look at my previous post 'bangladesh playing revolutionary cricket !'

i wonder why the coach dint realy guide the mental stress n lack of experience of the youngstars in proper track..

Carte Blanche · #**178** February 20, 2004, 02:17 AM

Bangladesh begin the chase. 3 dot balls to start with.

sadhat · #**179** February 20, 2004, 02:22 AM

SIX - 1.2 Gaurav Dhiman to Nazimuddin, SIX, full length, lofted it over long off

Rubu · #**180** February 20, 2004, 02:25 AM

nice first over by nazim uddin. looks like he actually playing considering the marit of the ball. 5 dots 1 six

Carte Blanche · #**181** February 20, 2004, 02:26 AM

Yep. 5 dot balls and a six in that over. I really hope this kid isn't a "boundary or nothing" player. Hope he'll milk the bowler around after a big hit and give Nafis some strike too. 9/0 (2)

sadhat · #**182** February 20, 2004, 02:30 AM

I need couple of overs like this ----

2.6 VR Singh to Nazimuddin, no run
2.5 VR Singh to Nazimuddin, no run
2.5 VR Singh to Nazimuddin, wide: FOUR
2.4 VR Singh to Nazimuddin, no run
2.3 VR Singh to Nazimuddin, no run
2.2 VR Singh to Nafis Iqbal, one run
2.1 VR Singh to Nafis Iqbal, FOUR

Carte Blanche · #**183** February 20, 2004, 02:31 AM

Wide 4 in 3rd over. BAN 19/0 (3).

sadhat · #**184** February 20, 2004, 02:35 AM

Damn! Only 1 run from 4th over. But if they keep wkts alive, nothing can happen. 309 is not impossible score to chase.

Carte Blanche · #**185** February 20, 2004, 02:38 AM

Nafis gone, caught at 2nd slip. 20/1

rafiq · #**186** February 20, 2004, 02:42 AM

i've been trying to do some work late but with 2 BD matches on at the same time (must be a first!), that's hard to do.

with nafis gone, chances are really slim. was hoping for a run rate of 5 until the mid point. let's see how deep our batting is. nafis choked when we needed him most, as he is prone to do. can't handle the pressure??

Carte Blanche · #**187** February 20, 2004, 02:43 AM

Nazim gone, LBW. Fall of 2nd wicket. 24/2 (5.1). That's it. Our hopes are dashed.

rafiq · #**188** February 20, 2004, 02:46 AM

and they don't look too comfortable, do they? that we even think we could have chased 309 against india shows something has changed - i hope these guys still plug away and get 250+ as that will be good momentum to take into the plate round where we will surprisingly meet at least 2 other test nations?

Carte Blanche · #**189** February 20, 2004, 02:51 AM

Nazim scored 6 runs from 16 balls, which came from the solitary sixer of the innings. He basically wasted 15 balls, apart from the six. Didn't they teach him just to nudge the ball around and take a single? I wonder if Nafis was getting frustrated due to lack of strike and flurry of dot balls. Just what i was fearing "boundary of nothing" habbit is running amock.

rafiq · #**190** February 20, 2004, 02:53 AM

until bd batsmen learn to take singles and rotate the strike, they will never master the one day game

this is how SA is chasing a NZ one day ask rate of over 6:

Recent Overs: . 1 1 . . . | 1 1 1 1 N1 . . | 1 1 1 . 1 2 |

billah · #**191** February 20, 2004, 03:01 AM

A perfect example, Rafiq bhai. Nafis, however, is a genuine flop under pressure.

Carte Blanche · #**192** February 20, 2004, 03:01 AM

Things changed a bit after Aftab arrived. Kid's on fire. 55/2 (8.4) RR = 6.35
Aftab 27(19). Seems like Aftaab is getting his runs from cultured shots. Just hope he keeps his cool and continues to keep his wicket intact. Also important that his partner compliments him and rotates the strike. As rafiq pointed out, they ought to be on their toes on running between the wickets.

billah · #**193** February 20, 2004, 03:03 AM

Look at Aftab go at it. Suicidal?

Carte Blanche · #**194** February 20, 2004, 03:03 AM

63/1 (9). Aftaab is tearing it apart, 35 from 21.

Sakin · #**195** February 20, 2004, 03:04 AM

8.6 VR Singh to Naeem Islam, FOUR, drifting down the legside,played
fine
8.6 VR Singh to Aftab Ahmed, (noball) one run, short, mistimed cut to
covers
8.5 VR Singh to Aftab Ahmed, FOUR, short and wide, cut away over point
8.4 VR Singh to Aftab Ahmed, no run, short, pulled straight to square
leg
8.3 VR Singh to Aftab Ahmed, FOUR, delicately cut to the thirdman,
misfielded by dhawan
8.2 VR Singh to Aftab Ahmed, FOUR, pitched up, drive to long off
8.1 VR Singh to Aftab Ahmed, two runs, short, pulled to long leg

How is this for an over?

sadhat · #**196** February 20, 2004, 03:04 AM

| 2 4 4 . 4 N1 4 |

Good over [9th]

billah · #**197** February 20, 2004, 03:04 AM

We are way above the RRR at the moment.

rafiq · #**198** February 20, 2004, 03:04 AM

suicidal only if he refuses to take some singles in between his shots

Carte Blanche · #**199** February 20, 2004, 03:05 AM

True billah. But things will calm down soon. Specially if we lose a wicket now. Fingers crossed.

billah · #**200** February 20, 2004, 03:05 AM

40! 40 runs from 3 overs. Put the chuckers to the sword!
