We should plan to choke West Indies with spin

[Navo]

The Windies bat deep, in terms of firepower especially. Who do we have that can match their big hitting? Tamim wastes deliveries, so its down to Anamul, Shakib and Mushy...Zia and Mash too if the stars align for us correctly.

From the Dutch bludgeoning to Umar Akmal and Maxwell's clean hitting today, it seems that we need to think about how to score at 200+ SR, not just a respectable 120-130 SR

...and then we will choke ourselves to defeat.

bring back Gazi, he loves to take Gayle's wicket... honestly speaking this is our only chance against WI to win a game in super 10. others look to tough to handle.

To be honest, Ashwin and Mishra aren't the best bowlers in the world either. If we bowl our usual line and length WI will struggle the same as what happened in Afghanistan, although routing them for 72 is highly unlikely. I suppose WI will score double of 72 which is 144 but still a mediocre score on this ground given that India are currently destorying Windies attack and almost 380 runs were scored in the previous match.

Go back watch the replay of the game. Ashwin (most over rated bowler in the world) had minimum of 3 WIDE balls PER OVER. chagol gula mota back side diye dot ball banaisey. Line and length diley 6 hobay.

as its a two match ticket, main event is always last

[BD_TigerZ]

Keep lendl Simmons and Dwayne Smith out in the middle as long as possible

[Maysun]

Gayle will score 200 against our spinners.

[Jadukor]

That India game couldn't have come at a worse time for us. West Indies were asleep in the India game... they will wake up big time against us. There is no way that two matches in a row, their power hitters will choose to be oddly circumspect against spinners. I think we are in for a hammering.
If we bat second, hopefully we can dish out what we receive to some extent and make the game competitive.

i would say a realistic score: 137*

[BD_TigerZ]

Bowl gazi and mash early. Possibly even finishing their quota.

[Fazal]

If batting first, we need to utilize the 1st 6 poer play even that means risking 1 or 2 wickets, that's fine. If we don't want to lose Tamim or Anamul's wickt doing so, then bring them back laster: give chance to someone like Zia and let hi hack fist few overs and see what happens. If it fails, they let Tamim and Anamul do their ususal thing, i.e srtart as they do and build the innings form there on. Zia will be the perfect player to utilize the field restriction with nothing to lose if he fails.



I think if it works and we can score 50+ in five 6 overs, then we have Rahim, Sakib, and otheres to take the score to 180+. if it fails, there will be still enough players left to get our ususal target i.e. 130+.

As Rahim said, we have nothing to lose. So why not try attacking and make them unprepared? What we have to lose if few wickets in first 5 overs?

Not going to happen... even if WI gets tied by couple of spinners our brilliant captain and tactician is going to bring a medium pacer like Farhad Reza to ease up the pressure and let the opponent run away with the game. Over the last few months, the same story has been repeating every single match.

ya, sounds like we are playing a dead rubber match.
You understand the true character of a person when they are under pressure, Mushy seem to have lost it.

[akabir77]

We want to choke? but we will drawn in WI spins too... better have a two paced wkt. I would prefer the wk they used during pak-ind match. and hope we bat second. if we bat 1st on those kind of wkt we will be out in 80. (but In Shal Allah we will win the toss and win the game)

I like your spirit

There was similar doom and gloom when we were up against Afghanistan. Look what happened! In Shaa Allah we will win tomorrow!

Lets try to be happy that things won't go down like the NED and SL game today.

Realize both teams are coming from a defeat. Although our defeat against HK was more humiliating than WI's defeat against IND.

So this match will show how well a team can bounce back from their poor performance.

Can WI wake up from their sleeping batting?
Can BAN prove that they are better than collapsing, choking, and bowling like associates?

The feelings are mutual

Before the Afghanistan match I saw the state of the fans on this forum. The players looked more focused and positive than the fans. Hopefully, that HK match will be nothing but a hiccup(its a t20 anyways, even Dutch beat England in 09).

InShaaAllah we will win

[Shehwar]

I hope Mominul plays. Apart from being a quality batsman he had a golden arm!

[adamnsu]

Seems like West Indies Spinners R4ping the BD batsmen
