ODI also is now an extension of t20

Bangladesh doesnt have the ability to go much above 300

 

They have no X factor in batting

BD actually has an Okay ODI side..  In SC I expect they will give tough time to most sides.   They are atm like India used to be in early 2000's.  They post 270-280 totals & look to defend them.  Reliable middle order & good spinning all rounders. 

Test & T20 cricket is probably weakest format for them.

Only added into the squad..  Would be surprising if he plays though.  X factor player.  Are they expecting Extra bounce in Oval?

Pissant turns 33 tomorrow.

 

No way his best bud Kohli is dropping him on his birthday.

He will be hammered

Why the hell would Kohli require extra bowler? Because he is an idiot of the highest *ing order. 

Moron... Add batsmen.

Think Kohli will play Thakur in place of Ishant, no other change cos template is template. And batsmen are important. 

[nitinbwj]

It will be the first day of 2-1 Eng tomorrow as I have no hope in Kohli making any sane decisions.

The reason Root looks nervous playing the Aussies is because they have bowlers who regularly bowl over 140ks.

 

Our entire lot has settled down to 130-138 k  with the occasional ball reaching 140k. Root loves these speeds for his  nudges and dabs for runs. Averages 62.x vs India (74.x in England) Averages 40.x vs Aus (41.x in England).
