Match Thread: Bangladesh Vs Worcestershire - 2nd Practice OD Match

[Rubu]

Good Luck to bangladesh team. The game starts about 17 hours from now. On 12th June 9:45 GMT.

We desperately need a good show to have some mental strength ahead of the Netwest series.

The game starts at:

9:45 GMT
10:45 BST
5:45 EDT
3:45 Bangladesh Time.

GMT now is:

Weather Looks OK. Weather Link

According to whatmore, all 15 players will be tested during the practice matches. which gives us the following probable squad

1. Shahriar Nafis (for JO)
   
2. Nafis Iqbal
   
3. Habibul Bashar
   
4. Mohammad Ashraful (in place of Rajin)
   
5. Tushar Imran
   
6. Aftab Ahmed
   
7. Khaled Masud
   
8. Manjarul Rana (in place of rafique)
   
9. Khaled Mahmud
   
10. Taposh Baisya (in place of mashrafee)
    
11. Nazmul Hossain
    

Players like JO and mashrafee is certained to play and need a rest. so, i'm guessing they will be kept out.

Our opponent is Worcestershire. They are much stronger side than the one we faced yesterday. Shoeb Akter is also set to play this match. following is their squad beside him:

Ben Smith
David Leatherdale
David Wigley
Gareth Batty
Graeme Hick
James Pipe
Kabir Ali
Matt Mason
Muhammed Nadeem Malik
Ray Price
Shaftab Khalid
Stephen Moore
Stephen Peters
Steve Davies
Vikram Solanki
WPUJC Vaas

Not sure who will play among them.

[mahbubH]

From today's DS

For today's match Bangladesh have made four changes. Mohammad Ashraful is coming in for Rajin Saleh, Shariar Nafees replaces Nafees Iqbal while Mashrafee Bin Mortuza and Mohammad Rafique make ways for Tapash Baisya and Manzarul Islam.

[Akib]

Thank god this is not a 4-day or 3 day match. Hick would have killed us... Anyways... this seems like a good match. Although id rather see BD face Glamorgan and Ganguly, facing Shoaib should be nice.

May Allah save Bangladesh from all the embarrasment and make the heads of the players work!

[Mueid]

[Fazal]

So is it safe to say Rajin is out from atleast first ODI?

[babubangla]

So it's not a day-night match?

So, Bangladesh decided to try Mahmud one more time? Or like the Mini Worldcup, he will play the practice matches and sit out on the real matches?

[mahbubH]

Mahmud played against WI in the ICC champions trophy .... cannot remember whether he played against SA.

[bd_cricket]

What happened to Pilot? Why he is not playing? And Rajin is the keeper!!!!! Is that a mistake?

Any radio commentary???

[nsd3]

Why is Rajin thje Wicketkeeper today?
First run off a no ball!!!

[bd_cricket]

Selectors already tried him as opener as a change and succeeded. This time opening position is not vacant - too many candidates there. Now they are probably trying to put him with another change - as a secondary keeper.

[mahbubH]

Extras (b 4, nb 1)

Probably Rajin is doing wicket keepers job. Already FOUR byes.

[bd_cricket]

And bye 4. Courtesy of the new wicket keeper.

[Sam]

So the final teams are:
Bangladeshis team:
Javed Omar, Shahriar Nafees, *Habibul Bashar, Tushar Imran,
Mohammad Ashraful, Aftab Ahmed, +Rajin Saleh, Khaled Mahmud,
Tapash Baisya, Manjural Islam Rana, Nazmul Hossain.

Worcestershire team:
SC Moore, SM Davies, Z de Bruyn, *BF Smith, DKH Mitchell, SD Peters, +DJ Pipe, Shoaib Akhtar, RW Price, MN Malik, DH Wigley.

Worcestershire won the toss and opted for batting. After 1.5 overs they are 7/0
