[MATCH THREAD] Tri Series Game I Zim v BD

[Kriterion_BD]

Perfectly timed floodlight failure. Well done Bangladesh!

what would be a fair DL projection?

I say 150.

[Conant]

Well... never knew Ryan Burl could hit it with such aplomb. Well done, Ryan.

[Kriterion_BD]

BD gave up 20-25 more than they should have.

Should be a good challenge as the required rate will be over 8 an over.

Neither did I. He moved around and positioned himself masterfully for those big hits.

In Shakib's defence I don't think he's ever bowled a poorer over in international cricket. That was horrific to watch. Early prediction: Burl's over will have at least a paragraph in his book. Bets?

[encore]

The pitch is making a huge difference in this match. I did feel 110 was already enough.

Decent bowling by the Zimbabwe bowlers. It will take a couple of very poor overs for BD to stand a chance.

[Mr Twig]

Chatara and Jarvis!

Batting there is a nightmare. I think only Mutombodzi managed to work the ball for singles. Hami and Burl got the big hits in, but they mistimed a lot too.

Surely the conditions have deteriorated badly the pace and bounce everyone has just mistimed it badly, because no way you can try and bat like Mutombodzi now. It's the big hits that will get them.

Shakib chose to field first. He'll have plenty of explaining to do.

Just look at that 5.3 ball from Jarvis to Mahmudullah. Crazy pitch!

Its hard to tell who has the more awkward looking bowling action between Chatara and Madziva.

Never knew why jabro likes Madziva so much.
