To wake you guys up with a bite of reality, this is not a strong batting lineup at all. Our top order is non-existant, middle order is supported by bowlers & part timers. Nobody has a fixed place. Everything is in continuous flux.

I would have been comfortable if they had put in some of the no name hitters from the 20-20 corporate league. Any local cricketer with national credential can do at least as good as these idiots.

There should be punishment for being out irresponsibly. Enough is enough.


You cannot be more right.

[brikonwall]

The thing that is most dissapointing is, we cannot put up any sort of fight. Specially the batsmen. Whenever these batsmen are coming in the middle they for some reason are forgetting how to bat if not how to hold the bat.

[Navarene]

Aftab strikes twice when all our regular bowlers failed. Well done.

[brikonwall]

Nafis Iqbal c Styris b Mills 0 2 0 0
Javed Omar b Franklin 12 18 2 0
Aftab Ahmed c McCullum b Mills 4 3 1 0
*Habibul Bashar b Franklin 0 12 0 0
Mohammad Ashraful c Franklin b Styris 17 15 3 0

First five bastmen combined scored 33 runs. I see Ashraful scored a fast 17, did he again get out playing a sutpid shot when he didn't need to? Can someone answer my this question.

[ferdous]

Sinclair gone, Rafique got the wicket

Who is this sucker that dropped the catch? This fielder should be dropped from the team.

[ferdous]

Styris is bowled by Aftab. NZ 114-4. Thats 3 wickets for Aftab.

I would suggest, put an avatar where Ashraful tries to hit a very good ball for six but eventually gets bowled.

great performance by the bowlers if only our batting didnt suck this much.

This is call "batting by a first class batsman". Batting with knowing your teams situation. Unlike Ashraful.

when BD put runs on board they are competitive, bowlers always bowl their hearts out, where as batsmen try to show off trying to hit every ball to the fence, but instead they hole out and BD left reeling on 51/5.

bowlers made a game off it at least, batsmen gonna get more stick for sure and they deserve it apart from aftab!!!!

Only Aftab and Masud who made the match looks a close one.
Well done both of them.:up:

Aftab Ahmed 10 0 31 5

I am very happy about this. THANKS A LOT AFTAB...

[rafiq]

At least they made a game of it. I was disinterested after seeing the score this morning and I don't know if Aftab's bolwing is a fluke but he should get MOM award for bringing the game back to life. You can't expect to win with 14-whatever we scored, but at least the bowlers are putting up a fight in this series.

[akabir77]

obviously man of the match should go to Aftab who has made the game interesting.

Don't forget rafiq.

[songsoptok]

you may also give some points to Rajin Saleh -- at least he can spend some time in the middle.

[fy288]

Aftab smashed it!!!

hopefully the ICC dont see something wrong with his action,thats the last thing we need. i didnt see match so cant comment on it, so if some one could, would be great? because its too good to be true!!!!

[200SX]

tht was close........n we could hav won..still:up:

[rafiq]

Come on guys, we could not have won the game no matter how close it was. That's the difference between an experienced professional side like NZ and excitable deshis like us. No matter if they had to score 0.5 runs an over, they always had enough wickets to stay at the creas and win. No one will remember how close this match was in 2 weeks, they will just remember the series win by NZ. Having said that, Bangladesh's bowling continues to hold it's own, and new options in Aftab and Nazmul can only mean we can get rid of horrible allrounders such as Sujon. I think that is the only takeaway from this series, everything else is forgettable. The Bangladeshi wickets showed more bounce and swing this time around as well, maybe that is a change for the better and gives our bowlers a chance.

[songsoptok]

aftab is man of the match.


:great::great::great: :bravo::bravo::bravo:

[fy288]

close matches are now not good enough for BD we want results. its true nobody will remember this in a few months.

[mahbubH]

BD usually do well if I do not follow the game. Wel done BD ... good comeback. Hope our batters learned something from the bowlers heroic. They got to learn fast ...

[BD Tigers]

Great Going BD. My last post was at 5 am when BD finished their innings. The only thought from then was only if BD takes 5/6 wks I will be happy. Man, they outclassed my expectation. And Aftab is MoM...GREAT JOB AFTAB :clap:

Sorry to miss all the action but will read the posts and will get some idea about his bowling. I hope he becomes a good allrounder instead of mutli skill player.

Man shomman kichuta bacche..Allah tumi rahman.:flag:

[bourny3]

Well done Aftab first BD 5 for. Nice work. Amazing that a part timer gets the first 5 for. Amazing day really as Aftab got 5 in this match and Michael Clarke got 6/9 versus India. Two part timers doing the damage.

[N1Z786]

this is my team for the 3 odi what u lot think of it :


01. Javed Omar
02. Nafis Iqbal
03. Aftab Ahmed
04. Alok Kapali
05. Mohammad Ashraful
06. Khaled Masud
07. Khaled Mahmud
08. Manjurul Rana
09. Mohammad Rafique
10. Taposh Baiysa
11. Nazmul Hossain

[N1Z786]

we sholud make round about 210 if theyplay gd
i what to see allround playin in this next macth

[bourny3]

I agree with your team N1Z786 but i would have Mahmud out and Rajin in. I would like to see that 210 happen also.

[N1Z786]

hmjfh

[N1Z786]

sorry bout that
i think that Rajin need a break he is not in good form we need somone who can score more them Mahmud is a good played and he can play fast and rajin is 2 slow

[Rubu]

even with bad form, rajin managed to stay on the crease for over 70 balls and scored the 2nd height 28 runs to accompany pilot to a good partnership. i think rajin, at the current moment one of the key player of the team.

[obernell]

rajin is doing more than enough, i highly admire that guy, he isn't getting all that runs, but we definitely need a cool headed batsman like him
