WC 2023 warm up matches.

[godzilla]

is willow cricket the only online platform for canada?

England made a habit of spanking all opposition bowlers into oblivion in the past 5 years. They are so aggressive even during test matches. This will be the hardest challenge yet for our bowlers. I hope we don't panic even if we get hit for runs. Just focus on taking wickets

[iDumb]

Well the match is probably gonna get washed out. 70 to 80 percent chance of rain 1 hour into the game. 40 peceny prior.

[Jadukor]

Ok.. might not be too bad if this gets washed out. We played a lot of games already. Everyone is in good shape.

I think a bowling innings will be good than a total wipeout..let's see how our bowlers can handle the English juggernaut

[iDumb]

well Bangladesh chose to bat first. So I don't think we will get much bowling unless weather report is wrong.

[Jadukor]

Good decision. ENG can sweat in the heat lol

very good decision to bat first, if you were thinking about win and lose and not the practice then bowing first would have been better because batting in light becomes easier

but glad to see BD thinking about the batting practice and bowling under light practice

and also the heat

after the SL innings Meraz looked really matured, it might be an unpopular opinion but I want to play meraz @ 4 but not sure how the batting order will be like after 4 if meraz bats at 4

[iDumb]

T&T (tanzid tamim) the dynamite...excited. Sky looks clean for now...

u need to score 370 on this p8itch.

----

loss of early opening pair still a problem unfortunately. cant have that on a minimum 300+ pitch

[adamnsu]

Liton has again gone to his bad habits. I think he will struggle for a year like this

[iDumb]

Liton needs to stop walking before umpire gives any signal. Gloves touches are tough to see. This is a warm up match. Even in real match, No walking like a dumass.

also sarfoudola umpiring a BD game (lol), make his life tougher.

[Night_wolf]

the negative thinker in me is thinking tamim jnr is scoring all his runs in the World cup warm ups for the world cup


shut up the negative thoughts damn it. And liton out horrible form continues

[adamnsu]

What I find odd from the recent matches are that the batsman when they get out seem to have a dumb shocked impression and dont want to leave the crease.

[adamnsu]

Aye bolod gullar ki kono sense nai???? So early taking running risks with one ram bolod already back in the pavilion

lol. you are not the only one. we have been conditioned to think we all have limits and good runs are never sustainable for us.


he is part of a wc champion team atleast and hope got different mindset than us. but lot of edgy stuff so far...

[adamnsu]

Liton and Shanto the same bolods they were! They never learn. Only a few good knocks and then again just like the term kuiitar lez jibonnay shojja hobe na.

so it was not even out because he wasn't holding the bat with the glove the ball touched.

i hope you are watching him. He is a terrible top order bat.

at the moment with Eng bowing i dont think ridoy/shakib/mushfik etc would have been any better to be honest

[Night_wolf]

bhai ai flat pitch e 30 ball e 13 kore match jitar kotha vaba jabena, I retake my comment about meraz

[Night_wolf]

Tamim jnr out..good innings but cant say a solid one...many chances

its not the strike rate, most his runs came from edges, he is lucky to be there. and balls keep going past his bat - like a tail ender. I think he is better at playing spin. a little bit of Pace and bounce and he looks like a headless chicken.

btw Tamim sr inclusion would have caused liton position to be in dangerous all of a sudden. He would have never made to 11 straight away.. that's delusional thinking. at the end he probably would have played less than 5 matches if any. Now we got an extra spin option instead

yeah adil rasid in and a great death touch 4 by meraz..if we are early 2 down meraz is not the way to go @4 but if we lose 2 wickets in say 25 overs i think meraz is not a bad option

[iDumb]

riyad wants a 25 ball 30 to cement his place in playing 11. but we are at 22 overs and 1 more batter left.
