Shakib!!

 

[jonbrooks]

NZ doing its best to lose this game.

 

[Flem274*]

ok ronchi's a kiwi. you can tell because he's struggling against bangers.

 

[jonbrooks]

At least our whole line up will get a hit. We need this with the play offs starting soon.

 

[straw man]

Wonder how much Taylor would take out of that innings..

Can't take anything out of it afaics. And definitely can't afford to occupy the crease like that in a knockout.

This game has that feeling of nervousness, our batsmen walking through treacle with dot after dot and even when a boundary is hit it's more eerie quiet relief from the crowd than a cheer.

And now Ronchi out, oh man.

 

[Daemon]

Shakib!!

ffs daemon you're supposed to be rooting for NZ

but this is so awesome

India need to get into the semis you idiot

...but..shakib

 

[Flem274*]

bangladesh are favourites here, which is why marcuss has turned up.

also pretty convinced they're made of kryptonite.

 

[NZTailender]

Bangladesh are playing really well. Just when they seem to slip Shakib will do something with the field or ball to keep the pressure on. They're not in the Quarters due to luck.

 

[viriya]

And people question whether he's the best all-rounder in the world.

 

[jonbrooks]

This is a good game. Bang's haven't given up. They are really reminding me of the way SL played in the mid to late 90s. A lot of fire in their belly.

 

[Moss]

Shakib vs NZ. Struggling to think of any one-man tormentor of a side quite like him.

 

[jcas0167]

Vettori's home ground, he'll be fine.

 

[jonbrooks]

Bangladesh are playing really well. Just when they seem to slip Shakib will do something with the field or ball to keep the pressure on. They're not in the Quarters due to luck.

Shakib's impressed me from the first time I saw him play. It was a test series in which both Vettori and Shakib got 8 or 9 wickets in the match.

 

[Flem274*]

if shakib didn't exist life would be so much sadder but also so much easier when my team plays bangladesh.

 

[halba]

the shot selection is absurd

 

[Daemon]

ohhhhhhh shiat
