India [174/5] beat Bangladesh [144] by 30 runs to win 3rd T20I; clinch series 2-1

[sweep_shot]

India - 174/5 after 20 overs.

Bangladesh need 175 runs in 20 overs to win.

Innings break.

 

[Mainul]

India should win it by 30 runs

 

[TheRock]

Pant would not make it to even the Afghan t20 side.

Wonder when would Samson get into the team.

 

[sweep_shot]

Highly disappointing bowling performance from Bangladesh. Only Shafiul, Al-Amin, and Sarkar were good. Rest were outrageous.

First 9 overs they did alright.

 

[Muhammad Saad]

Here is the summary

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

India just has to kick Dhawan out. After all the boundaries strike rate is still not that good due to dot balls.

Pant should be kicked first. He is a terrible LOI player and his strike rate is not that great either. It's time to give samson some matches.

 

[jnaveen1980]

HE is bowlng at 143 kph. BRainless stuff on this pitch. You have to bowl slow here.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Khaleel is such a trashy bowler with no plan or anything. Every ball over 140k

 

[sweep_shot]

Positive start from BD.

8/0 after 1 over.

 

[sweep_shot]

Bangladesh - 11/0 after 2 overs.

Need 164 more runs from 18 overs.

 

[tyron_woodley]

bowling a slower ball for a pace bowler requires a lot of skill. khaleel lacks that. so yes he isnt smart. saini and Prasad krishna are excellent bowlers who deserve a chance. But khaleel keeps getting in due to the quota system rubbish.

whats the quota system?

 

[jnaveen1980]

This is a huge ground. You can't clear boundaries easily.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Chahar 2 in 2.

 

[tyron_woodley]

whats the quota system?

favouritism quota. virat quota. Punjab region bias.

 

[Shoaib88]

favouritism quota. virat quota.

Oh I thought there might have been quota system regarding regionality or something lol. Nowdays, there seems diverse range of cricketers in Indian team

 

[jnaveen1980]

He is bowling at 145 k. But no real thinking behind his bowling. Just bowling randomly.

 

[Shoaib88]

favouritism quota. virat quota. Punjab region bias.

oh you just added last bit, dont think anyone in playing XI plays for Punjab

 

[TheRock]

Pant should be kicked first. He is a terrible LOI player and his strike rate is not that great either. It's time to give samson some matches.

I think the upcoming Windies T20 series would be the last chance for Pant to redeem himself.

Otherwise, he would be kicked out , for sure.

 

[Shoaib88]

Naim really seems to be putting pressure on the other batsmen...

 

[Mainul]

Naeem hasn't impressed me at all

 

[Shoaib88]

Finally he gets going!

 

[Shoaib88]

much needed boundaries for bangladesh, need to continue!

 

[sweep_shot]

Bangladesh - 30/2 after 5.3 overs.

 

[Shoaib88]

keep it coming

 

[jnaveen1980]

You have to hit sixes. It is always a problem for BD. They can't hit sixes at will.

 

[Shoaib88]

Naim has got the momentum, needs to carry on here. Got mushfiqur and mahmudullah for the finishing job. Naim and Mithun need to carry on till at least 12th over

 

[rollingstoned]

Khaleel bowling has no zip at all. Wasn't this guy supposed to.be promising ?

 

[Shoaib88]

You have to hit sixes. It is always a problem for BD. They can't hit sixes at will.

their coach earlier said that bangladeshis dont have the physique to hit sixes so they have to play 'smartly'

 

[Shoaib88]

Naim on fire

 

[Shoaib88]

last 8 balls 23 runs!

 

[Shoaib88]

if naim stays till 17th over, bangladesh will win the match

 

[sweep_shot]

Bangladesh - 45/2 after 7 overs.

They need 130 runs from 13 overs.

 

[Shoaib88]

Now Mithun has to play smartly here, try to give Naim as much strike as possible until 12th over

 

[Hasan123]

Iyer looks impressive.

 

[sweep_shot]

Bangladesh - 53/2 after 8 overs.

 

[sweep_shot]

Bangladesh - 62/2 after 9 overs.

They need 113 runs from 11 overs.

Naim is the key here.

 

[Shoaib88]

Bangladesh - 62/2 after 9 overs.

They need 113 runs from 11 overs.

Naim is the key here.

Yes, he needs to stay till 16th over to the very least.

 

[Shoaib88]

Need to target chahal and dube!

 

[rollingstoned]

I'm impressed with bang bros this series regardless of the result. I know they get a lot of barbs but they're acquitting themselves quite well and making it interesting even if this is an india b team in t20s. If iyer was caught then who knows what we would have scored?

 

[Shoaib88]

Bangladesh playing smartly here, just need to carry on till 16th over, dube and chahal overs are the key

 

[sweep_shot]

Bangladesh - 74/2 after 10 overs.

Bangladesh need 101 runs from 10 overs.

 

[shah_1]

What a talent Naim is. Clean and beautiful shots.

 

[RainStopsPlay]

Vijay Shankar is 100 times a better player than this overhyped Dubes.

 

[Shoaib88]

I think its also important to keep in mind that this is also bangladesh B team and they are just coming out of a huge crisis which would have affected a lot of the players mentally. All the odds were against bangladesh

 

[Shoaib88]

 

[Muhammad Saad]

IND 174/5 (20.0)
BAN 72/2 (9.4) CRR: 7.45 REQ: 9.97
Bangladesh need 103 runs in 62 balls

 

[Gabbar Singh]

Excellent batting by Bangladesh here, can they keep it up?

 

[sweep_shot]

Bangladesh - 91/2 after 11 overs.

They need 84 runs from 9 overs.

 

[rollingstoned]

That is fair but shakib getting banned isn't India's fault. So is mustafizur matching khaleel and pant. In general regardless of match situation they seem composed. It's a trait of an accomplished team.

 

[Shoaib88]

17 off the over!

 

[Shoaib88]

thats just like saying India playing B team isn't Bangladesh's fault

 

[Shoaib88]

thats just like saying India playing B team isn't Bangladesh's fault

and therefore shouldn't be used as an excuse

 

[rollingstoned]

thats just like saying India playing B team isn't Bangladesh's fault

Err no it isn't ?

 

[Boi]

Would be yet another bottlejob if Bangladesh don’t win this from here.

 

[sweep_shot]

Bangladesh - 106/2 after 12 overs.

They need 69 runs from 8 overs.

 

[jnaveen1980]

India is losing it for sure. Nobody can grip the ball. Dubey is possibly one of the worst seamer in the world.

 

[Boi]

Chahal getting taken apart.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Respect for this batsman. Showing no nerves. All clean connection. India pays the price for using dubey as a 5th bowler. Bright future. Found a replacement for Tamim. But have to see how he plays bouncers.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

The shorter the format - the worse we are.

 

[sweep_shot]

Bangladesh should bat calmly. No need to panic.

They need 66 runs from 45 balls.

 

[MenInG]

BAN 109/2 (12.3) CRR: 8.72 REQ: 8.8
Bangladesh need 66 runs in 45 balls

Good contest

 

[saeed5646]

Still think india will win this .

 

[sweep_shot]

Mithun departs.

Bangladesh - 110/3 after 13 overs.

Bangladesh need 65 runs from 7 overs.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Chahar 3 for 3. rest are all crap.

 

[ZaudStorm]

Thank god for that

 

[jnaveen1980]

Still think india will win this .

They can score 30 runs from Dubey easily lol BD will regret if they don't win against this bowling under dew.

 

[Boi]

Mithun stunk out that innings. Why was he batting above Mushfiq and Mahmudullah?

 

[jeeteshssaxena]

What great team selection by greatest loi captain rohit.
Even shivam dubey needs to bowl full quota of 4 overs.
Really bad captaincy.

 

[Shoaib88]

If Bangladesh is sensible, just need to give Naim as much strike as possible till 17th over!

 

[saeed5646]

Don't like rohit persisting with khaleel .Today in the end he might cost india t20 series

 

[jnaveen1980]

Rohit is ****** off at the players. Missed 2 run outs and lethargic.

 

[sweep_shot]

Mithun stunk out that innings. Why was he batting above Mushfiq and Mahmudullah?

He is not a big hitter normally. He plays in the top order. Sending him early was better.

 

[saeed5646]

Told you guys 4 down already.collapse is on

 

[Boi]

Bunch of bottlers man.

 

[sweep_shot]

Mushfiq is gone first ball. Wow!

Bangladesh - 110/4.

 

[Rana]

Bangladesh choking here.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Rahim must be furiated for getting bowled by Dubey lol

 

[Shoaib88]

Seriously man!! Just give Naim the strike, how hard is that to do!!!!
