Up for the upset! )

 

[imteaz]

lets go tigers

 

[OZGOD]

Bit of rain around the MCG for this match

 

[battler]

Hope the rain stays away!

 

[battler]

[MENTION=190]OZGOD[/MENTION] today's not the 16th mate

 

[Iffitheking]

16th March??? what's with the dates and Pak passion admins...

 

[imteaz]

LOL saw on tv, Indian fan praying to GOD that India don't lose to BD, indian r so scared

 

[battler]

Around 30,000 bangladeshi supporters have gathered together for this game at the G according to cricinfo.
That's huge!

 

[Suleiman]

Nothing about rain from cricinfo so far, so hopefully it remains a non-issue.

Similar forecast before SA v PAK iirc, and it turned out pretty good still.

Simple for Bangla Broskis, bat first bat big.

 

[xSAADx]

Kohli will walk with a duck back to pavillion

 

[Iffitheking]

Rain is predicted late in the evening but only 30% chance and less than 1mm... so I guess we will have full game until and unless Bangladesh bowled out for 100 runs...

 

[battler]

let's go India!

 

[BlackThunder]

Hearts will be broken, tears will roll, silence will rule Bangladesh for days after we are done with them tonight #BleedBlue

 

[BlackThunder]

Bangladesh fans will think twice before hacking our websites after this game #BleedBlue

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Bismillah, hope we score more than 133 and pick 2 wickets, moral victory.

 

[BlackThunder]

Bismillah, hope we score more than 133 and pick 2 wickets, moral victory.

The only moral victory you will get is a first class tickets back to Bangladesh for your players on Emirates.

 

[BillyM]

Lol... Bangladesh fans are nervous. Understandable since they have reached so far. Few in my work are so nervous

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

The only moral victory you will get is a first class tickets back to Bangladesh for your players on Emirates.

It's a cricket game, relax.

 

[prakash]

Our guys are relaxed.

Virat Kohli and MS Dhoni share a lighter moment during a training session, World Cup 2015, Melbourne, March 18, 2015

Bangladesh supporters after the match...

Link of that piece please

 

[BlackThunder]

One Bangla fan who works in a convenience store close to where I live was so nervous he was literary shaking just talking about the game. I told him straight up to take the day off tomorrow, he will need the time off to mourn and hopefully get over the pain.

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

My tamim radar is telling me he will score another duck

 

[cricket.mad]

The only moral victory you will get is a first class tickets back to Bangladesh for your players on Emirates.

Pls dont troll the match thread with your hate and utter disdain for opposition

1.05 pm: Sharda Ugra has chimed in from the G: "On the MCG concourse a large number of Bangladeshi fans are gathered. Cars driving into the parking lot have Bangladeshi flags being waved - either from windows or taped onto the roof. A group we met have driven down from Sydney, in one of those mini vans, say that they are expecting 30,000 fans. He mentions how they have all asked for leave, and gave the final ultimatum that if they weren't granted their wishes, they would quit anyways.The number of Indians gathering are smaller and, er, quieter."

[xSAADx]

I hope Indian players have boarded their luggage already on the plane back to India. Should have said farewell hotel staff as well. would save time and effort.

Only bangladesh can closely match Indian crowd at neutral venues....Hope our 30,000 will be able to out shout their 50,000

 

[anuk]

india needs to prove their superiority. every one in six ppl live in india, surely they should be able to cobble together 11 cricketers that are good enough?

[Ashraful_Rox]

As I have said before we have nothing to lose and we will lose in style.

I would even enjoy a collapse by us.

Things wont work in that way dude..

How's the vibe in Bangladesh? They said they have nothing to lose and there is no pressure. Are the fans relaxed too?

 

[rhony]

They make up for that in Computer Engineers

haha KP

My response would be that you score at whatever SR you need to win.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Bangladesh have nothing to lose . This could be their greatest moment ever .

Claim to be tigers , if they can actually become them with no fear they have a chance , it's sport.

 

[Strike Rate]

Dhoni win the toss and bat first!

 

[Strike Rate]

Nasser Hussain as commentator in India match now it's going to be fund

 

[KingKhanWC]

It's impossible to know that batting first so you score at what will be tough to chase . A sr of less than a hundred is usually not enough . Kp is right , times have changed

 

[Strike Rate]

Mortaza already looking under pressure after losing the toss

 

[Scorpion]

India batting first. Dhoni won toss again.

 

[BlackThunder]

Nasser Hussain as commentator in India match now it's going to be fund

He will be on his best behavior with Srini mama watching from up top.

 

[cricket.mad]

Gud toss to win and bat first but what about rain prediction?

 

[KingKhanWC]

Bangladesh chased & won in 07

 

[Strike Rate]

dont worry there is a reserve day

 

[Strike Rate]

Srini mama is long gone now it's Daalmyaa in office

 

[BlackThunder]

Srini mama is long gone now it's Daalmyaa in office

Srini mama runs the ICC and is Dallmyaa's boss.

 

[cricket.mad]

dont worry there is a reserve day

Oops...completely forgot about it buddy..

 

[Enforcer]

Srini mama is long gone now it's Daalmyaa in office

Now-a-days Daalmiya is like Srini's proxy. is still calling the shots!

 

[OZGOD]

India have won the toss and will bat first, meaning BD will be chasing 400 probably.

Bangladesh Team
Tamim Iqbal, Imrul Kayes, Soumya Sarkar, Mahmudullah, Shakib Al Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim†, Sabbir Rahman, Nasir Hossain, Mashrafe Mortaza*, Rubel Hossain, Taskin Ahmed

India Team
S Dhawan, RG Sharma, V Kohli, AM Rahane, SK Raina, MS Dhoni*†, RA Jadeja, R Ashwin, Mohammed Shami, MM Sharma, UT Yadav

 

[cricket.mad]

Srini mama runs the ICC and is Dallmyaa's boss.

Nope..its other way around..if dalmiya wants to remove mama,he can bcz to continue as icc chairman,it requires home boards concurrence

 

[Random Aussie]

From where I sit, there is some cloud coming but doesn't look too fierce. Hard to tell here though, the weather changes very quickly.

Today my friends, we are all Bangladeshis. Go Tigers!

That's true. I was talking more about chasing a target. Depends on the wicket too though.

 

[Enforcer]

When SL batted first yesterday first, it was a sluggish and two-paced pitch, which settled down later. Hope this is not case in MCG.

nah that's wrong Daalmyaa can kick Srini mama any time out of ICC because he have the power of BCCI which is bigger than ICC and if i am not wrong Srini term is going to end as ICC president soon next president is Najam Sethi another clown lol
