Australia missing from the opposition; putting them in takes us to the 7th place. Still great!

Nope Australia's there. They're 4th on that list

[Tiger444]

I don't think Abul will be fit enough for this game. Hopefully Rubel's fit again and ready to play.

Going to be missing this one, cause of exams.

[MyRoom]

Glad its going to be a day/night game.

Why don't you make this as the 1st post and caption "Bijoy" in Bangla?

Cool works here mate

I dont have any Bangla font as funky as that font. Plus IDK how to type Bangla. :S And it's too late. It's already saved, uploaded and deleted. Thanks though.

Thanks Moc.

Team for third ODI ideally the same as first 2 but because Abul has a strain this should be the team:

01.Tamim
02.Anamul
03.Naeem
04.Rahim
05.Nasir
06.Mominul
07.Mahmudullah
08.Mortaza
09.Gazi
10.Razzak
11.Rubel

I think its best to go with Rubel because he can bowl very good yorkers unlike Abul and some good bouncers. Plus he has a very good economical and ODI average with a decent strike rate with the ball.

Dayyum. That's a strong bowling attack sitting on the bench.

lol. Rubel should come in place of Abul if he's injured.

i think rubel over abul should have been the pick from the beginning of this ODI series, i'm guessing they took abul for his batting capabilities because rubel was bowling well in the tests and has proven to be a quality ODI bowler.

Razzak has taken 12 wickets @ 17.66 this year whilst Gazi has 7 at 7.14.

Gazi only played 2 games...

[Tiger Manc]

^^yeah I know.

[Tiger Manc]

A slight tweak in the dates and this stat looks even better. We're 3rd on the list and look at our batting average and run rate.

I thought of that then remembered Asia Cup

Anyone else surprised to see where Ireland is here? Forget about being close to us or even Zimbabwe, they're win-loss ratio is even worse than Kenya's.

[zsayeed]

Here is the Venue record for last 10, 5, 2 years and 12 months in Bangladesh by BD team:





Last 10 year BD has won 41% in Dhaka, last 5 years: 39%, last 2 years won 29%, and last 12 months won 40% (exactly) of the matches. Probabilistically speaking BD's probability of win is 40% I would think, but I feel it will be close to 80% by recent performance with this WI team. In fact - in the 1st test we almost should have won.

Maybe Monimul might get MoM in this match.

[Jadukor]

If we bat well we have a real chance to securing the series. WI batters will be confused about whether to go for shots or to buckle down since they have had two consecutive failures. If we bowl first, we have to use this to our advantage and build more pressure on them. If the target is within 250 then our batting looks okay enough to chase it down.

He will, only when he will be allowed to bat lit bit earlier like #3 or #4. Now he is coming too late to get MOM.

[mali007]

Now we have healthy competition for both batting and bowling positions . Thats good for a team to bring positive results.

[cricketboy]

Gayle will win WI atleast 1 match in the series, but we shouldn't let it happen for more than 1.

[Rifat]

Victory is not too difficult for West Indies....they are screwing up the basic things, should i reveal that secret or keep it to myself ?
