[robbypark]

That was the biggest choke in the history of cricket. Pathetic.

**** it's been a while since a cricket match has made me scream in delight. Love MSD.

In between the general crappiness from both sides that last over from Ashwin was amazing. Wicket from the first ball and then four dot balls. Nice bit of captaincy to give him a slip too.

And his suggestion to mankad the batsmen in the interview towards the end lolol.. just imagine if that had actually happened!

 

[abmk]

The last ball was short and wide too. Unbelievable.

that one was fine. Not easy to hit.

The two balls before that on the other hand were terrible.

 

[weldone]

haha Ashwin's replies lol

 

[vcs]

Now I'm really regretting not going for this game LOL. Didn't even check the venues until a couple of days back.

 

[Contra]

omg captains in the same frame, that's kinda mean after a game like this.

 

[LightningStrike]

Was that the biggest choke in tournament history?

I can't think of any worse. Amazing if you're India, Amazingly bad if you're Bungledesh.

With around 7 RR requiring, what was the need for Mashrafe to come out? I don't find any reason. His wicket does not mean anything but why give oppositin something free. Also the option of him hitting few back at the end would remain there. But this being said, Mullah, Mushfiq should have finished this. This loss will haunt the players and fans for a long long time. And I don't want to see the face of Mithun ever again in a cricket field.

Well done to India for winning this. A win is a win.

what is viru's reaction?

 

[Contra]

what is viru's reaction?

LMFAO I totally forgot, was he doing commentary in Hindi during this game? I wonder if anyone knows, would have been hilarious viewing.

 

[vcs]

Were India out if they had lost this? I guess with their NRR, they were effectively gone. I know Bangladesh choked and all, but amazing how India managed to hold their nerve under that kind of pressure..

Still can't believe Mahmudullah's dismissal. Just atrocious, he has a full toss on his pads and he can easily work it into a gap for two. Plenty of space at midwicket and he hits it in the air. Shocking.

Bumrah did, Pandya didn't. He bowled filth.

 

[Spark]

What in the name of all that is holy happened here

 

[Contra]

Bumrah did, Pandya didn't. He bowled filth.

How badly he bowled is irrelevant when Bangladesh were even worse at handling his filth, the point is about handling pressure, Bangladesh were worse at it than India for those last 3 deliveries despite having performed better for the majority of the game.

No, India didn't handle the pressure well. That is the point of his comment. Their last over should have lasted 4 deliveries at most because of how badly he bowled. Just because Bangladesh came up with an all time great choke job doesn't mean India handled the pressure well. Totally nonsense statement.
