Confident To Make The Semifinals

BANFAN · #1 March 18, 2015, 09:48 AM

I don't kjow, but I feel confident that we are beating India pretty dominantly and Making our way to Semifinals....

Well it's not merely an empty expectation, I believe we have the strength to beat inda. India has pretty successfully masked it's weaknesses in the group stage, where they werea lmost losing with Zim, if Djoni and Raina their last hope didn't make it. Dhoni is someone, who can fall pretty unpredictably. I guess they didn't face any good batting side or bowling side to put pressure on them in group stage.

Bangladesh will expose their weakness in both batting and bowling tomorrow. The factors that will work against India and will make them lose the match:

1. The Indians will be completely surprised facing us, since they won't expect our batting and bowling to be what it is, since they will expect us to be what bunny and company saw us not so long ago.
2. They will be over confident, they are charged to do more than finishing a game professionally due to all the hype created to prove a point against BD which will create unforced errors from them,
3. Their bowling will be negotiated and ultimately blown by our batting, after what we faced against Newzealand in a much more hostile conditions.
4. Their batsmen will try to power our bowlers out and Faulter (No 1 Cause)
5. If we can take just 2/3 top order wickets, They can't hide their weakness in such high pressure game, so they will be exposed today.
6: With their bowling, if their opening pair is smacked hard, they will not know what to do...irrespective of the por bowlers, they are relatively inexperienced and bowling in unfavorable conditions...than what NZ did...so I see a huge possibility of destroying their bowling ..

When they will realize, I'm sure they won't be able to rescue the game anymore...

We have a team now and the team talks with media has been extremely balanced so far. Their approach to a big match has been pretty normal in their attitude, they behaving consistently like another game, unlike the past.. so im sure, they will play pretty cool cricket without any pressure, with both bat and ball. They will finish the game pretty surgically to win it....

So Having thought over the entire situation pretty peacefully, I feel we have a bigger chance of winning against India tomorrow...guys we will Inshalah make it to SF tomorrow.

I can see all the signs of having a fantastic match from BD perspective....I'm not over hyping, if the signs are not artificially presented, the team will play just normal cricket and the proven performers we have in the team with bat and ball, is clearly enough to beat a Inda under pressure.

poor thread at the eve of match

MHRAM · #3 March 18, 2015, 10:18 AM

I think you are being a bit too optimistic. The game is 30-70 in favour of us so we can't really be that confident.

But yes, we got to hope.

So for you, "we are going to be defeated" was a better thread on the eve of the match ?? I get it, you are already defeated at heart...so well...keep it there please...

If anyone feels that we have the ability to win tomorrow, can definitely give his reasons here...I'm not hoping a win by chance....that the match will decide..how the win will come...will see.

India play the same type of game as us, and they do it better. They are heavy favourites no doubt. We have to hope that some of their players have an off-day and all of ours have a good one. Whenever we've beaten India it's because everyone (especially the batsmen) played well.

Even before the Enland Match, odds were against us. But we could see why we had a better chance to win....depending on our strengths and opponents weaknesses.

So yes, if we can exploit our strength and imdia's weaknesses, I don't see any reason for us, not to win....

Do you remember, how Zimbabwe bowlers cornered their heavy batting line up on paper? It's their last recognized pair that rescued them...our bowling attack isn't poorer than Zim, why cant the same or even better be achieved by our bowlers ?

we even don't need to expect their off days...

We took off Top two of NZ, not because of their off day, the team declared it that they have a definite plan for them and they did it...so I'm sure they will have plans for indian team too...and I hope they can execute it too.

bodrul · #8 March 18, 2015, 10:31 AM

If our players can remain relaxed and focused on this big occasion, and execute their plan, we have a chance. Also, BD should not give up too early if one or two small things go wrong. We have to keep the intensity up throughout.

That's the prematch spirit we need...

Bhutan has beaten Srilanka yesterday in pre WorldCup qualifier

betaar · #14 March 18, 2015, 11:21 AM

Can we win against India? Sure. Will we win? That's anybody's guess. But India is definitely favorite to win at 70-30 ratio. But that 30% chance can be transformed into something bigger for us and this match can be won. However, for that to happen, Bangladesh needs to do well in all 3 departments.....not just 2 out of 3.
What does do well mean in each of these departments?
In bowling: consistently put the ball at the right place.
In batting: play each ball according to the merit when things are not going well. When in charge, take the aggression to them.
In fielding: catch all that come our way and stay focused.
These are all basic stuff. But doing the basic consistently is the toughest thing to do in a game that's 7-8 hour long. Whoever can do it well, will win this match.

Difficult to say when SA couldn't do it. They are much better and balanced side in Batting, Bowling, and FIELDING.

The way we keep it close is hold our catches. 100%. Then we have a game. They have to drop few as well.

It is not that can not happen. It has happened before. But the percentage is low.

Plus ICC has taylor-made pitches for them. Batting paradises.

Lets win the toss first.

Rubu · #16 March 18, 2015, 12:16 PM

BANFAN, I can't feel too confident (actually at all confident) that we'll win tomorrow (today), but I can tell you this, if we do, no one's gonna stop us for the next two matches either.

Dilscoop · #17 March 18, 2015, 12:18 PM

Nope. No hope I tell you. Not gonna happen. We should keep our bags packed.

Right absolutely

If we play fearlessly, with freedom and do the basics right, we will surprise India. You know, big teams just need a little uncertainty be created in such a knock out matches by the unseeded teams, that can make unthinkable results...bcoz losing to BD is always a matter of additional pressure. Let's see, how it goes. I'm hopeful bcoz Bangladesh is a completely different team than it was even 6 months back...mental/attitude change is so much vissible now....can hope for the best

SA had a couple of bad matches actually. Yes I agree, pitch is an advantage for india if that remains a pata. But with overcast conditions and chances of rain, these pitches can change its nature. Let's see.

Bhai this stat is useless for developing teams verses established team.

Now Atleast it's 24 vs 3 ... But in 2007 this was X vs 0 but we won na?

More over, this is a completely different team than we ever had...and this is the first outing of this team, where the score is 3-2 on our side in this tournament...so we are definitely one of the favorites...

People are trashing Eng for our victory over them...that makes some of us believe that We aren't good enough...but Eng has given this match every thing..because this was a do or die match...but they failed and their team wasn't bad....

We lost to NZ because we did a few serious mistakes....I don't want to repeat...even if we did one mistake less, NZ could have been down in their home condition and crowd.

Our game is supposed to be lifted as the tournament progresses....so we have all the reasons to feel that we have a good chance to win...considering our team'sability...then come to the negatives of the Indian team as I mentioed...so we actually have a good chance to win, which the stats based odds don't refllect accurately..

I don't believe in watching a game...with my heart saying that we will lose

or thinking about the odds...will believe till the last moment that we can turn around if we are down...that's how the match is more enjoyable

don't want to lose several times before losing...watch like a winner ... By the time decision comes, match is over and enjoyed it full.... So no complains...except for playing dumb if they do..
