They got repaid with interest when Dhoni didn't even celebrate a victory after beating BD because it is no big deal to beat minnows.

Hate is a big word, end of the day we all are cricket fans
When WI lost to AFG, Gayle celebrated with AFG players and took selfies...that is class :19:

That's why most of neutral fans second fav team is WI.

Ind and Pak are not as classy as WI in taking defeat but certainly not as ugly as BD.
 
Did anyone notice that new Bangla Kid trying to provoke Mendis after the game was over? Never seen such a disgraceful behavior on the ground before. Tamim and the other seniors had to intervene to prevent the altercation between the two.
It was like watching aftermath of a local tennis ball league match.

Who told u that photoshoped image of dhoni's savered head was created by a Bangladeshi supporter? There's a strong possibility that it was done by some Indian to make Bangladeshi fans look bad.

Not impossible, right.

It was not one of incidents, whole BD media was propogating it then IIRC.

Also, have good memory of :msd giving shoulder bump to Fizz who was obstructing Ind batters to run #ThugLife

IIRC Photoshoped images were flashed in local news papers, :msd was upset on record about the incident and gave classy response on ground by smashing six to win and tears in BD fans eyes !
 
Baffles me that some are brushing this off as a heat of the moment thing. Seriously! Shakib almost cost his team the victory by asking them to come off the ground, thankfully they continued on regardless and won the match.

One of the two deliveries in question was a close call and could have gone either way. Players can question the umpire but they have no right to become umpires themselves and act in such a shameful fashion especially when the call itself wasn't blatantly wrong. Even the commentators didn't think that they were obvious no-balls. There is no reason to bring Pakistan or India in this discussion as some are doing, but some people just need to feed off of it and seem relevant. This is the low mentality of some of our people.

I am sure shakib, mahmudullah and the rest of the team will learn from this. They are a good team and I am happy they won.

Spot on, was just reading an article citing Faf about the Rabada ban where he talked about how cricket is dying because people aren’t able to express themselves, also because same rules are not applied everywhere. Let people show some passion, we need to stop crying out for every little thing that happens, there was passion, it came out and 2 balls later they all seemed to get along albeit the little scuffle

Look who's saying that! Is in't it your captain who screams and shouts at his own bowlers for every damn silly reason? First fix his psychological issues and fitness issues before pointing fingers at others.

What fitness issues? Did he fail a fitness test for you? And yeah he shouts but I've been critical of him, as have many in Pakistan yet in India, you guys end up turning your players into deities.
 
The only thing wrong was calling off the players by Shakib, the coaching staff and management (assuming they have level heads) should have asked Shakib to calm down and let the match continue.. After the match they could have reported the umpire to match referee and ICC..

If for every bad decision captains start taking their teams off the field we would never see a game of cricket being complete..

Absolutely pathetic from Shakib..

Having said that I hear he’s apologised so that’s fine ICC can fine him as per their policy.. He should be really thankful to Mahmudullag for wanting to continue and then finishing it off in such a good fashion..

Apart from that every other celebration was perfectly fine and was actually good for the game..

Calling the team off and forfeiting the match because a no ball wasn’t giving is pretty pathetic.. It’s nothing to do with Bangladesh if kohli or Dhoni did the same most of us would have reacted the same way.. It’s one thing to vent off your anger by breaking stumps or shouting abuses which imo is alright and adds fun as a spectator but forfeiting the match is a strict no no..

I am surprised adults in coaching staff didn’t get Shakib to calm down and let the match continue.. After the match BD could have asked reported umpiring to ICC/match referee and made sure action was taken against umpiring if it was deemed biased..

Apart from trying to call off the batsmen and forfeiting the match I don’t see anything else wrong in the video, in fact test of it was pretty good from a viewer point of view..
 
I can't believe those dirty Australians ruined another match.
 
What Sakib did was wrong , but its undertandable in the heat of the moment. The way some of the Indian fans are patronizing the BD fans need to know what their great legend Gavaskar did as well . Being great does'nt make it correct for gavaskar and incorrect for sakib. Wrong is wrong no matter who does it!!

Exactly. What Shakib did during that final over wasn't right. However we need to realise that ppl sometimes do stupid things in the heat of the moment.

Sadly ppl r focusing more on Shakib's poor attitude instead of focusing on the real issue which is pathetic and biased umpiring.

No, the biggest looser here is Mahmudullah.

In this GolMal, no one is appreciating what a fantastic innings guy played facing elimination. Also, after 10 minutes harakiri, next 2 shots went for a clear boundary and a SIX to 2nd tier.

Spot on !! Finally someone here is talking sense. We fans don't see the whole picture, we make assumptions and give verdict without knowing what's happening behind the scene !

Apparently, that was 2nd bouncer in that over, and leg umpire called it initially but he cancelled it. Needing 12 runs in 5 balls and then umpire does not give a no ball (missing out 1 extra run and a free hit) would make any players angry. However, it happens in cricket field, Shakib and other players need to learn how to keep calm and win a cliffhanger from Mahmudullah !

But it was upon the umpires' failure to call the second delivery of that over a no-ball for height (it was the second bouncer of the over, the first having been a dot ball to Mustafizur Rahman), that the drama really sparked off. Mahmudullah was in the umpires' faces, imploring them to award a no-ball that would make the requirement 11 off five balls with a free-hit to boot, instead of 12 off 4.
Click to expand...

"I don't want to talk about it, but what happened was that the square-leg umpire called a no-ball and after a discussion they cancelled it," Shakib said. "I didn't think it was the right decision. I don't know what happened after the first ball, which was a bouncer. But after the second ball, the umpire called a no-ball. We are all human, we should take it in the chin and move forward.

Only MMHS amongst the BD fans on here acknowledged unilaterally that Shakib was in the wrong and should be banned (as should the person who trashed the dressing room) which says it all.

A lot of their players and their media is a bad combination of low self-esteem and chip on shoulder which leads to lashing out whenever anything good or bad happens to them. A lot of growing up to do.
 
I blame kholi.

He started this great chaos. Since that Aussie tour of India and dugout drs gate I am noticing increasing poor behaviour by all the teams.

Match was going great and that incident ruined it. Umpire didn't even seem to know the basic rules and Shakib could not even convince his teammates to take a principled stand. All around poor show.

Riyad played a outstanding inning.

Akila displayed some poor Nagin/Cobra technique. :( Hope he improves it before joining Mumbai.
 
LOL at indian posters all over this. Your great gavaskar did the same. Lets face it, indian and BD fans and players are same with same mentality. Both should mature up

Plenty of matches end without celebration in front of a camera. Pretty sure there was nothing to celebrate all those times India's beaten you guys in every since ICC event in history.

Do you think Indian fans take so much effort to make BD fans look bad, try something else ...

Even decades old rivalry with Pak, none of Indian fans did something similar to Pak fans, why will they do for BD fans...No Way.

Winning does not give you the license to act foolishly. However, all teams have skeletons in their closest as far as immature behavior is concerned.

A fare comment .You are right. The problem is Bangladesh is involved here. If that biased decision were against India or Pakistan the thread title would have been " Your thoughts on biased decision of Srilankan umpires (Video of that two deliveries)". Then those posters would have said that Kohli or Sarfraz did the right thing by signalling to players come out of the field. When Kohli does childish angry gestures (as he often does) on and off the field it becomes- oh it's okay, it didn't cross limit and he leads the strongest cricket board so it's not offensive but when a no 1 all rounder shows reaction to a totally unfair and wrong decision which is about to cost his team a final in the tournament it suddenly becomes so much offensive as he is Bangladeshi. Yes one can criticize him for his act but not in this predetermined biased way.

That's the only thing Gavaskar did,BD is getting used to being like this, Mushi dancing with 3 balls to spare was just another instance.
They might win this tournament but genuinely disappointed with their behavior.

BTW Turku amazing place didn't know anyone on PP would be from there.

I bet Kohli or Sarfraz will never ask their team members to walk out even after getting utter biased Umpire decesion on field, BCB should not support such knee-jerk reaction from :shakib :19:

Even if BD wins Final (unlikely), this ugly incident of :shakib will be remembered more than Nidahas trophy Triumph by nuetral fans !

I've seen immature indian and Pak fans too. But yes some mature people as well.

You got to realize that it's the subcontinent we are talking about, going to be a lot of hate being spewed. And unlike other nations bangladesh has a very short cricket history. India and Pakistan has been playing for 60+ years. BD test team for not even 2 decades. Heck we got odi status 20 years back.

There is the ugly reality of social media. It's open to all.

And before I generalize though if an educated country like USA can elect Trump as a president all these are nothing in comparison. There will be delusional people everywhere. Even we all are delusional, you me, other fans but all to some extent.

Key here is to move on. I should not hate on any of my Pakistani Bangladeshi Indian or Lankan friends or acquaintances because of comments on social media made by people who have nothing better to do.

Agree ... Honestly asking you let's just ignore all SC fans (actual crowd in stadium or on social media), don't you think elite proffessional BD cricketers behaving too childishly lately.

Specially, when BD beats/competes well with top ranked team ... For eg Nagin Dance, Shakib threat to forfiet the match, Mushfiqur's statement after WI beat Ind in WT20 SF, Rubel vs Kohli, premature celebration, Rohit noball incident in WC'15 etc.

So how come BCCI isn't stopping BD players from behaving this way more often? Why not ask Anuradh Choudhry or Srinivasan to fine the BD players and fans who behave this way?

Why do you act like you deserve to be paid a tribute just for your existence?

here is my take, Yes professionials are expected to behave better. However, only two of them are pretty ridiculous - Shakib asking to forfeit the match and Mushy's immature post.

But the others were pretty ordinary things IMO and you need to add a little but of spice. Rubel sledged kohli and that made things spicier. Nagin dance- cringy but whats wrong? No ball incident - Did our players protest?

Yes our team will be on the news for all the wrong reasons. However, since Mashrafe and Haturi took over Bangladesh team has stopped looking down on themselves. And eventually you will see us win games from difficult positions and when expected to win we usually win it. In the last 3 years, there are only two matches where we lost from a winning position at the end -
1) Zimbabwe T20 match in late 2015
2) Infamous match against India WT20.
We have closed matches well and we have fought competitively. We even won close test matches! Beat Australia by 20 runs and beat Lanka in lanka in a tricky condition.

The thing is, when you are going to make a positive change in your life, there will be some associated negatives too as you all have seen. All these negatives will die down once we become a world-class side. But personally, I don't mind Bangladesh being in the news for the wrong reasons.I mean just think about it, would you rather be Bangladesh or West Indies, the latter probably not going to play the next world cup. When you make your mark into the cricket world, you will get on people's nerves. Never going to be smooth sailing.

Now once again, I am not defending the players who I feel crossed the line. I think they all should be punished when they do so. But i will add that cricket needs some characters. Be it Kohli, Warner, Shakib, Mushfiq, Afridi, Hasan, Rabada. How boring would cricket world be if it didn't have a character and a player of Shakib's calibre, a truly genuine allrounder able to walk into most sides as a batsman or bowler alone. Yeah cricket is a gentleman's game but these cricketers add spice to contest. Just think about it, a pretty low-profile tournament has all of a sudden got a lot of attention.

The reason why cricket is a dying sport is because all these big cricket boards want to shut off all other teams from the global stage while they plunder all the profit to fill their bellies, and we also have ICC handing demerit points like its not big deal.
 
We are overly cocky...thats just our thing. Its no big deal. Just like the Aussies love a good sledge, the Indians love a good pre-tour sensationalism, and the Pakistanis like a little controversy. Only people who are going to make a huge issue out of this is people who can't stop thinking about Bangladesh in the first place (aren't we lucky?).

Fair enough bro... BD need some mature head as next coach to change perception of cricketing world along with improving overall BD team.

Best Wishes to Bangla Brothers ..Cheers #peace :19:
 
Whatever little that I have watched of this tournament, umpiring looked pretty average (or should i say below average when it came to caling wides). While in no way i condone the actions of some of the BD players, I can understand why they did what they did. Emotions were running high (especially from the BD players perspective) and pathetic on field umpiring only stoked the fire more. Kudos to them that they won the game in the end, though.

Expecting a tight contest between BD and India on Sunday.

May the best team win!

On the other news, after the game, BD supporters on the ground alleges that they were beaten black and blue by SL supporters says this following video (i don't understand Bangla but i guesstimated from the comments for the video)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6Oe3p99Ycs

JFYI If any Indian fans could recall, there were several reports of how Indian fans on the ground (Pallakele, in particular) suffered similar fate at the hands of lankan supporters not just once but on multiple occasions during quite a few one dayers that happened in the last few years at SL (especially during Rajapakse regime).

Shocking, if true. Kind of expected the clashes after looking at shell shocked Sri Lankans. The crowd had been taunting the Bangladeshi players with the snake dance mimicry and was pretty upbeat until the last two balls, after which it became dead. As if an entire country had lost its voice. Not sure from where this folklore of Sri Lanka having the best crowd has originated from.

Cricket is no longer a gentleman's game. However, I would love to see how BD fans would react if tomorrow, any team facing BD decides to walk off the field, when any of the umpire gives a decision which the opposition team deems as wrong.

Altercation with opposition players after winning/losing a game, is not acceptable no matter what. You gotta be humble in victory. As for celebrations nagin or whatever style, I won't mind that as Cricket is more of a circus now, & we expect such gimmick's in a circus by the clowns.
 
There was obvious bias by the main Umpire when he refused a no-ball which had already been signaled by the leg-umpire and from BD's perspective, it was critical.
The BD substitute being pushed by the SL's wasn't in the Spirit of the game either and I strongly believe that Shakib's behavior was the spur of the moment. He being the senior, seasoned and experienced player that he is, he could have and should have behaved better.

Both the teams and the umpires are culpable in exacerbating the situation This could have ended a whole lot worse, thankfully it didn't. I hope ICC comes down on all that were involved including breaking the glass door, post-match.
 
Bangladesh vs Sri Lanka fight: Broken glass panels causes stir, Shakib Al Hasan fined

International Cricket Council (ICC)match referee Chris Broad has asked authorities at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo to study CCTV footage after a glass window of the visitor’s dressing room was found broken following a heated finish to the virtual semifinal of the Nidahas T20 tri-series between Bangladesh and Sri Lanka on Friday. (Sri Lanka vs Bangladesh, Nidahas Trophy, Colombo, Highlights)

Shakib Al Hasan and Nurul Hasan were later fined 25 per cent match fee for argument during the match.

Bangladesh made it to the final of the series following their narrow two-wicket win over the hosts in a series which is being played to mark the completion of 70 years of Sri Lanka’s independence.

Players from both teams, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka were involved in heated discussions and were seen pointing fingers at the field after Bangladesh scored 12 runs needed off the final over to set up the final clash with India.

According to Cricbuzz, Broad was informed about the damage by the ground staff, who then asked them to study CCTV footage to determine who caused the damage.

It is expected that the ICC match referee will come down hard on players following a heated finish to the contest.

The umpires will also study the footage of the final moments of play to see and decide whether they are required to press charges against any player from either side.

Mahmudullah, who scored the winning runs for Bangladesh on the second last ball of the game, was furious earlier in the over when the on-field umpires did not give a no-ball for height with Mustafizur Rahman being the batsman.

Mahmudullah went on to argue with the umpires, and simultaneously, a Bangladeshi substitute who had arrived with drinks got involved in a heated discussion with the Sri Lankan players. One of the Sri Lankan players pushed the substitute, which sent the visiting dressing room in a frenzy.

Sri Lanka’s Kusal Mendis was seen arguing and gesturing at the raucous Bangladeshi players while they were celebrating their victory. Tamim Iqbal put his arm around Mendis’ shoulder to calm him down.

Only 25% fine would be a joke. Shakib should be banned for a few games along with the no-name 12th man. The umpires should be fined. Mahmudulah must be rewarded for playing the umpire's role. Jeez.
 
Sakib has bad temper. Lucky he did not punch the umpire. Immature attitude by players
 
It’s better when Bangladesh lose.

When they win: Thread pe thread on Bangladesh :facepalm:

He was so entertaining in yesterday's match.

Thankfully Perera being the bigger and sensible man didn't thrash him.
 
My thoughts on Bangladeshi players are inappropriate to mention on this forum.

Should be so easy to find this newly improved and competitive underdog side as a likable team, absolutely hats off to the players for making it completely impossible.
 
The hate towards Bangladeshi players and fans is epic. Some Indians are leading the troop with some Pakistanis. Logicless clueless bitter fans.Sympathy for them.

Brother, it is not hate towards Bangladesh. I personally was rooting for Bangladesh to win the game. The sentiments are directed towards the over-the-top behavior of certain Bangladeshi players and the fact that they may have even vandalized the dressing room at Premedassa. That's downright pathetic.
On the other hand, a player like Mahmudullah has shown that he is a class act and can remain calm under pressure and commotion, not only by hitting that six but also by pacifying his young team mates and even getting stern on the hyper water boy. He has gained everyone's respect. Please get rid of the chip on your shoulder.

So how come BCCI isn't stopping BD players from behaving this way more often? Why not ask Anuradh Choudhry or Srinivasan to fine the BD players and fans who behave this way?

Why do you act like you deserve to be paid a tribute just for your existence?

How many times BD have been invited to a full series in India? ZERO.

Do you think Indian fans take so much effort to make BD fans look bad, try something else ...

Even decades old rivalry with Pak, none of Indian fans did something similar to Pak fans, why will they do for BD fans...No Way.

Check the record ....Ind thrashed BD black and blue many times :facepalm:

I do like Indian team. But I have to say that sometimes their fans go overboard to show support towards their team and do all sorts of silly things.


As for the ur second point, well we didn't get to see such fake photoshoped images from Indian fans in the past because Internet/social media wasn't that popular back them.

Just to make it clear to all, I'm not saying that photoshoped image was indeed created by a Indian fans to portray Bangladeshi fans in a bad taste, I'm just saying that's its a possibility :)

India has been playing international cricket for almost hundred years now. So comparing them with Bangladesh who has just started to play this game is pointless. But I have to say that Indian fans still haven't managed to forget the fact that it's Bangladesh that destroyed their 2007 wc dream.
 
So good to see khaled mehmud sujon standing with shakib showing some aggression
When u have such great players as mentor u expect youngsters to play well

He was a fast bowler with some great pace so this aggression is natural
He was a LEGEND . Bangla boys claim inzi was his bunny . He almost won won the Multan test 2003 against Pakistan singlehandedly
An underrated LEGEND
Inspiration for FAST BOWLERS
RESPECT
 
Shakib's behavioue was apalling to say the least. The intense nagin dance brought some humour later on otherwise the whole incident would have been seen with much more seriousness.

Not fans. More like the players cockiness.

Miandad used to be very cocky on the field, it suited him because he was that damn good. If average players start acting like that then its foolishness.

LOL :))

Shakib is easily the best allrounder in the world right now. He has every right to be cocky on the field.

As long as he's performing I don't see any issue with it. If we can tolerate kohli's childish onfield behaviour, I don't think we should face any problem in tolerating Shakib's behaviour.
