Match #21- Bangladesh vs South Africa (D)- Nassau County Cricket Stadium, New York- June 10th-- Group D

[Stefan9]

So lucky. Awful last 2 balls from keshav

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Maharaj delivered two full-tosses, but Bangladesh failed to capitalize on either opportunity.

 

[trundler]

That was very fun. Some very bad cricket at the end but so compelling.

 

[Kenneth Viljoen]

Proteas will kill me one day , I'm sure of it.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

SA are 3 from 3. They are surely going to the next round.

 

[Arachnodouche]

ICC event with the worst wickets ever but also imo a meaaure of how techniques in challenging conditions have fallen away. These are not consistently sub-125 conditions.

 

[Third_Man]

Bangladesh denied 4 leg byes when the Umpire gave an lbw then on review it was over turned. Surely those runs should have counted rather than a dot ball given on review.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Ughhh hridoy getting out was the nail in the coffin. SA got too many after four wickets down cheaply. Lost a good opportunity here. Pretty sure now we will lose against netherlands and that will be curtains for us in the tournament.

That's one of the rules that needs reviewing. Since it was given out on-field, the ball is deemed dead.

Totally agree, the rules are wrong. Simple solution given on commentary, the Umpire waits till the ball is dead to raise his finger.

It was given out so I guess it was dead ball. But overall umpiring has been absolutely poor this game. Two wides that were not given and the ball was clearly sliding down leg when mullah was given out. Hridoy's one was shady too.

 

[Heboric]

Hridoy's one was shady too.

Why was it shady ? It wasnt missing

The umpire perfectly measured it with a magnifying glass that half of the ball was clipping the top of leg stump. Gotta give it to him.

Was just coming to this conclusion myself, like how a linesman waits to put his flag up. But it needs sorting because it’s arguably cost Bangladesh the game.

this may be the one time where u sympathise with facebook bangladeshi fans they were unlucky

Yeah this dumb rule is something many people have raised in the recent past, but obviously the ICC will only wait until it affects a WC Final to change it. And even then they might not - the bat deflection rule hasn’t been changed iirc.

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

The actual best way is to abolish leg byes.

 

[ankitj]

Feels like a replay of India-Pakistan match

 

[cricman]

Selectors left Mehidy at home for Shakib to fraud it up. Can't blame the 4legbyes when you miss out on rank full tosses.

Hopefully they can beat Nepal and Holland and advance.

Bat Hridoy at 3.
