kubrickian Posted March 19, 2015 Posted March 19, 2015 Lets be honest, beating Bangladesh is not even half the achievement of beating SA in MCG. Infact, this victory is no different to the win over Ireland and Zimbabwe. But the Bangla fans and their arrogant nature makes is very sweet. So thank you guys :nice: More than being arrogant, they are just delusional and have inflated sense of self importance. A bit like Pakistan. When you are weak, you need to have some delusions (like saying a match is fixed or umpires are biased when they lose) because it would be too hard for them to face reality. Its a defense mechanism.
Sachinism Posted March 19, 2015 Posted March 19, 2015 The BCB has said it will lodge an appeal against the umpiring decision in Thursday's match that let Rohit Sharma off the hook, and do whatever is legally necessary. The decision prompted an angry response in Bangladesh, with expressions of outrage from several quarters and an unusually sharp outburst from the ICC president AHM Mustafa Kamal, who said that it appeared as though the umpires had come to the game with an agenda. Moments after Rohit was caught off a Rubel Hossain full-toss in the 40th over, umpires Aleem Dar and Ian Gould signaled no-ball but replays suggested that the ball was only waist-high when contact was made and on its way down. Bangladesh captain Mashrafe Mortaza talked to Dar briefly and later, in the post-match press conference, steered away from direct criticism of the umpires. The battle was taken up by officials and former officials. "Naturally we will appeal against these decisions in our report," BCB president Nazmul Hassan said. "It won't change the result, unfortunately. One wrong decision can make a huge difference in a World Cup quarter-final. I have had discussions with the ICC president (Mustafa Kamal) as no one else among the senior (ICC) officials were here in Melbourne. Legally what needs to be done, we will do it." Kamal, a planning minister in the current Bangladesh government and a former BCB president, was more strident. He told Bangladeshi TV reporters outside the MCG that the ICC should investigate the matter, and questioned whether the decisions were "deliberate or not". He however said he was speaking as a "fan" and not as the current ICC president. "From what I have seen, the umpiring was very poor," Kamal said. "There was no quality in the umpiring. It seemed as if they had gone into the match with something in mind. I am speaking as a fan, not as the ICC president. Umpires may make mistakes. The ICC will see if this was done deliberately. Everything is on record. The ICC has to investigate and inquire the issue to see if there's anything to it."." Kamal said that the backlash about the umpiring would compel the ICC into seeking further information on the issue. He also said he believed that other teams like Australia and South Africa would react similarly if they were also victims of poor umpiring decisions. "I am talking about the overall umpiring. I saw what all of you saw. Before I go to the next ICC board meeting, I can't speak on their behalf. We are an ICC member, right? So we can't talk like this against the ICC. They will review it. Everyone is speaking against the umpires so definitely the ICC will find out whether there was any wrongdoings." The reaction was similarly strong back home in Bangladesh. In the Dhaka University area, an effigy was seen burning with protesters chanting the names of the two on-field umpires of the World Cup quarter-final. There were processions in some parts of Dhaka and, according to TV reports, in other parts of the country too. Former Bangladesh batsman Athar Ali Khan wrote in his Facebook account of his distress at the no-ball decision, posting the following message: "Shocked & still cannot believe that the leg umpire called that a no-ball. Why no one is talking about this?" ICC president said "The umpires came to the match with an agenda" :omg::omg::omg::omg:
ViruDilSeKhelo Posted March 19, 2015 Posted March 19, 2015 ICC president said "The umpires came to the match with an agenda" :omg::omg::omg::omg: Does Athar Ali Khan do commentary? Think I heard him once. He sounds like a mentally disabled young donkey, no knowledge, no charisma, just nothing. I would rather listen to Harsha and he hasn't even lifted a bat in his life. And these kind of Bangla statements really show: A) They butt hurt and being childish B) Also they make it sound like the match depended on that no ball :hysterical: Dhoni would have had more time to come in and settle and dhoom dhoom their tigers. They also lost by over 100 runs but cry over this :((
