1st June - Group A - England v Bangladesh

[Prince EWS]

Warne names Finch but not Smith as an example of the strength of Australia's batting. Couldn't make it up.

I am quite perplexed by this over reaction to be honest.. 158/2 off 30 overs.. Guys we've seen 250 off the first 30 overs in recent times...let's have some perspective here

Also keep in mind BD will probably end up 30 runs short

What happened to Woakes?

Side strain. One of worst bowlers injuries, could be his tournament.

 

[Firebreaker]

Stokes is a really bad bowler.Good for Tamim to put him in his place

 

[Pratters]

Great innings by Tamim so far. England missed a beat by not playing their main spinner.

He has injury issues ffs.

has something to do with 'positive intent' and 'aggression' I assume.

 

[Daemon]

Shakib's a really good finisher, backing him to play a blinder when he comes in

 

[Pratters]

England's bowling has been ordinary today. Without very good wicket takers, it's difficult to win with new odi rules. Australia at least has many strike bowlers. Interesting.

75* off 45 or 0 off 2, stumped 2nd ball against Root at a crucial time.

They're going to fold for 270 and England with chase it in 35 overs I reckon

 

[Pratters]

Bangladesh should make 320 from here seeing as England is a bowler short.

 

[91Jmay]

Thanks Gautam

Reckon they get 315ish, but I also reckon we can chase it.

 

[weldone]

Shakib's a really good finisher

Really? I think Sabbir and Dullah are better finishers (Shakib is a better bat overall no doubt)

 

[weldone]

Last 5 or so overs have been slow. They need to get going now.

 

[Pratters]

If England loose this, all hell will break loose, as JR would say.

 

[Pratters]

Last 5 or so overs have been slow. They need to get going now.

It's important they don't loose wickets right now. Will start hitting after 35 which is a fair strategy.

 

[Burgey]

He's taller of the two batting currently..and bats left-handed this fella

Stop dribbling.

 

[Firebreaker]

Offspinners are bowling good here

 

[Firebreaker]

I think Bangladesh will not score 300
