Congrats B'desh!!!

[Ultimate_Game]

On winning their maiden odi on SL soil :clap: B'desh has really shown a lot of improvement on their tour to SL. They were extremely competitive in the Test series while going down 0-1 and so far are tied with SL 1-1 in the odi series. Youngsters like Nasir Hossain have shown that B'desh has a great cricketing future and to think B'desh has performed so creditably without Shakib Al Hasan and Tamim Iqbal for the most part.

Also shows what a crap team SL is.

That too. They haven't won a Test series since Murali retired (other than against B'desh IIRC) and given that Sanga, Mahela, Dilshan and Malinga aren't going to play for too long, they have serious problems.

[Yadavanator]

Unfair result; DL handed Bangladesh a win they didn't deserve.

We were 78-1 after 13 overs, and the wicket that fell was due to a wrong decision by the umpire. Even if DL did not come in effect, we would have lost given the quality of the bowling attack we had to face: perera, mathews, kula(horrible off-form), that too with the Dew coming in effect

Congrats Duckworth and Lewis! :winky:

How? 105 needed in 80 balls with 9 wickets in hand on a flat track, any team would have found it difficult to defend. BD would not have chased this if they had to play full 50 overs and chasing 303. Side batting first always at a loss in such scenario specially on flat tracks. BD batsmen played suicidal cricket and threw their bats everything. They could not have done this for 50 overs.

We were 78-1 after 13 overs' date=' and the wicket that fell was due to a wrong decision by the umpire. Even if DL did not come in effect, we would have lost given the quality of the bowling attack we had to face: perera, mathews, kula(horrible off-form), that too with the Dew coming in effect[/quote'] you lost first match against the same attack, scoring 105 runs in 80 balls is easy than scoring 225 in 220 ball.

[Sidhoni]

Well played BD!

[game_changerr]

btw...has national holiday:beach: been declared in bd??

[Executioner]

you lost first match against the same attack' date=' scoring 105 runs in 80 balls is easy than scoring 225 in 220 ball.[/quote'] yes it is easier. But the fact remains that revised score was made smaller because of the fact that we lost only 1 wicket

[Junyfan]

well done Lions,hard fought game but unlucky with duckworth lewis,

[JaFanatic]

well done bangbros :hatsoff:

? How is it unfair when they were going at good pace and if the game was washed out at that point where B'desh were 78-1 then they would have won the game by 18 runs.

Well done Bangladesh! :clap: :clap: SL can't beat anyone nowadays, be in BD or NZ. Time to relegate them to Associate status. P.S. BD is better off without Tamim and Shakib. :agree:

Shakib and Tamim should play in this squad with the rest of the performers and Ban should kick the non-performers out.
