Nadim · #**1303** March 31, 2013, 11:57 AM

DAT was widee wtf

shuziburo · #**1304** March 31, 2013, 11:57 AM

Shahadat's last over is the difference. Take a bow, Mushfiqur.

Shartaz · #**1305** March 31, 2013, 11:57 AM

But still IMHO Ashraful's wicket was the turning point for me. I say Umpire for MOM!

WarWolf · #**1306** March 31, 2013, 11:57 AM

Wide not given!!!!! Very poor umpiring.Extremely poor umpiring.

BD_TigerZ · #**1307** March 31, 2013, 11:57 AM

Vince Lombardi may have been overstating things a bit when he said "winning isn't everything, it's the only thing." After all, not everyone wins, but life inevitably goes on. "Close, but no cigar" is a cliche, but it helps comfort those of us who don't always emerge victorious.

bujhee kom · #**1310** March 31, 2013, 11:58 AM

Also screw this umpiring....I hope to those in this forum, the message reaches you.

shuziburo · #**1311** March 31, 2013, 11:59 AM

Two persons made a difference, Mushfiqur and Shahadat.

WarWolf · #**1312** March 31, 2013, 11:59 AM

Well batting considering PLAYING AGAINST A 13 MEN TEAM!

ononto · #**1313** March 31, 2013, 11:59 AM

Presentation Ceremony:

Presenter: 198 .. a bit too much to chase
Mushfiq: DEFINITELY, but no shame, me and the selectors will keep continue doing what we have done so far, someday we will win someday we will not.
Presenter:Do you thing the bowling change was right at the death over?
Mushfiq: DEFINITELY, I was a moron, selectors kept faith on Shahrukh, and I too had bipolar disorder and brain fart to keep faith on him.
Presenter: What you would take from the series?
Mushfiq: DEFINITELY, we will keep trying Shahdat better next time, he has to improve, we have faith on him. Although we will discuss how to overcome bad umpiring turned to our favor

BANFAN · #**1314** March 31, 2013, 11:59 AM

It was a wicket to bat....if Ash would have survived the umpires Churi.... We could have won it today... 200 was chase able..

Shehwar · #**1315** March 31, 2013, 12:00 PM

It was 10 men against 14! 2 Umpires & Shahadat were on their side!

Rabz · #**1319** March 31, 2013, 12:01 PM

Only goes to show how we lost the game we could have won.
Mushy's decision to bowl Rubel+Shahadat in the last 3 overs, Umpires decisions specially that of Ash made all the difference.
Oh, the few thousand wides too.

So close yet so far away, yet once again.

BANFAN · #**1320** March 31, 2013, 12:02 PM

Umpire, Some Bad bowling, Poor Fielding etc takes a confirm win away from us.

Shartaz · #**1321** March 31, 2013, 12:03 PM

I hope Mushfiqur mentions something about the Umpires at the presentation.

BD_TigerZ · #**1322** March 31, 2013, 12:03 PM

We have ability to get 185 in t20s..but its our bowling..Pace and raz's momentum killing wides..extras..sloppy fielding. Mushy as well..when will he start using his brain? This game was our for the taking until mushy gave the ball to srk..millions knew what was gonna happen..but not the XI bolods on the field. Thats the bangladesh cricket team for you.

It was also possible to restrict SL around 180 or less had we bowled smarter and Mushy used his brain.

Dilscoop · #**1324** March 31, 2013, 12:03 PM

If Riyad didn't get run out by Marlon Islam we probably would've gotten a lot closer.

Cric_2 · #**1325** March 31, 2013, 12:04 PM

From Cricinfo... Summarize the result very nicely
Bangladesh falling short by 17 runs. They conceded 19 wides to Sri Lanka's five, leaked 56 runs from overs 17 to 19 in Sri Lanka's innings, and Ashraful got a poor decision.
