Do you feel like switching your TV off when BD bowls?

sakib12 · #1 March 28, 2014, 05:13 AM

This is what I feel every time BD bowls. Its so boring like watching paint dry. Our pacers got no bite look military medium.....no swing outside.....our spinners are orthodox spinners relying on defensive tactics....the less said about the medium pacers the better.....we have no game changers like pakistan, sri lanka etc....who have bowlers who come and you can smell a wicket...

cricman · #10 March 28, 2014, 09:03 AM

I do the same when they bat as well.

I can't take my eyes off even they are playing so bad and rubbish.. Too much emotions may be... Just wasting my time and life watching them till the match was over...

It's true the points you make about the bowling/bowlers. But, cant blame the bowlers in this match (v Ind) 138 is never going to be enough against such a fine batting side. Needed least 160 for the bowlers to have some confidence to defend it (against such fine batting side). As the pitch, looked very good to bat on. Infact it was flat to me!

I feel rather, nervious watching BD bat every time especially Tamim(we should give him a bc nickname: Banglar B&H) and Bangladesher Jaan. I feel every ball they face they will do something suicidal and get out tbh I just dont think they practice hard enough in the nets or analyse their mistakes and learn from it.

Well I usually don’t feel like breaking my tv when bd bowls, perhaps because i become too emotional by seeing those glorious shots from opposition batters. But i do feel like breaking my tv with my very own head whenever I see bd batting. For example the wicket of kopa yesterday. I was literally saying hey gadha do u have human head or cow head on ur shoulder. But so far my television has survived. Though not so sure about the future.

Time to switch it off...we are bowling

**Zunaid** · #20 March 30, 2014, 06:05 AM

I have switched it off umpteen times today (#BANvPAK). But being the sado-masochist I am, I keep going back to the match.

simon · #21 March 30, 2014, 06:33 AM

watching a BD match on TV? what da ... is that?

ReZ_1 · #22 March 30, 2014, 07:08 AM

I listen to this when things get disappointed. Their commentary is much better and goes with the mood.

Watching and supporting the Bangladesh team in cricket is the correct psychological preparation for anyone waiting to do a PhD in science, wouldn't you agree Zunaid? It gets you inured to the disappointment of having myriad experiments fail, but still having the tenacity and misplaced optimism to come back and suffer again the next day

At least, for the former, we have a diploma to hang on the wall and a title that is used on occasions, Dr. Ahmad. Not sure what the end takeaway is for our cricket support.
