Match Thread: BCB XI vs NZ XI Practice Match | Dec 22, 2016 | BDT 4 AM| Cobham Oval, NZ

[MHRAM]

Now he gets a wicket

[Jadukor]

cant believe we originally left Rubel out for the NZ series.

[MHRAM]

Losing to a usual A team is acceptable, but these guys are just plain rookies no offense.

[Dilscoop]

Not the same 4 pacers but 4 pacers nonetheless

I think Rubel and Fizz were injured/recovering.

But yes, we have played a whole lot of 4 pace attack last year, that too, at home. LOVED IT! Miss Streak.

He needs to figure out his long sleeves situation, either he has to cut it 3/4 or get it buttoned. Seems to be bugging him.

That's all I can report at this point.

[Dilscoop]

BJ Horny gets a 50 next to his name.

[MHRAM]

We were 217/5 at this position, shows that our lower order batting let us down ONE MORE TIME.

Where is our designated finisher?

[Shubho]

Pretty innocuous bowling, I must say.

Then we were looking forward to that attack in the Wt20 but Taskin was banned, so Al-Amin played instead and that attack wasn't bad either.

agree. alamin is equally bad, hopefully he will be in selectors good book soon

shafiul is improved, good news for our reserve.

watch out for abu zayed, very impressive in BPl and now in NCL

Its not going to get any better since we might play 4 pacers

[Max100]

if they lose, tanvir dont have to play any matches plus our player will be serious enough

[Max100]

may be mahmudullah should play at 7, he is good with lower order

[firstlane1]

Mone hoy aj ekta upset hobe.....This time we are the losing end

[EmperorHawk]

Time for Soumya's entrance. We need 3 wickets.

[firstlane1]

If you ever want to be disappointed,call Shakib Al hasan

[NoName]

No one is taking this match seriously except the domestic Kiwi side, no need to panic lol.

[firstlane1]

Good knock for Horne, should kick-start his career

[EmperorHawk]

^ It's better if we lose. Tonok norbe. Haider will get scapegoated and kicked out hopefully.

And the Indian fans on cricinfo and live steam comment section. So much so that they had to disable the comment section. I had more fun reading their triggered comments than watching the game.

[Max100]

we lost. its not disappointing. our boys will get serious in main match

[firstlane1]

Its good to be back after the whole. "Incident"

[Jadukor]

If the pitch is like this our batsmen have to put big totals on the board. We need to put 300 and above scores and the top order has to deliver if we are to get there. Look at the tail end batting of the NZ XI.. very mature. Our tail without somebody like Nasir, will cause huge problems in the final power play overs.

[Kohli_Sox]

losing to third class nz team with all the big guns playing. hang your head in shame

[Jadukor]

Fizz, Taskin, Rubel, Mash... is a very long tail.. at least Mash needs to step up out of the last four batters
