*Official* Asia Cup 2018 in UAE

[S.Kennedy]

Asia Cup is not on Sky Sports Cricket's listings. Who the **** is showing it in UK then? Guess one of the Indian or Pakistani channels will show the IndvPak match - but what about the other matches?

They were advertising it as appearing on hotspot which you can apparently get on netflicks or amazon or some bollocks.

Its a joke having a team like Hong Kung play in this tournament over the other Asian affiliates.

Lol terrible post.

This is quite inconceivable; large-scale match fixing is the only possible explanation.


If it is investigated, i wouldn't be speechless with surprise to learn that there was no qualifying tournament at all.
It is quite easy to create the illusion that games, in which absolutely no one is interested, actually took place by emitting fake posts on twitter, facebook, CricketWeb etc.

They are practicing cobra dance more than the cricket

1) Tamim
2) Liton
3) Mominul
4) Mushfiq
5) Shakib
6) Mahmudullah
7) Mosaddek
8) Miraz
9) Mashrafe
10) Abu Hider
11) Fizz

About time Mominul gets decent enough chances @ top order in odis.

Got excited about Mominul for a sec before I realised this isn't Test cricket

Try Star TV's digital platform Hotstar.

Could the Knock Knock Neighbour ad for the tournament be any more cringeworthy?

Not sure why Mithun is in the starting XI

 

[Daemon]

Fun fact, this isn't HK's first time in the Asia Cup. Played 4 games previously.

 

[weldone]

Aponso, Lakmal, Malinga - that's a lol-worthy tail

All Bangladesh needs to do is to get the first 7 wickets with 20 or 25 runs to go

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

We are in death group. Unlucky imo

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

The pitch looks ultra dry

 

[Daemon]

Malinga's tummy is a sight to behold. He has lost some weight though, good to see.

 

[Daemon]

haha gun comeback. **** off shakib.

 

[Starfighter]

2/2 fantastic start by Bang lol.

 

[Daemon]

2/2 fantastic start by Bang lol.

Tamim doesn't look like he'll return so effectively 2/3.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Lol wth is going on

Bagnadlesh team selection often flies in the face of conventional wisdom. The team you selected is the team that most reasonable people would pick but Bangladesh would rather fill the side with multiple wicket keepers and still have Mushfiq keep the wickets, use a top order batsman like Mosaddek at 7, turn a top order batsman into a 'finisher'.

Of course Mithun is batting well now which places the scrutiny on Liton Das
