India [314/9] defeat Bangladesh [286] by 28 runs to end Bdesh hopes of qualifying for semi-finals

Soumya Sarkar should be our next captain, he has taken more wickets than Mashrafee :facepalm:
 
The way India were batting at the start it seemed like they will get 350 with ease, Bangladesh have made a comeback by keeping them down to 314 now it will be interesting to see if they can chase it down or not.
 
It was a disappointing end to our inning, but I still expect a strong start from our pacers.
 
Bangla bros plz dont chase it by 43 overs... i have doubts on our NRR
 
20% chance of BD chasing this down.

Need a really top level batting today. Top 4 important. 5,6 and 7 not great.
 
We chased 320+ alright easily but this Indian bowling attack is not one dimensional, it's 3 dimensional.

Well if Bangladesh are going to go down, atleast we better go down with a fight.
 
Never thought I will post something like this but I can trade a loss today for the dead-weed brigades' exit forever. We are not gonna top the table anyway. What a mental torture it was.

Too much to ask for, I know. Go BD go, atleast give us a scare.

But we dont have Shankar how is it 3 dimensional :P
 
i feel BD will be happier of the two sides....and is fav to go al lthe way....i admire their tenacity and calmness....they have perserved when under pressure...and deserve a semis place....
that said....for this match...we gotta get their top order under pressure quickly....go indiaaaaa....:)

They deserve only if they win today,played well but have to play the best from on here to qualify

There are not a lot of pacers raising their hands to take place of Mashrafe and if they are just like Mash (In his twilight) or maybe a bit better, I would still prefer Mashrafe because of his leadership skills.
 
And you are overestimating Hardik and Chahal..

This isnt a road like it was vs eng and bangla dont have batsman like eng to easily clear short boundaries.
Theyll only win if shakib fires..and pandya has picked up wickets when underestimated so hope he gets alteast one today :-)

Cmon man that logic is what keeps guys like Dhoni and Mashrafe stick around forever

Even enthusiastic BD fan won't hope if a win here. I take it as the end of our world cup journey. Tamim has put this match down. He is the culprit. If he can score a big hundred and take us home i shall forgive him
 
BD ain’t chasing this down, at best they’ll score around 250-280 against this strong Indian bowling lineup. Tamim is a hack & a sitting duck against Bumrah, don’t expect him to stick around.
 
I'd be surprised if BD score more than 250 chasing this target. It's difficult to time the ball and Indian bowling is very accurate.

Bumrah and Shami will have to bowl at their best.

Exactly,
India after losing greats like sehwag,sachin,ganguly,dravid someone always stepped up to fill thier shoes,be it rohit,dhawan,kohli,dhoni,pujara...
It is criminal to think good players are irreplaceable and have to stick to them even if they age and decline.almost all of the greats had a early start to thier careers in thier early 20s bar dhoni,but these days talks of preferring experience over youth and not giving chances till yougsters turn to 27-28 is just criminal

World stops for noone,however great likes of tendulkar ,dhoni played they can be replaced considering talent we have in our domestics ,may be they will be not equal to them but not everyone has to
 
Still remember Tamim’s innings against India in 2007 WC, very entertaining!

Quite a classy start for a hack....
 
Hope BD win this and SL also beat India in next game. I just wanna see how Indian fans would react to such a debacle :))
 
Pandya flopped with the bat today. He needs to contribute with the ball. Bangladesh will attack him. We only have 5 bowlers today. :inti

nah...its 50-50...pitch is a absolute road...
 
if they make it to 10 overs without losing a wicket then it is game on.
 
Hopely throwing the last match will come back to bite India HARD.... go Bangladesh, joy Bangla :cobra
 
Not if you lose by heavy margins :smith:

If India lose here and also lose to SL, we should "throw" our match against BD since they already have good NRR they will qualify in India's place

This scenario came to my mind also. Pakistan can definitely take revenge like this. :inti
 
Smart start by BD. See of the dangerous bowlers and attack Pandya and Chahal. Shami bhai can be tricky though.
 
Soumya struggling here. 2 off 18 if you minus the overtheows.

:afridi1 nahh.... we won't go to their level, we got big heart :afridi...
 
Shami is the threat.. if they can disturb his line good else he will run through BD
 
BD out of the world cup, would have been nice if they won today and this would have put pressure on nz.
