India has been disrespecting Bangladesh since the start of CT. Shewag called them grandson and now India is already talking about final so they feel Bangladesh is no match. I think since Bangladesh has come into international cricket arena, nobody has said more disrespectful things to them than India.

Will Bangladesh be able to answer back? Sri Lanka upped their game after they were disrespected by India. Can Bangladesh do the same thing?
 
Let's not all act like saints here. Who wouldn't like to face Bangladesh over England in the semis? Heck we have 10s of threads for the same exact thing.
 
Also did you just see Star? I couldn't believe how India insulted BD.

Ravi Shastri made like a cowboy, tore off Athar Ali's tie to use as a lasso, and walked straddle legged while singing the Bangladeshi national anthem and throwing rosogullas at Tamim Iqbal.

The cheek.
 
When India defeated the west indies team in 1983 nobody thought the Indian team was better than the west indies.Just because srilanka/bangladesh defeat india one day after facing series of defeats it does'nt prove anything except that India had a bad day.

India didn't say anything about Bangladesh, ainvayi ,baate na banao, Kohli clearly said that their focus in on semi final and if they play well they can win the match and in final it's anybody's game,i don't find this statement remotely disrespectful.
 
Even Indian fans are weary of the contest. Personally first time i am taking a BD team seriously in an ICC tournament. They have a nucleus that have been playing together for 10 plus years. Ramim, Tahim, Saqib..

:))) good one.
 
If BD plays well enough, yes they can.

However realistically, it is going to be very difficult, mainly after the mental blockade inspired from the practice match.

Yeah we would like to face them because no one can deny they are an easier opposition than England but do you see us calling them beta or grandson or claiming a victory is guaranteed? Don't try to find false equivalence.

Why would you want to face them unless you felt victory was certainty.

This is a typical reaction here :))

India wins.

Out pop threads about some alleged bad behaviour or insults. Earlier Tendulkar bashing threads would pop up.

Truth is, Pakistani fans are caving in under the pressure of tomorrow's game :))) and are looking to distract and deflect.

I would give the link, Sunil Gavaskar insulted BD even further by stealing the link because he wanted to put it on his head to increase his height.
 
InshAllah. Time will tell. If Allah wills, then BD can knock out the bigger arrogant neighbour's. Month of Ramadan I urge all BD fans to make extra nafl namaz for the semi final win.

I feel pretty good and relaxed tbh. If Bangladesh play their full potential, it will be possible and come on its not like India is some kind of incredibly invincible team which has 7ft monsters!

Read my post again and try to understand it.
 
People who know nothing about cricket are comparing this scenario with Ind-WI in 1983. India, even though it didn't have a good record in ODIs then, was a proper cricket team, not some useless minnow like BD. Just a few weeks before WC 1983, India had beaten WI in WI in an ODI very very convincingly (not some flukey win).

If BD does somehow win this SF, it would be a massive massive upset. There is nothing disrespectful about saying it. BD has already outperformed their expectations.

These are the same people who said SL have no chance of beating India.

Heads highs Bangladeshi's - just don't let the moment get to you.

Bangladesh is neither useless nor minnow. Height of arrogance from India :facepalm:
 
When did minnows start talking back to their masters? Minnows will always remain Minnows at the core

English August might be surpised to know that this useless minnow has the 2nd or 3rd best W/L ratio since 2015 WC with the best being England

Also has to know that Bangladesh have won back to back series against Pakistan, India, and South Africa. England was lucky to scrap away with 2-1 and could have easily lost test series too. Australia avoided for other reasons but I'm sure they were actually in for a shock.
 
Its one thing for a fan to shout his opinions to other people's faces but you expect a professional commie and a presenter on a channel to be more neutral. These gangus and ravis and manjerekars are a disgrace. But then again we can say the same for commies from nations like australia as well.

If you're so thrilled about your performance (conveniently sliced and diced to frame a specific narrative), you shouldn't be feeling bad about whatever Ganguly, Sehwag and others are (allegedly) saying about your team, right?

Just chill and enjoy the game!

yeah, whole India created an ID on PP named English August, and we 1.3 billion people decided to disrespect BD and posted this comment. #SlowClaps

With due respect to your claims, your W/L is 17 wins and 11 losses, those 17 wins include 6 vs Zim, Afghanistan and Ireland! Yes the series wins vs SA, Pak and India were impressive and a dream run you had. Your team has come up very well, but don't read too much into those stats if you really care about your team.

Upto you how you want to view this

Yeah right.Indian one day team was a major team then.Do you know the score of the tests and one days that happened immediately after that on Indian soil.Maybe you are the one who needs to brush up his cricket knowledge.Madan lal, mohinder amarnath were leading the indian pace attack besides Kapil.
 
Oh boy !!

Pakistanis who since time immemorial are used to treating Bangladesh Team as trash on this forum are preaching !!!

C'mon -- not fair to burst his bubble by quoting some real facts! You should have let him dream for a couple more days ...
 
The propaganda is good,execution as well.Think Indian posters shouldn't take the bait and hope for a good match :)

This team of Kapil Dev, Madan Lal and Mohinder Amarnath won 1 WC and 1 champions trophy equivalent full 8 years before you-know-which team full of phaaaast bowlers, and without any help from weather!

I am the last person to even care about what Sehwag or Ganguly. Infact I like it when people troll us. Now do you know how many people are trolling Zimbabwe or West Indies in the CT season? Well almost zero. But people are showing some hate towards us. I would rather see cricket experts poking at us than being a team not even being in the competition.

However, I do give answer to a lot of posters here who claim that we are a minnow like yourself. Atleast Ganguly, Manjrekar agrees we are a quality side.

Also, yes I sliced and diced everything but the reality is that this "Minnow" has qualified for the Champions trophy and is also playing the Semi-finals.


In games played outside the sandpits of Chittagong?

So far hasn't been great, the W/L record is 0.6666 in the same time period but not bad considering that we are labelled as minnows?
 
BTW someone should re-open the thread for BD vs India practice match a few days ago. It had a lot of respect for BD from non-Indians on the forum :)
 
yeah, whole India created an ID on PP named English August, and we 1.3 billion people decided to disrespect BD and posted this comment. #SlowClaps

Super post ...BD fans should take chill pill. How much hate or bad comments Ind team receives as a whole u can't imagine. Just ignore playwell like Ind team does, win or lose our team takes games as games not like some status symbol of the nation. Even Ind fans use to be like this in the past ... Now they are matured, it takes time you guys also will mature to be great cricket fans. Cheers ..let the best team win the Semis.

Ofcourse I care about the team and we have much left to do.

But if someone suggested that we are a minnow surely I can come up with statistics to state otherwise.

So this is the performance of a minnow so far:
Since 2015 WC,
Wins against top 8 teams: 11, Losses against top 8 teams: 11
So we have a W/L ratio of 1 against top 8 teams in the same time period(WI doesn't count btw).

Also this our performance against other minnows in the past 3 years
8-0 against Zim, 3-1 against Afgh, 1-0 against Ireland, 1-0 against Scotland. So this is our performance against "Other" minnows which means its 13-1 which shows a class difference.

I say Bangladesh is doing just fine and have done more than enough to be labelled as a non-minnow

BD has to win WC like SL to get rid of these kind of stereotype labels, untill then need to live with it and keep improving.
 
Well most of the discerning Indian fan are already wary of desh's threat in semi-finals and that is as much respect you can expect from us against any opponent bar facing Australia in knockouts (where we give in to our delirious self). A side which is constantly stacking up the barn and with some gems in bowling department being unearthed to compliment the repolished old guns, ameliorates their ODI outfit. A good side who is given their due respect except for some ultra-nationalist trolls who want rest of the masses to buy their schtick.
 
Mushfiq will post on twitter after England beats India, i don't see Bangladesh beating India, after that T20 world cup, they have a mental block

We've absolutely no chance against India. Actually We r extremely lucky to be in the semifinal. It should've been Australia.

Can't disagree.

Also hope that fans stop living in a cave as it would seem, but doesn't matter does it. All that matters is performance.
 
bangladesh is playing some good crciket these days they are not minnows at all some delusional fans of other countries should accept the reality and i am sure banglaesh will give india tough time ...better than pakistan and south africa if not like srilanka...

This !

Actually except Sehwag (certified nutcase) most Indian commies do acknowledge Bangladesh rise. We were actually more condescending towards SL recently . Everyone knows BAN have the personnel, they usually lose to us at the execution.

Dunno why all these "disrespect" threads are popping up now.

Oh please stop with this inferiority complex (jinx?)
:facepalm:

Bangladesh is a very capable side and have defeated India many times. The fact that desh was on the cusp of knocking out India of the last ICC tournament they faced each other will keep Indian team on it's toes too. It will be excellent match of cricket and it will be about right time for you to fire up and make big claims to fuel up the second best rivalry in world cricket :D instead of being all pessimist.
 
Mushfiq will post on twitter after England beats India, i don't see Bangladesh beating India, after that T20 world cup, they have a mental block

Oh, I fully expect England to beat India in the finals. And yes, Mushfiq will post on Twitter. But so will the entire population of Pakistan. They already did that after Ind lost to SL.

For Pakistani and BD fans, India losing is more important that their own teams winning.

Hence the Pakistani nervousness after the game today. :)
 
Bangladesh should not have been in semis as they would have lost convincingly to Aussies and their NRR would have been very low if not for rain.But then there was a team that won 1992 World cup when rain helped them to move to semis after their match was abandoned against England. So luck seems to favour some team in ICC tournaments via rain
 
The brutal reality is the semi final for India v Bangladesh is nothing more than a practice game for the final.
 
This is the usual riling up done by miscreants !!!! Neither the Indian Cricket Team & surely nor the knowledgeable Indian Cricket Fans think disrespectfully of B'Desh ......Matches are played & won on the field...not on Internet with tonsured head pics or beheaded pics !!!!
 
do you see us calling them beta or grandson or claiming a victory is guaranteed?

In general (not always), Pakistani posters on PP consistently dismiss Bangladesh, while Indian posters either don't offer an opinion or are more neutral.

Personally, I would never take BD lightly. They almost beat us in the recent WT20. They have enough batsmen who can click and if a few of them click on match day, India will be in trouble.

Lets not take Sehwag or any other ex Player as representative of India.
They work for a channel and they say thing on their own account. Same channel had to eat its own words during aane do series.

If i was you then i would take the official words of Captain, current players or BCCI more seriously. Rest is just for ratings, few days ago even sehwag and gangualy had tiff which all looks for ratings.

If you are playing good then you have to be mature too, remember BD ads of shaved heads of indian teams, dhoni severed head drama and the stupid kindergarten dance by BD wk mushfiq during last WC when India lost? I dont see Indians grinding axe for those things.
Lets not try to create an artificial rivalry among two nations, it will never happen no matter how strong BD will get.
You dont need a rivalry to be recognized, just perform in ICC events and see the magic.

To be honest No. They have had their one match glory in the tournament.
Bangladesh is no saint either. They loved that Taskin Dhoni photo
 
Part of the reason BD gets trolled is due to the behavior of their own fans. Remember the chest thumping videos of BD fans, nasty comments of some BD player themselves, nasty memes like decapitated head of Dhoni was bound to invite trolls. If BD fans shows some humility these trolling will reduce greatly.
 
Bangladesh will destroy the Indian bowling line-up. I don't know what happened in that warm-up, but it was only a warm-up. I remember in that ODI series how Bangladesh batsman were toying with the Indian bowlers. Bumrah, Yadav, Kumar are not in a position to even fit the laces of Boult, Southee and Starc. Fizz and Taskin will be enough for Indian batsman. I remember how both bowled together and destroyed the Indian batting line-up. Rohit will lose to Fizz yet again.
 
Everyone is sure of a India Bangladesh semi final but wouldn't it be a Sri Lanka Bangladesh if Sri Lanka wins tomorrow? Correct me if I'm wrong but Sri Lanka and India will both have equal points and the team that won between them will be ranked higher. NRR is only counted for when head to head isn't relevant.

Do you also remember how Stuart Binny bundled them out for 58 runs? or Pandya broke their heart with last over? BD has this mental block against India.

Is this your mind speaking. Or u know some inside dressing room news. Or perhaps it is just pure hatred that is masking ur rationale thinking, and making u type fantasy scenario.

That has to be a gigantic victory. Neither team will risk losing a match in quest of winning it handsomely.

This is how Group Placing is accorded:

In the event of teams finishing on equal points in a Group, the right to play in the semi-finals will be decided in the following order of priority:
# The team with the most wins in the Group matches will be placed in the higher position.

# If there are teams with equal points and equal wins in the Group matches then in such case the team with the higher net run rate in the Group matches will be placed in the higher position.

# If two or more teams are still equal, they will be ordered according to the head to head matches played between them (points then net run rate in those matches).

# In the highly unlikely event that teams cannot be separated by the above, teams will be ordered according to their seeded group position.

# If all matches within a Group are a no result, the top 2 teams from their seeded group positions in each Group will progress to the semi-finals.
 
Well done ICC , just like Ireland in 2007. Kenya in 2003 . Now BD in 2017 CT. U have already ruined the tournament.

So NRR is priority before everything else for this tournament. From what I remember in the past NRR was the lowest priority. Asia cup 2012 for example.

How have they ruined the tournament? Bangladesh are there on merit. They managed to win a game unlike NZ and Australia.

You could have easily checked for yourself on Cricinfo or any other site by the time you finished writing this post. An absolute waste of time for you and the people who are going to reply. See I just did that. I often see these kinds of naive questions. Don't know whether you people intentionally ask these just for the sake of some useless discussion.
 
I turned from being a big supporter of Bangla cricketers to hating them now , thanks to their immature fans and players .

I hope its a another one sided match like the warm ups .

What you have said regarding Asia Cup 2012 rules is true, but that I feel is more of a rare occurrence.

The usual way of higher group placings, as always been by most number of points (wins), followed by NRR. This is the same logic which is being followed now in CT 2017.

No one asked Pakistan to lose to Ireland in 07 or BD this time. BD won a game atleast, neither of NZ and Australia won a single match.

Okay thanks for clearing that up.
 
Ian Chappell was very clear on a TV programme 'Game on Hai' that final will be between England vs India.So does that mean Ian is also disrespectful and partial?
