2nd Quarter Final - India v Bangladesh (19th March)

[viriya]

Raina needs to go after Shakib. Ball going to spin into him.

Yea good call.. should've bowled Nasir out.

 

[nevermind]

that lbw man ...fffff cmon bangers!

 

[Contra]

oh come on Rohit ffs

this pp to murder us

 

[ankitj]

Good that boundaries are coming. Shouldn't play that many dot balls in between though. Yeah, I am greedy.

 

[Dissector]

So what's a par score for this pitch? 260? India looking pretty good here; this partnership has been huge. I think BD will struggle with a target above 270 which is looking likely now.

 

[viriya]

Is it plausible to think this kind of over will repeat 13 more times for India?

280-300 should be a reasonably good score if you bowl decently.

Average first innings score in this ground in recent times has been 290 according to the commentators.

 

[ankitj]

Neat shot that from Raina.

 

[viriya]

Can Bangladesh chase 300?

 

[Zinzan]

Falling to pieces here Bangers...forget 300, could well be 330 which would be beyond them...shame.

 

[Zinzan]

Can Bangladesh chase 300?

Yes, but not 330.

 

[halba]

this is going to be a bash fest

 

[Jono]

Got a fat English bloke hating hard on India in front of me.

Kills ya to have booked these tickets knowing it's the English quarter final, and then copping this.

Rohit should go big here. Possibly bat the 50.

 

[viriya]

Yes, but not 330.

Yea if Rohit is around at the end 330 is on for sure.

GIMH's at the ground?

 

[Contra]

awe rain..

 

[OverratedSanity]

Massive problem I have with DRS right there.

The margin of error with showing where the ball pitched should be much less than the margin of error showing where the ball would have hit. Similarly, the margin of error showing where the ball would have hit the stumps should be much less when the back leg is back than when it is forward.

But they're not margins of error.

Frustrating.

Hadn't thought about this. Very true.

 

[Athlai]

What's 50/50 here? 270?
