Bangla need to chase more than the last match

Aus is going to give Bangla about 330-340 to chase. Despite having a more varied bowling attack...Aus will lose today.

Lets see if Bangla can exploit Aussies' 5th bowler weakness..

 
Sangfroid 2019-06-20 11:45:09 

If they can get thru Stark and Cummins, I'm backing them.

 
bolls 2019-06-20 11:50:10 

They are not chasing it. Aus is not Wasteundies and they have two world class bowlers whereas Wasteundies have one leg failure and wrongarse run-up.

Right now Bangla bowling foolishness. They may need to chase over 350

Most probably over 370.

For some reason, Bangla has lost its "bowling nerve"

Sensational innings by Warner. You did very well to make 166. But, you are not the man of the match until Shakib bats.
big grin

As much as I love Bangla. Short boundaries. They have 7 top batsmen who can sore a minimum of 50. Chasing over 360 is too much for them. If they do they will certainly win the WC.

 
solidrock 2019-06-20 12:55:11 

Souyma has taken 3 wickets and then goes to bat feeling on top of the world. Another X factor. Watch the ride. Entertaining chase even if Bangla loses.
big grin

Too much 381 to overhaul. But, Bangla will be trying hard and that lends to great cricket watch. Go Bangla as long and as hard as you can.

Until Sabbir is out, Banla is not done. They have started well. 23 for 0 after 3 overs.Now a run-out. Why does Aus seem to get these breaks?

last match was the dress rehearsal. Come on Bangladesh!

At present, after 14 overs they have the right momentum to chase 370. Win or lose I do not want to see Shakib get out...he simply is a class batsman! Shakib hit a third big century on the trot!

Bangla is now seriously chasing. Wow! Wow!

I so want them to win. Would that make Oz a minnow?

It would mean Bangla accomplished what WI should have done easily in giving away a simple run chase against Aus.

 
Sangfroid 2019-06-20 15:44:21 

These Tigers manish bad

"They are biting" above their pay grade! big grin

 
solidrock 2019-06-20 15:52:47 

If Bangla is at near 200 by the 30th over and (3 wickets down only) the ride will be rocky for Aus. Das and the little man are the match.

 
Sangfroid 2019-06-20 15:57:45 

Yup

 
solidrock 2019-06-20 16:47:03 

Too much to do, but they are trying hard!

Just shows the value of the extra 50 runs that West Indies left on the table with slow batting and a poor finish
