Shri, Have you left your laptop unattended and your cousin is using it?

 

[halba]

hope deshis can play with freedom, knowing that they have nothing to lose.

going to need something special from them. though india's bowling attack isnt exactly super strong.

 

[Zinzan]

Feels like Bangers threw 20-25 runs away just in half-misses & overthrows.

 

[GotSpin]

So Boyz. If India lose this how can we reschedule the next world cup to ensure we get all our Indian matches in?

Backing India to win this, people don't realize that this isn't a ground that you can just come in and smash easily. It's going to require some really solid batting to chase this.

To be fair, I doubt anyone is backing Bangladesh to chase it down, 7/1 on Betfair for them to do that.

Its to big of a target, massive ground, and India have bowled very well so far.

The Rohit thing was huge, it totally took the sails out of Bangladesh, they could have restricted to them to about 270 if the umpires had not been so useless. No cert to chase that, but still, a massive swing in momentum.

Nah we are the best in the business. #60outof60

Probably closer to 10 runs. This total should've been 270. 10 runs that were their fault.

Last 2 countries to win the wc on home soil get an automatic pass to the finals?

India undoubtedly favourites, but that 7/1 does sound like value. If Bang can manage to get through the first 15 overs only 1 down, it becomes a distinct possibility, unless you think the Indian spinners will be tough to get away after that

 

[cricman]

This is a lightning quick outfield

 

[Shri]

Shri, Have you left your laptop unattended and your cousin is using it?

Have never made that excuse before. I own up to my ****. They were both ****s, I was an asshole, its over, lets move on.

 

[Contra]

Tamim is the guy I'm genuinely scared of tbh.

 

[Shri]

How not to lead.

 

[Teja.]

Amazing that everyone of Dhawan, Rohit, Kohli, Rahane, Raina and Dhoni have played really important and substantial innings this WC and the Indian bowling has been the best I've seen over 5-6 ODIs.

Will be really gutted if we lose here, we're playing so well and it's not due to Tendulkar being mots.

Good from this ****

Nah.. a lot more than 10...I've probably been spoiled a bit watching sides like NZ, Aust & SA in the field, but looked to me like they missed at least 20 runs in little possible half-stops, moving slightly too late or diving over the top of it. And that's saying nothing of the overthrows & a couple of really tough diving-forward catch opportunities missed.
