And although I saw bad scheduling in sports before, two games in two days in that heat + weird hotel and match locations + major preferential treatment for the "hosts" might be the worst. FYI, a) scheduling is not done by BCCI. Ind had to play 2 games in 2 days as well - vs HK and Pak. Do you think BCCI would want that esp considering Ind players are breaking down? Only Pak does not play 2 games in 2 days b) In many ICC WCs, teams are assigned spots before the competition to help with trip planning esp for the fans. In your e.g SL = B1, BD = B2, AFG = unseeded. Since AFG qualifies instead of SL, AFG becomes B1 Again this is not determined by BCCI. We would like to see BD do well but don’t spoil the support for it here by making unnecessary comments w/o doing proper research .... ofc, if you want to use BCCI to feel good about your team or whatever and console yourself, please feel free to blame it Link to comment

Even Indian govt thinks BCCI are cheats. Who are you kidding? Maybe they should've just kicked out Bang'LOL'desh from the tournament citing for the reason that they are just a waste of time.

See below as posted on this thread: 11 hours ago, zen said: Asia Cup has been won by Ind, Pak and SL. This time I would not mind having a brand new champion Though both AFG and BD would be playing back-to-back games tomm vs Pak and Ind respectively PS I support AFG more than BD as if it wins, it would be sensational .... like a dream story! ..., Am ok if BD wins it too .... Ind has won many such tourneys so it is ok if there is a brand new champion Edited September 21, 2018 by zen Link to comment

jf1gp_1 Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 AlI teams have looked vulnerable. Barring few glimpse here and there all we have seen is mediocre cricket. Dont know if its conditions or rustiness or too much cricket but any one can be in final. Link to comment
Sachinism Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Afg spinners on these wickets could tie up one of the big teams quite easily Link to comment
zen Posted September 23, 2018 Author Share Posted September 23, 2018 In lieu of match thread, AFG vs BD is interesting "Afghanistan require another 88 runs with 7 wickets and 10.5 overs remaining" Likely scenario: If AFG wins today, and BD beats Pak, a shootout based on NRR. Assuming that Ind beats AFG If BD wins today, a shoot b/w Pak and BD for a place in the final Link to comment
zen Posted September 23, 2018 Author Share Posted September 23, 2018 AFG loses 4th wkt .... hope Rashid is promoted to get a few 6s in Mashrafe Mortaza to Asghar Afghan, OUT, Asghar Afghan c Mahmudullah b Mashrafe Mortaza 39 (47b 2x4 0x6) SR: 82.97 Link to comment
zen Posted September 23, 2018 Author Share Posted September 23, 2018 So BD vs Pak will be a SF Link to comment
Asim Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 should be a close-contest SF... or one-sided in fav of BD? probably most recent Pak vs BD is Pak losing 3-Nill? Link to comment

Both the teams got thrashed by Ind and had a close game vs AFG .... Would depend up on which team makes the least mistakes and which players have a good day Link to comment
Zero_Unit Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 So far both PAK and BD performed similarly in this asia cup. Had real trouble with AFG. Got demolished by IND. Also demolished another team in the initial round (SL by BD and HK by PAK). Both are more than capable of defeating each other (not IND though ) Link to comment
MCcricket Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 I don't mind Pakistan winning, just hate the crying, spilt milk loosers, what cheating, lol. Link to comment
zen Posted September 25, 2018 Author Share Posted September 25, 2018 What a game! Good to see AFG finally holding the nerves. If they had done that vs Pak and BD, they would have been in the final and who knows even won the Asia Cup Link to comment
