3rd Match Thread: Bangladesh Vs Zimbabwe at Dhaka,Dec 6, 2010

[Naimul_Hd]

this type of little innings can bring the real mash !! go mash !

[cricadda]

after shuvo came in the team....everything is changing...why? maybe becaues of his pani pora..lol.

[bangalee20]

Overall, very well played by BD. It was a good thing that Tamim was gone in 1st over. Rest of the team had the chance to prove. I am more than happy that Mash got the chance to Bat and what a show he had! No one should doubt Mash's ability to Bat.

[Duck]

good night (or morning!) and good luck, keep it up ....

[Rinathq]

Good batting by Sakib , mushy, mash.... If mash was sent ahead of shuvo, we couldn't had 20 more runs.....
This should be easy to beat.......
Go mash, Sakib, razzaq

His little cameo prolly giving some of his team mates heart burn.

Exactly Mashrafe can hit a a long long Ball.....

nd if they rate shuvo above him....thats just unprofesionalism.....its not about who you want its about the best guy for the situation

[cricadda]

i think mash will come back today with his old rythm....good luck bd.

highlight of 1st ins. http://onlinewatchsport.com/watch-live-cricket1-online/

Naeem proved as well that he is in better form (both Bat and Bowl) than Riyad.

[Rinathq]

Yea just imagine mash playing all 5 over pp!!!
We couldn't had 20- 25 more runs which wouldve taken our total to high 260s.
Mash is one fearless player.... Hope he does well with bowl

I disagree. His looked to struggle in his batting.

[Shartaz]

absolutely...nd yeah...with overcast conditions...moisture in the pitch...I really think Mashrafe will make a BOLD statement today...

why? dont u think those 23 runs out of 24 is not important, I would rather play him in one down instead of junaed or shuvo and mash should have come before shuvuo. Nayeem and shuvo are the top or middle order batsmen, we r not using them in the right way. that is not their fault to have steady runs for us.

I don't think so. He made some superb shots.

even if that is true... its still no where good enough to what we need to win against the big teams... we need someone to get runs at over 100% strike rate when other batters have laid the platform, in the powerplay... he struggles to even hit full tosses... 24 ball 23 inside the power play simply isn't good enough...

[taklima_naj]

of course nayeem is better than riyad at least in fielding

[Tehsin]

Shakib and Co should get PLENTY of turn from this wicket. Utilize it well and the match could be a 100+ run win for BD. It produced some fabulous turns. On that note, BD score could have been higher if te batsmen were able to read some of the softballs that spun past the leg side. The batsmen managed to put bat or pad to it to either give away a dot ball or score a single off of those.

[ahnaf]

75 run came from Last 10 over.. Good work by mash..

[Shartaz]

Guys don't worry there is plenty of spin in the track...having said that I should prolly go nd study for my exams now....

Exactly... We also wanted Shuvo to bat and get his confidence. Coming to bat in dead overs is not an easy job.

shuvo middle order batsman?? R u serious?? He is nothing more than a slogger though can hit a lolypop ball properly..

[ahnaf]

Riyad is better than nayem... U cant bring a player only for good fielding nd riayd also a better fielder..

[bangalee20]

Shuvo can score big if he gets the opportunity to bat earlier, IMHO.

[godzilla]

Big thnx to Shakib and Mushy for those good innings. Even Naeem and Mash did good at the end. If Shak continues like this, his avg will start to go near 50
