Pakistan vs Bangladesh | Asia Cup | Dhaka | 11/3/12 | Pakistan Innings

[akamaka]

go for scoop shot

haha, called it , should have put some money on it

 

[Maher96]

Gulaa fr captain.

 

[NeVerMind]

The Whatmore effect! We have the best tail in the world now (the rest of the batting line up is still suspect!).....

 

[shahidafridi123]

Sarfraz can't hit out!

 

[chui_kadoo]

And you are taking Bangla too lightly ..

If Tamim gets going it will be tough..

We took bangla lightly and look what happened to our batting...

Now take them lightly bowling .. and we will suffer again...

Relax. 262 is plenty. More than enough with our bowlers. They cant handle our bowling. I can see us winning by atleast 20-30 runs

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

What is it with our wickwt keepers. None of them can bat

 

[QazzarFan]

no worries 260 odd on this fast outfield wouldn't be so difficult... BD did well to restrict Pak...at one point 300+ looked inevitable

 

[CalculatedRisk]

Sarfraz is not innovative or brave. Such batting will not cement his place as a wicket-keeping batsman.

 

[Faisalabadimunda]

We should have 300 the way we started..

 

[DOOSRA95]

262 for 8 will be hard for Bangladesh to chase

hmmz...

Can we get the bonus point ???

how many runs for us to win to get the bonus point...

Because Sri Lanka and India will be sure to get the bonus point off them...

That's the main issue here.

Lets wait and see

True bro we need the bp.

 

[hhhhdmt]

only 4 guys played well- the openers, Gul and Sarfaraz. Rest are pathetic. Bring Azhar Ali in for YK.

Getting cocky eh.
Bangs wont score more than 200. Easy win for Pak on the cards.

 

[Fawad2010]

Very interesting stat:

On Dec 3rd, 2011, in the 2nd ODI in the tour of Bangladesh, Pakistan scored exactly 262 runs on this ground as they have today. BD made only 186 and we won the match by 76 runs. Here is the scorecard of that match:

are there bonus points in the Asia Cup i dont think so bec there werent in the previous Asia Cup and this has the same format

 

[teesra3]

For bonus point (if there is any), Pak will need to restrict Bangladesh to 210 or less.

 

[MR__KHAN__JI]

Sarfra should be ashamed.

Why?

 

[Dr_Bassim]

For bonus point (if there is any), Pak will need to restrict Bangladesh to 210 or less.

How does the bonus point work.. Can you please explain ?

For both batting and bowling side?

Bonus points? Didnt know there were any bonus points at stake

 

[Monty786]

I hope Dav Whatmore gets Pakistan to change their so called strategy of going slow up-front and leaving the latter overs for the likes of Umar Akmal and Shahid Afridi to get after the bowlers.

Both of these two aren't anymore reliable with the bat than Umar Gul. There isn't anyone who can genuinely take advantage of the power-plays and latter overs, so for me this strategy is flawed.

 

[AdeelSabih]

For bonus point (if there is any), Pak will need to restrict Bangladesh to 210 or less.

Nah, I don't think so that there is any bonus point system here in Asia Cup. Teams should care about their net run-rate.

 

[chui_kadoo]

Folks how does this bonus point work? How do we achieve that

 

[AZulfi]

Sarfraz batted sensibly but he can't play the big shots/hit boundaries!!

 

[A.M.]

there isnt any bonus point i think so

 

[chui_kadoo]

there isnt any bonus point i think so

There are fellow members who are mentioning it and thats why I raised it up

 

[chui_kadoo]

For bonus point (if there is any), Pak will need to restrict Bangladesh to 210 or less.

If thats the case then I can see us doing it. Hopefully restrict them to around 200

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Well if that's the case then good.

I thought bonus points were always there in every tourney...

didn't know it had to be specific to that tourney.

 

[jeetu]

Nazimuddin looks technically as sound as Chris Martin.

 

[JibranAnsari]

BD just needs to play sensibly , there are no demons in the pitch.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Tamim is the key , if he gets going....
