*Official* Bangladesh in Zimbabwe 2022

[Aritro]

Great comeback from Zimbabwe, this is a proper game now.

I'm fairly glad they'll have a score to chase before the Asia Cup, but it's going to be annoying if they lose.

 

[Aritro]

Oh dear, Liton gone. Two Zimbabwe bowlers I've never heard of taking the new ball. I expect the worst.

 

[Aritro]

That was not an encouraging debut from Parvez Hossain Emon. Looked anxious to get going, kept snatching at the ball instead of waiting for it.

 

[_Ed_]

Seems to be going downhill fast for Bangladesh.

 

[Aritro]

I've turned it off. Congratulations Zimbabwe, they completely turned the game around from a terrible position and outplayed us in all departments.

We've hit one 6 in a T20 innings FMD

South Africa seems to know to rack up totals without necessarily smacking every other delivery out of the ground for 6. So it might not necessarily be the end of the world

"I am very disappointed, I didn't expect to lose to Zimbabwe," Mahmud said in Harare on Wednesday (August 3). "We are a better team than them. I would call it a disgrace. I won't give any excuses. We should have won the T20I series.

So much class oozing out of that statement.

Mf played for one of the worst test sides in history and has the gall to call a side that outplayed them inferior and the result a disgrace

Good point. And he is actually one of the worst players in history with minimum ten tests. An allrounder with batting average of 12 and bowling average of 64.

Afif and Mossadek just feel like clones of Mahmdullah in their ODI lineup. Sure it helps when Shakib can be the fifth bowler and a number three batsman but surely there are other alternatives that offer a better sixth bowling option despite being poorer with the bat for that number seven position? One I can think of is Saifuddin but a spinner makes more sense with the world cup being in India next year

Bangladesh cruising at a good rate

Who said the world is not for the 'Innocent'.

Innocent playing the knock of his life and giving good support to the experienced and injured Raza.

 

[ataraxia]

Losing after setting a total just two wickets down is very Bangladesh

 

[Aritro]

Loving seeing another decent crowd at Harare for this one. Wonderful stuff.

And how lucky they are to be watching this seam bowling masterclass from Hasan Mahmud. An artist.

 

[Aritro]

I don't know what's happened to Shoriful's pace but I want him to get it back ASAP. He's been a military medium pace since he came back from injury, and it makes him a pretty innocuous bowler.

 

[Aritro]

This singing, dancing, utterly boisterous Zimbabwean crowd almost make me want to support them instead.

 

[Prince EWS]

Regis has always been Zimbabwe's best players of spin but vulnerable against swing and seam, so it's insane how many times someone has decided he should be an opener. I don't know what the rationale is other than "keeper with compact technique".

 

[CricAddict]

Sikander Raza. What a player. Absolutely deserves to be in that Zimbabwe ATG ODI team. Has played for the team all these years through their tough times and reaping benefits now with a golden run of form with both bat and ball.
