PS. The pitch is flat so is the match thread.

[bujhee kom]

Aibar Inshallah!
Go Bangladesh!!!

[Purbasha T]

Raising the bar higher and higher each and every match. And now it's time to raise it the highest. InshaAllah, tomorrow is THE day.

[Miraz]

Bismillah. Good Luck Bangladesh. It's a must win game for us.

[bujhee kom]

Inshallah this time we are aiming for a solid 400, ki bolen bhais!

মানুষ পরাজিত হয়, ব্যর্থ হয়, কিন্তু স্বপ্নেরা বেঁচে থাকে। আগামীকাল ইনশাল্লাহ হবে স্বপ্নপূরণ।

[Wakidul]

"Win the toss and Bat first" - sorry that was shakib speaking!

I MEAN WIN THE TOSS AND FIELD FIRST

[hoodlum]

I m not going to be optimistic this time.May the best team win.

[cricman]

Still Fuming about the other game ... ruined my entire sleeping pattern.

Lets go Tigers

[Equinox]

Exactly same from me

[r_kalar_2]

Keep up good work tigers.I am reasonably satisfied till now.

[nycpro96]

Like the batting. Nothing much to really say about the bowling. Keep the same XI. Demote Shakib and switch positions with Riyad. That'll send out a message. Or else Shakib will have the pressure to score tomorrow. And score in such a way that Inshallah we will win.

[WarWolf]

Bismillah. We are going to win this one inshallah.

[Beamer]

We need someone to convert the high fifties to centuries. Bowlers won't help much in this series. So, we have to ride on our batsmen. If you get a 60, try to convert it to 100 next time. We need a bit more RRR during the over 30-45. If 300 looks possible, aim for 330. If 280 is max, aim for 310. Looks like we will bat first regardless we win or lose the toss.

what changes in the team for this game u guys r expecting?

[SS]

Spinners are not getting too much help bowling later part of the day...and maybe also in the morning...we might need more medium pacers type...Raz is good but Aftab might be helpful if he still has something left with his military pace...We are still not playing according to the situation as keeping winning team is good but the scenario is different so he have to select players based on the situation....On the other hand these games is all abou batsmen as the pitch is batsmen friendly...adding an allrounder might help who can bowl a bit too
I guess I felt like we are one good pacer short...

[Eshen]

Riyad and Naeem both deserve promotions. Send Shakib and Mushfiq to bat at #7 and #8 instead of them.

[cricman]

Any news on Dillu?

Could be a good chance for Sanga Batting 1st based on us fielding for the 2nd half of the india match. Very short recovery time.

[tigerpain]

hahahahahahah lol Bismillah..

I was in the ground today (vs ind) and me, my friends planning to stay/sleeping in the gallery for tomorrow's match (vs SL) if we won!! we all know that didn't happen but the way the boys played I must say better days are coming very soon! I won't be at the gound for this match but all my love and wishes will be with Tigers! Go Shakib, Go Tigers!! Always with you!

If you dream hard you have to play hard.
Catches win matches.

Batting second after winning the toss. I don't think we need any other changes except some batting order (Riad, Naeem up the order after Ash).

[Eshen]

Leave Rock at #4. He did his job this morning - stabilized the innings after Shak threw away his wicket like a moron (once again).

[mona]

Sri Lanks? I like it!

C'mon we can do this!
