Ponka Posted December 11, 2011 Posted December 11, 2011 Add all the embarrassing records here. Pakistan batted 176 overs against Bangladesh which is the longest any team has batted against Bangladesh. 175 overs was previous best. Embarrassing to see ^^ happen after 12 years of test cricket status. After every test match loss they keep coming back saying they will get better but seems like they keep getting worse!
Ponka Posted December 11, 2011 Author Posted December 11, 2011 This is the 3rd time, 5th wicket partnership crossed 250 mark against Bangladesh. Sri lanka did it once, WI did it once and now Pak did it.

Hello, 176 is not that much at all. Other countries have batted for more than 176 overs on 20 occasions against India. And 8 times in the last 12 years. The most recent instance being the the last Test in Mumbai, where WI batted for 184 overs. From your point of view then, India should hide their faces in shame and never play Test cricket again.

Ponka Posted December 11, 2011 Author Posted December 11, 2011 Bangladesh already holds the top 2 places in "Most consecutive Series defeats" and going strong to get the number 3 place as well. Team # Conescutive Series Defeats Time Span Bangladesh 16 1999-2005 Bangladesh 11 2005-2009 NewZealand 10 1950-1958 Australia 7 1884-1890 :| South Africa 7 1910-1924 :| NewZealand 7 1994-1996 Zimbabwe 7 1999-2001 West Indies 7 2005-2008 India 6 1932-1949 South Africa 6 1935-1951 Zimbabwe 6 2001-2003 Bangladesh 6* 2009-2011 (present) As you can see Bangladesh covers the entire period from 1999-2011 with top 2 spot for most conescutive series losses and going strong to get hold of that 3rd place in next year or so. :facepalm:
Naaz-neesh Posted December 11, 2011 Posted December 11, 2011 ^^^agree stupid thread, many teams have suffered being on the field for over 175 overs. Bangladesh's problem is more to do with their batting anyways.

Read Ponka's message with the series defeat message and you will get the point. India has a bigger test history and not all of those 20 ocassions India suffered a loss. In 12 years of cricket, Bangladesh has been letting more than scoring more themselves while suffering defeat as well.
the_indian_fan Posted December 11, 2011 Posted December 11, 2011 about time icc took away this test status from bangladesh & gave it to ireland

Also Ponka cannot call a regular Test match record 'embarassing' when it happens all the time. Ponka should be more judicious in terms of singling out facts that he wants to highlight and not copy them directly from cricinfo commentary.

Ponka takes pride in writing posts without any belittle spelling mistakes etc. :cantstop: Well Ponka didnt just copy paste it from cricinfo but you're right about one point i.e being correct with superlatives. Ponka should have mentioned that record was embarrassing to watch for viewers and that Bangladesh should not feel embarrassed by it. There're bigger things to come in future. :giggle:
Ponka Posted December 11, 2011 Author Posted December 11, 2011 Anyways, keep adding records to this thread, which is the purpose of this thread.

King Tendulkar Posted December 11, 2011 Posted December 11, 2011 Bangla are tragic and should not have test status stipped from them but actually banned from cricket. Ban the hobbits I say! Better of investing money to develop a cricket nation in afghanistan then bangla. Red meat eaters will always be better then fish and rice eaters!

One of the highest consumers of red meat in Asia.
Spiderguy252 Posted December 11, 2011 Posted December 11, 2011 What a pathetic team! How much money has been wasted on this country, seriously? We gave them test status indirectly, now time to revoke it me thinks. As for ODIs, I guess they should automatically be relegated to associate status then, right? So be it. Losers.
Lord Posted December 11, 2011 Posted December 11, 2011 Sharapova has bowled 100 no balls in test cricket:hysterical:
