Asian Games Cricket 2014

[cRow]

Bad start as usual..

[MarufH]

3/2. After almost 3 overs. Good bye gold. I'm gonna get some sleep. Good night die hard fans.

The game is stopped due to rain. So, if this match can't start again, will we see another coin toss to decide winner ?

and this is what happened

5.30 PM The ground will not be playable. Match Referee Venkatapathi Raju has taken the two captains out to toss for the result. Raju tossed. Lahiru Thirimanne called. "Tails". Tails it was. Sri Lanka are through to the Asian Games final where they play Afghanistan for gold.

Cricket should be banned from sh**y games like this. Might as well decide the gold on toss.

[Habib]

A fitting end to this farce.

[MHRAM]

That's the problem with cricket. A match is decided on a coin toss

In any case, it was a good holiday.... back to back for some ppl

[5tonne]

What a joke. All those preparation, anticipation went down to drain in a coin toss. Wonder what would happen if it was India instead of us.

[Donal C]

A coin toss being used is an absolute farce and makes a mockery of the whole tournament.

2014 and this stuff still happens.

Unbelievable

[Mandela]

Haha Bangladesh send a very strong team to win gold and this happens?

I guess it's fair enough SL go through considering Bangladesh were struggling and would most likely have lost on DL methode if SL had 20 runs to chase from 5 overs.

[ahnaf]

atleast we didn't lose to SL A team.

[MohammedShamim]

Had a bad feeling something bad was going to happen lol. It came done to coin toss doesn't matter most likely would have lost anyways.

Who knows it may happen. Wait and see the Afgans winning it on the toss.

Let me congratulate the winner (whoever that may be).

Really 2014 can't get any worse; be it performance, luck, team spirit or anything. 2003 is noway near if you compare the teams and experience at this level.

[simon]

ya, it has been such a kufa year, I really think if luck was on our favor we would have won 2/3 ODIs this year, yes you need some luck too.

[mufi_02]

hahahaha..ajkal toss theke match o hari amra. we won most of the tosses in WI and made poor bowling first decisions. now we lost the toss that really mattered. cant wait for 2014 to be over!!

[BD Tigers]

what a luck!!! So who gets to decide that who calls at the toss? But either way no luck this year!!! Hope they at least get a medal and beat Hong Kong In sha Allah.

Hope we don't have to go through this type of toss saga against HK. Otherwise we have to come home without a medal

[godzilla]

coin toss, WOW
leave it out to probability.

[NoName]

1) Haha at coin toss
2) We will be placed beneath Afg
3) Revenge match against HK

[meazz1]

We need a coin that can do 'head we win tail you lose" !

[RazabQ]

If we didn't have bad luck we'd have no luck! Seriously??? I was actually impressed at the maturity TiK and Shabbir were showing in building a platform which might have let us target 80-90 runs in the last 9 overs and go for a competitive score.

[Donal C]

8/0 after 1 over.

Wonder what odds the bookies are giving on HK to pull off two in a row??
