Quite a bit of turn on a sluggish Dhaka pitch in game 1. Could be another game full of top order collapses...
The first game proved a paradox about T20 cricket. 2 big overs (or a single Burl-esque over) can change the course of a game, so one would think a Fiji ought to be able to upset an Australia from time to time. Yet, thats most likely not the case.
Its pretty clear that T20 is all about counterattacking whereas ODIs and Tests allow for gradual absorption of pressure.

On a wicket where the bowl is turning and hitting the spinners is becoming increasingly difficult, Hammy has bowled just 1 over of Burl so far. Chatara gets hit for 4 sixes.
I can't wait for Hamilton to retire and for Zimbabwe to have a new captain, anyone but Hamilton.

Probably not a single there. Hami sold down the river

Trigger-happy umpires. 3 lbws given for us when not out.
At least Madziva is going down swinging.

More poor bowling changes.

Zimbabwe could have won both games if not for Mazakadza's captaincy. Last game at 60/6 he allowed Bangladesh to get away with it, he made poor bowling changes
Today the target should have been around 170 if not for those 7 sixes, not giving Burl enough overs and preferring the pacers cost them dearly.

So you pick a player as a batting all rounder. He bowls an over and goes for 4. You then decide not to bowl him again, despite the other bowler similar in style also only goes for 4 an over.
Definitely must not have been the captain making such decisions.
