shak is no way near our top most t20 player. what he achieved in KKR, is not even near what he did for our national team. razzak is much better performer in t20 for BD compared to shak.

What do you mean by Shakib did not do much in the T20 team? How much T20 do we really play? The sample size is too less to make a comparison. Shakib also did not play in the last 2 T20 matches BD played.

If you actually watched the series with your own eyes, you would notice that our spinners were doing well to keep the RR down. On the other hand, zia,robiul and shafi were dishing out horrible deliveries to take the pressure off from the batsman. Play to your strength, if necessary, play 4 spinners. We dont have a malinga or morkel sitting in the dugout

I hope our players remember that you can score 8 runs an over in a number of ways. Some don't even require a boundary!

Zim batting..get ready for 190 chase..

sorry bro, i actually watch the game using your eyes lets see what happens to this game. whether our team selection saves us or doom us in the game

[MHRAM]

zimbos batting first.

I dont think its a bad result for us. We are better of chasing and hopefully the pitch will flatten out slightly more in the latter half of the match

[MohammedShamim]

Mushy never wins's toss change of captaincy might bring us luck!

[Tiger Manc]

Toss: Zimbabwe have won the toss and they are batting first.

[MHRAM]

No excuse if we lose this match. Its a must win match because we would want to end the series with some respect.

Like I said, we are without our lungi, we cannot let go of our shorts/boxers/jainga now

[Tiger Manc]

I'm glad we're batting 2nd

[wktkeeper]

Toss: Zimbabwe have won the toss and they are batting first.
Manik: "Mushi's bad luck continues. He lost the TOSS again!"

ami jantam eei tai hoibo. mushy toss e harbo.

According to Crapinfo Shafiul is playing twice.

Sajidul and Shafiul..

[BD_TigerZ]

As always BC slow as hell..

[M.H.Rubel]

I like the playing 11 in this batting condition.

How idiot the selectors are, picking Ash in ODIs for his Test success & dropping him in T20s for his ODI failure.
Ash is our most successful T20 batsman.

[zunaid_bd]

Thats out

[Tiger Manc]

Yes! Zim 1 down!

[simon]

bhushiMushi Gaibanda gone.
good start

[ahnaf]

I'm not happy we are batting second. I wanted us to win this comprehensively. And we could have done that by putting up a huge score and then bowling them out cheaply. Now I will only be satisfied if Tamim and Shamsu chase down whatever they score they put up.

[BD_TigerZ]

Haire..Shafi in and starts bowling half vollies..

[Tiger Manc]

Shafiul expensive again

[ahnaf]

All the series our batsman struggled and now we are playing with one batsman short in a batting pitch.. Seriously?? Ratre kichu khaisilo naki egula?
