showing. A quality player like him shouldn't be averaging high.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Fielder is helping that somehow thakur go for over 6 because Bangladesh batsman giving him respect which he is not deserve .joking
If pandya not Play next few match then what will be India combination? Now thakur will surely play

Depending on opposition and pitch. Shami will come in or Ashwin will come in.

 

[Smbhayi]

That's what I meant. Hindu. Interesting. Rest are Muslim I believe.

He us a phenomenal player.

Soumya Sarkar. He's not in the squad btw..

 

[Devadwal]

BAN - 161/4 (33)
Next 7 over is best time for attack .

 

[jnaveen1980]

I don't think anyone is picking Kuldeep. Everyone tries to play him off the pitch.

 

[Devadwal]

Great fielding by Kuldeep to save two runs

 

[kron]

If india had pant axar they would be even stronger. Could even say prasidh given how much lift he gets with his bowling.

That little kid jaiswal looked phenomenal. Could have even played him. Wonder what happened to sundar.

 

[kron]

Kuldeepthough a tad chubby is looking fit and is a very good fielder

 

[Devadwal]

When direct hit was needed then he missed lol

 

[Mas-LFC]

Looking at Shanto wicket. He has major technically flaw. On the backfoot to that fullish ball, bat lifted into the moon and came down late to a simple ball really! If you’re playing On the back foot have lower lift.

 

[Devadwal]

Good testing over by bumrah

 

[MP2011]

Another fantastic over from Bumrah

 

[globetrotter]

Bangladesh not going above 240

 

[jnaveen1980]

Bangladesh last 24 overs 101 for 4

 

[kron]

Mushfiqur
Liton das
Sarkar

Would take all 3 for Pakistan.

 

[kron]

Mushy is a tough cricketer. Gritty player.

 

[Smbhayi]

Rahim seems like can get run out anytime..

 

[Devadwal]

Bangladesh last 24 overs 101 for 4

Or last 20 over 74 for 4 .they were 90/0 in 14 over.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Rahim is the most experienced world cup campaigner alongwith Shakib and Mahmudulla.

 

[Devadwal]

Good over again by Kuldeep. Just one run

 

[jnaveen1980]

Good over again by Kuldeep. Just one run

They are not picking him. Try to camp on the backfoot and read him off the pitch.

 

[Mas-LFC]

Really disappointed the way Das got out. Well set needed to make a big one. Ignore whatever happened around you, just bat deeper, take calculative risk, take more singles rotate the strike, bad balls will come. After lose of few cheap wickets Das needed to anchor the innings even if it means 100 coming off 130balls! Let others make up the fast scoring.

 

[Mas-LFC]

Tawhid Hridoy low of confidence playing test cricket on a batting wicket. Omds just freaking rotate the strike you khet!

 

[Mas-LFC]

5 overs of Bumrah to come how they gonna score runs now. It’s gone all gloomy now thanks to pathetic players like Shanto and Miraz

 

[Mas-LFC]

The dj playing Char Chokka Hoi Hoi 2014 T20 World Cup Song in CWC world cup when they have their own anthem song. lol

 

[jnaveen1980]

I think Bangladesh is wroried about collapses like Afghanistan, Paksitan hence they play this period ultra catuiously.

 

[MP2011]

Cheap overs are all fine but these 2 need to take wickets

 

[Mas-LFC]

This what happens when you throw inexperienced players under the bus at the top end. Tawhid looks at sea, just like Miraz and Shanto. Unless it’s Afg or associate team.

 

[Mas-LFC]

Last 15 overs 50-4

Ultra bad season destruction 3 cheap wickets no3 and 4 wasted balls too.

 

[MP2011]

Mushfiq's strike rate against us is lowly 74!

 

[nish_mate]

Come on lads need to hunt another one down

 

[jnaveen1980]

All these subcontinent players are fan of Kohli. If they want to learn something from him, strike rotation is one thing.

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

This what happens when you throw inexperienced players under the bus at the top end. Tawhid looks at sea, just like Miraz and Shanto. Unless it’s Afg or associate team.

Mahmudullah at 3
Mushi at 4
Don't understand why mahumullah coming so down in order

 

[Devadwal]

Good batting by Mushfiqur .now platform is set for great finish

 

[Mas-LFC]

No 3,4,5 all wasted so much balls.

 

[Smbhayi]

Mushi till 2015 wc avg around 28.. But after that (2015-2023) he avg 47.. What an improvement..

 

[jnaveen1980]

Mahmudullah at 3
Mushi at 4
Don't understand why mahumullah coming so down in order

He is their finisher given the raw nature of Shanto and co in the back end. They can get all out for 30 runs in the last 10 overs.

 

[Srinath_cricket]

That's what I meant. Hindu. Interesting. Rest are Muslim I believe.

He us a phenomenal player.

Towhid hridoy too, is a hindu I guess.

 

[Devadwal]

Gone and useless thakur get the wicket

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

He is their finisher given the raw nature of Shanto and co in the back end. They can get all out for 30 runs in the last 10 overs.

Wasting him in down order, he can do wonders at no. 3

 

[nish_mate]

Kuldeep highlighting again how to stop a boundary, neighbours please take note of these free lessons

As I type, another Tiger skinned

 

[Mas-LFC]

Outfield is pathetic sluggish ball aint reaching boundaries it looks damp in most parts

 

[Smbhayi]

Hridoy's test innings ended by Lord Thakur..

 

[jnaveen1980]

Bangladesh is never known for big hitting. Since Ashraful days. They do it methodically. Closest big hitter is Shakib who also has to innings building role. Litton Das is another guy who can hit big. But he is an opener. Doesn't last long enough.

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Awful knock

 

[jnaveen1980]

5 world cups - Rahim
4 world cups - Mahmudullah

Taht is some record.

 

[Mas-LFC]

Oh God!

This useless guy Hridoy not only got out softly but wasted 35 balls.

Khet the lot of them!! Lets call them by number. Todays BD no 3,4,5. All Khet batsmen

 

[nish_mate]

Bangalore chokers on the pitch

Can they redeem themselves??

 

[jnaveen1980]

If you combine Bangladesh and Afghanistan you can build a good unit. Afghan guys are violent hitters when in touch.

 

[Mas-LFC]

Haturu must be sacked. Useless coach. BD were much better under Domingo. Haturu unsettled BD batting order!

 

[Mas-LFC]

Two the most experienced batsmen at 5 and 6. Can they make a decent total to defend. Last two batsmen left and there’s more than 10 overs left.

 

[jnaveen1980]

4 overs of Bumrah left.

 

[Mas-LFC]

Mashrafe was right. Tawhid Hridoy got brought into the ODI team too early.

 

[Visaal-E-Yaar]

Beautiful shot for 4

 

[RamLakhan]

Fielder is helping that somehow thakur go for over 6 because Bangladesh batsman giving him respect which he is not deserve .joking
If pandya not Play next few match then what will be India combination? Now thakur will surely play

If Pandya doesn't play surely Thakur also will not play! He will no way be our 3rd seamer! Pandya is our 3rd seamer (in fact at times he is more reliable than 2nd seamer!) It is only due to injury/fitness issues that Pandya is cushioned by Thakur/Ashwin (a 6th bowler be it 4th pacer or 3rd spinner). Thakur plays because to give cushion to Pandya more than cushion to India bating lineup as most people think! So Pandya in a ways is both a blessing and curse to this Indian team (ODI team). Now we will see a proper batsman & bowler replacing Pandya & Thakur...
