Also, the average score on that ground was 231. What's the average on this ground? Like 280 at least.

Opener will rest injured achilles

Hayden withdraws from Bangladesh series

Matthew Hayden has been ruled out of the one-day series against Bangladesh due to a long-standing Achilles problem, but he remains on track for the Test series against India in October. Hayden was originally due to travel with the squad to Darwin - the first match is on Saturday - in an attempt to be fit for the Champions Trophy.

However, the team's medical staff decided Hayden should take advantage of the postponement of the tournament and use the break to ensure he is fully fit for the four-Test series against India. He has spent time at the squad camp in Brisbane over the past two days and will continue his rehabilitation at home.

No replacement will be named for Hayden and the 13-man squad will head to Darwin on Tuesday to prepare for the three matches against the ninth-ranked Bangladesh. Hayden suffered the injury while training in the Indian Premier League and left the tour of the West Indies without playing a Test. His withdrawal is another setback for Australia, who will also be without Ricky Ponting (wrist injury) and Brett Lee (family reasons).

229/9 is a very low score, I am sure opener Junaid disappointed again. AIS easily jite jabe ei match ta. They will probably win by 5-6 wickets

al Furqaan · #65 August 25, 2008, 12:33 AM

229, we lost, at least we won a single game...

AIS will win by 7 or 8 wickets judging from prior batting.

AsharGolpo · #66 August 25, 2008, 12:42 AM

At least we have the runs on board and AIS will have to score that. If we can get 10 wickets then we will definitely not loose!

To be honest this is the best opportunity for us to raise the confidence of the bowlers. If we can beat them defending 229 or even put up a good fight and make a very close match, that will be better than scoring 300 and losing easily. Only those teams can improve who consider every score to be a defendable one!

Welcome to BC AsharGolpo! Hope you have a long and wonderful stay with us!
Yes I totally agree with you that this is a good opportunity for us to get our bowling confidence back, even though we will probably loose the match!
And yes... we should always go for the win!

MaxCricket · #68 August 25, 2008, 12:57 AM

229 is actually decent score. If we can bowl more than average, at least we can give a good fight.

Thanks for the score.

AsharGolpo · #69 August 25, 2008, 12:59 AM

Thanks. I'll be happy to participate.

Thanks for the score.

Those days are over. Those are days of past. There were time when if our batters somehow could score 240, we could snore and dream win.

Antora · #72 August 25, 2008, 01:20 AM

Woah 229/9! I guess it's not bad considering we were 120/5!! hmmmmmm
