***Official*** New Zealand in Bangladesh

[sportychic33]

another good start by New Zealand . .. 45/4

Ok yep... Another one for Bangladesh? The fragility is a worrying sign from NZ.

"Last 5 overs: 3 runs, 3 wickets"

Says it all really. Credit to Bangladesh, but this is extraordinarily bad stuff from NZ. I'm turning the ****ing thing off.

I don't think NZ want to have the distinction of being the first team to lose a ODI series to BD. I still think they can get to 250 as they bat right down to number 10. The chances of BD pulling of another decent batting performance is very slim. They get their batting right once every 2 years or so.

 

[_Ed_]

I'm not convinced they'll need a decent batting performance.

 

[Craig]

If they lose this, then what ever their match payments is or how much they get per year, they do not deserve.

Spineless ****ing arseholes. You want us to support you? Well try playing some ****ing cricket shots, you ****ing ****s.

Correction Bangladesh already defeated Zimbabwe in Odi series. New Zealand will be 2nd if it looses...

Ireland and Kenya have also lost ODI series to Bangladesh.

I think Fishyguy was just talking about the top 8 though.

Impressive. 10/10.

One Day Internationals
Daniel Flynn - 89 runs @ 14.83
Grant Elliott - 103 runs @ 51.50; 9 wickets @ 8.88 (3.28)

New Zealand Domestic One Day Cricket
Daniel Flynn - 853 runs @ 31.59; 6 wickets @ 46.50 (5.93)
Grant Elliott - 645 runs @ 49.61; 35 wickets @ 24.45 (4.95)

Why!?!?

I'm sure he'll hit a ton and win New Zealand the game now I've posted this, but the selection just makes no sense AFAIC.

This is absolutely dire from the Kiwi's. Looks like Oram needs to perform another rescue act.

 

[duffer]

Chuffed for Rasel. Hopefully the spinners can really put the squeeze on but think there's a big fightback about to happen by the lower order.

 

[Somerset]

I haven't watched any of the game because the second quarter final in the Air New Zealand Cup's been on this afternoon - but by the looks of it I wouldn't have wanted to anyway. Unbelievable. Agree with Craig regarding the player payments.

 

[Natman20]

Bout time they accelerated dont ya think?

 

[Natman20]

It looks as if it will be another bad score. Maybe it could be Bangladesh's time to repeat what Ryder and McCullum did to England earlier this year (10 wicket win chasing 166 or so).

 

[~DanVettoriFan~]

*sigh*

Ahwell atleast we've done pretty good from being 45 for 5 to be 170 odd for 9 atm!

Man if I were the coach I would make them find their own way back to the hotel...

 

[Natman20]

It should be Oram v Bangladesh not NZ . Well its semi competitive. Possible to win maybe ....

 

[stumpski]

Oram to the rescue yet again ...

I have a feeling 200 will be enough this time though.

25 off the last over, how important will that be later ...?

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

Oram to the rescue again!
How dire has our batting been?
