Sri Lanka (140/4) defeat Bangladesh (139/5) comfortably by 6 wickets in Match 05 of Asia Cup 2025

[YousafTheBeast]

He is.

Oh yeah

 

[Hellion]

Athar on commentary now. Hasn't started crying yet. Good signs

 

[YousafTheBeast]

DROPPED

 

[PAKFAN12]

Dropped

 

[sweep_shot]

Athar Ali Khan is the commentary box. LOL.

He seems agitated.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Feel sorry for fans who watch this from stadium. A run rate of 2 in power play.

 

[YousafTheBeast]

Athar comes on and SL start to drop catches.

 

[sweep_shot]

Asalanka drops a sitter. That should be taken at this level.

BD - 9/2 (4.2 overs).

 

[YousafTheBeast]

RUN OUT

 

[jnaveen1980]

WHole Asia cup is such a poor advt for T20 cricket.

 

[PAKFAN12]

Run out

 

[YousafTheBeast]

What are they doing

 

[sweep_shot]

RUN OUT

Looks like my stream is 1 ball behind.

That's absurd because I am paying for this. I am watching on Willow TV.

If they are behind, why should I pay?

 

[Vikram1989]

Hridoy gifted the wicket as sri lanka dropped him. Extremely generous

 

[sweep_shot]

Out.

Run-out.

BD - 11/3.

 

[Asif321]

Bangladesh in shock haha

 

[Hellion]

Towhid gets dropped but then gets run out anyway next ball.

Along with lack of talent, no brains as well for these BD players.

But according to their fans , they are better at U-19 level so it's all good.

Time to get a firestick

 

[Vikram1989]

Will this be the lowest pp for test teams?

 

[nish_mate]

WWF should really sue BD for defaming tigers....

 

[AZulfi]

Bangladesh imploding here

If someone has poor record against them they are no good like they are gold standard lol

All their age fudgers will get roasted.
once out of that level.

 

[mominsaigol]

Indians ruin every thread. Even non indian and non Pakistani ones I swear. What a rubbish lot. They should all go off themsleves tbh.

 

[sweep_shot]

Four.

First boundary for BD.

 

[sweep_shot]

Yes.

It is why I had to put 105+ Indians on ignore. The list keeps on getting bigger.

 

[nish_mate]

Miss the good old days of no BD team.... life used to be better without their toxic jammati fans

 

[sweep_shot]

BD - 16/3 (5 overs).

Almost another wicket. LOL.

 

[Hellion]

Tanzid , Emon, Shamim and Hridoy were not hyped as much as Jaiswal despite being from the same batch of U-19's.

BDfanforever used to complain non stop about that.

 

[mominsaigol]

Irony died a 1000 deaths. Go trample your own aka RCB tramp tramp tramp

Bro you’re 5 balls behind

 

[jnaveen1980]

But their fans are arrogant. That is the problem. There are a lot of minnow teams who we have no problems against.

 

[Mesozoic]

Liton is the only excitable batter to come out of Bangladesh in their 3 decades of top tier cricketing journey.

Rest all are either boring, weak , meek or painfully mediocre.

 

[sweep_shot]

Nish_fish_mate is allegedly a guy in his 40's. He behaves like a 5-year old.

Quite creepy.

 

[Vikram1989]

After practising range and power hitting, its ironic that bng produced one of the worst pps.

 

[sweep_shot]

Bro you’re 5 balls behind

Outrageous.

Willow TV sucks.

It is an Indian platform. So, not surprised at the low quality. India is all about quanity over quality.

 

[YousafTheBeast]

Litton has woken up

 

[Mesozoic]

But their fans are arrogant. That is the problem. There are a lot of minnow teams who we have no problems against.

It's not arrogance. It's the small dog syndrome which has now spread to our neighbours on the other side as well

 

[YousafTheBeast]

Hopefully Bangladesh can get around 160, need a good game today.

 

[sweep_shot]

3 boundaries in the over. 14 from the over.

BD need a few big overs like this.

30/3 (6 overs).

 

[amvbfm]

Weird captaincy. Why would you give the ball to a part timer when you are all over the opposition and two of your main bowlers haven’t bowled at all.

 

[PAKFAN12]

Bangladesh need to score 140

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Just hope brother Litton performs but SL win

 

[mominsaigol]

Nish_fish_mate is allegedly a guy in his 40's. He behaves like a 5-year old.

Quite creepy.

Ik who @nish_mate is. I remember clowning on him with other guys .

 

[Wasim Ghulam]

But their fans are arrogant. That is the problem. There are a lot of minnow teams who we have no problems against.

Afg Fans think they are the second best in Asia with no evidence to support that. Thats not arrogance for you?

 

[Justcrazy]

Bangladesh struggling here .

 

[jnaveen1980]

Afg Fans think they are the second best in Asia with no evidence to support that. Thats not arrogance for you?

I am yet to see an Afghan fan here lol I don't pay attention to Social media

 

[CricVet]

I wish BD make 140. It will be an awesome game then. Daas need to play till the end to max the score

 

[Wasim Ghulam]

I am yet to see an Afghan fan here lol I don't pay attention to Social media

Neither Many BD Fans on PP

i have never seen arrogant posts from @sweep_shot regarding BD team

 

[sweep_shot]

BD - 36/3 (7 overs).

 

[sweep_shot]

I am not a secular nationalist. I don't jump around like a monkey if someone criticizes my country. That's the Indian speciality.

I myself used to play league cricket here in Canada. So, I am not just an armchair critic. I support many different teams in cricket. I care about cricket as a whole (not just BD team).

 

[YousafTheBeast]

Out

You should check closely then. A reason why i blocked that guy.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Hasaranga will be a handful on these pitches. Hope SL win the asia cup. Only SL and Inida have dominated Asia cup anyway.

 

[nish_mate]

No I just squeal like the proverbial animal every time India wins and your jammats called out, that your speciality sweepy

 

[sweep_shot]

Mahedi is out.

38/4.

 

[Wasim Ghulam]

why cant Athar Ali dial down his excitement? jeez

 

[YousafTheBeast]

Another wicket

 

[sweep_shot]

why cant Athar Ali dial down his excitement? jeez

LMAO. True.

BTW, Athar is actually of north-Indian origin. He is a muhajir. His ancestors settled in Bangladesh from Uttar Pradesh.

Athar is not an ethnic Bengali. He is a muhajir.

 

[PAKFAN12]

Das gone.

 

[CricVet]

5th

 

[YousafTheBeast]

Wow edged??

 

[CricVet]

Plumb

 

[Wasim Ghulam]

Das gone.

Gotta have something to be arrgant about in the first place. Been here long enough to see his venom and filth and then acting like an angel.

 

[CricVet]

Edged

 

[sweep_shot]

Litton survives.

There is a clear edge.

 

[Justcrazy]

Four down , BD need to try and bat through here.

 

[Hellion]

Credit to BD fans. They are so patriotic. 24 years of Test status, still playing like associates and their fanbase stays true. Impressive.

 

[YousafTheBeast]

Shot, get the sweep out

 

[sweep_shot]

Four. BD need more.

BD - 43/4 (8 overs).

 

[Ahmed216]

I think 'celebrappeals' should be banned.

It can certainly influence umpires's decision making and marginal decisions can go bowlers way in reviews.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Test cricket is played faster than this, these days.

 

[YousafTheBeast]

SL fans doing the infamous dance…some fatty as well

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Problem for BD is they didn't punish full and short balls in the PP.

PP by length

Full - 0/11 off 10 balls
Good - 2/7 off 15 balls
Short - 0/12 off 11 balls

 

[sweep_shot]

SL fans doing the infamous dance…some fatty as well

Not as fat as Herath.

 

[sweep_shot]

50 is up.

BD - 50/4 (9 overs).

Need some big overs.

 

[RidiculousMan]

@sweep_shot any talented opener in the circuit that can actually replace Tamim?

 

[YousafTheBeast]

.

 

[sweep_shot]

@sweep_shot any talented opener in the circuit that can actually replace Tamim?

Tanzid and Emon. They are the best ones to replace Tamim currently. But, they haven't been very consistent.
