*Official* Australia in Bangladesh

Sure it's been mentioned before, but what is Shakib's issue with bowling Mahmudullah? Just 4 overs the day. Much more about him that Razzak or Suhrawadi, surely?

He takes way too many risks these days going for tight runs. Probably didn't help that he was batting with Watto on this particular occasion.

Not applicable here. Watson was the one running to the danger end, it was his call all along (and he made it with ease in the end). Ponting was running too lazily and ball watching too much.

Positves so far -
- Michael Clarke
- Ricky Ponting looked in supreme touch before he was suprisingly run out.
- Johnson has started to get his act together in one day cricket

Negatives -
- Arun Lol

He's a crap bowler look at his Average & Economy

I heard Lol was commentating on the IPL as well.. how can he juggle both simultaneously?

Has always looked decent whenever I've seen him, which is quite a lot the last year or so.

He's always been good in this format.

edit: I meant bowling wise

It's like a horrible plague that you can't escape.

Mahmudullah does seem to get underbowled a fair bit, reckon a lot of other international teams would see him bowl close to a full 10 fairly often but Banger's plethora of spin tends to see him sidelined. Is a far more attacking spinner than Razzak or Shuvo, yet tends to go for runs.

Siddons, good job targeting Clarke

You guys can take him back after the 3rd ODI

I'll take Arun Lal over Shamim Chowdhury

Not very accurate. He looks like a proper bowler and gets good flight, drift and spin but he can bowl some dosh which isn't appreciated in one day cricket, which probably stems a lot from the fact that he considers himself a batsman. I think there's also an element of Shakib having a bit of a rivalry with him at lower levels.

Definitely under-bowled at Test level though even if perhaps not in one day cricket.

 

[Spark]

Hahaha what? No way was that a wide.

 

[Spark]

Good stuff Binga.

Johnson barely appealed for that at all.

Horrible mess of a shot though.

 

[Kylez]

Attrocious footwork from Nafees there, absolutely awful batting. I'd expect that from an U14's player not an international batsmen.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Bangladesh showing why they deserve a guaranteed spot in 2015.

Lee & Johnson bowling some challenging stuff tho, tbf.

 

[Burgey]

Genuine hint of Ranga in Watto's uncoloured hair here.

 

[Jono]

Watson acting like a **** as usual.

Loses his marbles anytime a bowler charges him. As if he's bowling 145+ still and its a sin to charge him.

 

[Jono]

Shakib at least stay with Tamim and make this respectable.

 

[Howe_zat]

I've officially moved from being sceptical of Raqibul to just not rating him entirely.
