The game probably wont start soon with the continuous rain

I hope Ashraful plays today, but the chances are quite slim

Oh well, hopefully one of the foreign batsmen underperform!

there is 0% chance for Ash to play.......

i thought they reason they decided to do in SA was because there would be no rain..

ahhhh the rain is killing!

lol, it can be a five over match. What a farce cricket is this T20 game.

They'll probably try to get a game out of whatever conditions out there.
Money is more important than safety of the players.
It would probably be a 12-over game, IF it happens.
Anyways...who cares....??

Believe me ICL was more interesting than IPL. May be because of Dhaka warriors. But I get no inspiration to watch a full match. Just casually watching a few guys some times. If Ash or Mash would be more active/important members of their teams, it could be different.

Rain has made it worse.

Sorry man gotta disagree with that, IPL is way more interesting, and has much more quality players in the league. The general buzz makes it more exciting. I know there are very few Bangladeshis and even they arent playing, which probably makes it even worse for us Bangladesh cricket supporters. As a general supporter of cricket as a whole, i must say IPL is way way better
