A one sided affair awaits... just dont know which side though. If the bowlers perform similarly then expect 200+ score again. Anyways, my fav squad would be,
Tamim
Liton (wk)
Soumya
Mushy
Riyad (c)
Ariful
Miraz
Nazmul
Abu Jayed
Abu Hider
Fizz
If we want to stand any chance of competing, we need to walk in with 5 full time bowlers. From the current squad, Fizz-Hider-Jayed is the best possible T20 combo. Kinda didnt want to pick Miraz but in Shakib's absence, we need someone who can bowl. Hate seeing Mushy in the T20 side but he did perform recently against Sri Lanka and in the practice too. Really hope Tamim and Ariful gets going. Tamims innings is long overdue....

Won’t be able to watch. But good luck BD.
Hope, Liton plays instead of Kaedge and opens. Want left and right combination. Sarkar at 3.

The biggest threat is Rohit - almost always play well against BD
Next threats are Dhawan and Raina.

Quite scary Ariful at 6, Miraz at 7. Thats the downside of playing without Shakib, by having to play extra bowler you sacrifice your batting.
For some reason, i think our mgt might select the following players. From Bashar's interview seems like Sabbir will somehow find his way into the team, although he only scored 1 of 10 in the practice game.
Tamim
Soumya
Liton
Mushfiq
Riyad
Sabbir
Ariful
Apu
Fizz
Taskin
Rubel

I am a shucking idiot. I don't know why.
I always say that I won't watch this sorry excuse for a team. But one way or another I end up waking up at midnight to follow this idiotic team day in day out, sacraficing time, effort and sleep to watch hopefully, a few wins here and there.
Hopefully tomorrow at 1am Midnight they don't disappoint.
Is this phenomena a only special to me or do many BD fans reciprocate the same action.

Also, should bat first if toss is won.
Too many times we chase, and Mahmadullah is happy crossing 160, not realizing that you don't get credit in t20s for close matches. It's either win or lose.

pacha lathi time. For us. India's B team took their lumps again Hathuri's boys. Now we will feel the pain. I'm not going to bother to stay up and watch. It will be an embarrassing loss for us no doubt.

I get the feeling. Bangladesh will be getting a heavy defeat. Especially if they bat 2nd. As there’s no Kohli, batting first and set them a target to chase. Bowling first, Sharma will turn a beast batting first, with no scoreboard pressure they’ll play freely and get big total. And we know how well BD chase big totals.

Every one in bc looks like already lost their hope for the tigers ...
But I think and believe, Bd will win this match .... and might be a champion...
Bd always play good when they count as a underdog or nothing to lose ...
Especially no kholi or dhoni on batting side ... it will be a huge gain...
just take Dhowan, match ours. Too many players is on fire to get their readom back ...
Bangladesh going to win this one , if they do .... they will play final ... mark my word

I love this BD India rivalry, one of the bests in fact, after Pak V Ind and Aus V England.

^ True. But in light of what has been happening ever since the South Africa series, it's more of a David vs Goliath rivalry. Us being David ofcourse.

Thats why I like it. It's more sweeter if David manages to bludgeon Goliath to death.
