just finished watching the Asia Cup highlights and now I remember why we lost. No Tamim, No Shak, No Riyad, No Mash and Mushy was injured and wasnt keeping wickets. The team had Zia, Kayes, Raj, Gazi..... what a nightmare of a squad. Just Shak-Tam-Riyad combo would kill Afghanistan today

Not Kayes. Shamsur opened the innings with Anamul.

yeah sure!!

gonna drive up to canberra in 30mins. Really excited!! Heard lot of buses are leaving from sydney to canberra with the bangladesh flag covered over the bus.

Navarene · #**179** February 17, 2015, 05:09 PM

The big difference between Bangladesh and Afghanistan would be the misfield and catch misses and of course this will cause defeat for the later one

I am not tensed at all! We are going to demolish Afghans by a big margin...mark my word folks!

Only two pacers and two spinners? bad move

overconfident holey problem hobe.

According to this article, 10 players confirmed, 11th is between Taskin and Taijul, will depend on the conditions.

http://bd.thedailystar.net/its-battle-time-65372

Manuka Oval: Out of the 48 wickets taken by bowlers at this ground, 42 have gone to the fast bowlers, giving a clear indication of the pacer-friendly nature of the pitch.

Given that, why not go with 4 pacers !?

hoodlum · #**184** February 17, 2015, 05:25 PM

why play both mominul and anamul at the expense of taijul/taskin? ridiculous.

interesting squad. so the batting will look something like this --

1.Tamim
2.Anamul
3.Soumya
4.Mominul
5.Riyad
6.Mushy
7.Shakib
8.Shabbir
9. Mashrafi

we should score at least 250 with such a strong line up

Anamul, Soumya, Mominul... putting an out of form, a newbie and an unproven performer for the most critical batting slots next to each other..... I wonder where they get the brains from

When you are 3 down before you know it, it doesnt matter how good of a middle order lineup you have... it stalls the entire innings

Eshen · #**187** February 17, 2015, 05:35 PM

If they are planning to go with eight batsman, they should consider benching Anam and taking Nasir in. We need more bowling options.

Antora · #**188** February 17, 2015, 05:36 PM

Going to have my heart in my mouth the whole game....oh also, those going to the Brisbane game like myself, you may or may not know that a cyclone is likely to hit the state....lel....

If you are a true professional, and a test playing nation, your B team should also be able to beat an associate.

The bottom line is, there could not be any excuse for us losing against AFG in Asia Cup, and there cannot be any excuse, God forbid, if we lose against them tomorrow.

All the best BD.

NoName · #**190** February 17, 2015, 05:50 PM

Why are they still undecided over Taskin?

I think Shakib, Shabbir and Riyad can easily fill our spin quota

This will be the line-up:

Riyad
Shakib
Mushfiq
Soumya
Sabbir
Mash
Rubel
Taskin

epitaph · #**192** February 17, 2015, 05:54 PM

So, we're planning on starting only 4 full-time bowlers? Odd.

Mas_UK25 · #**193** February 17, 2015, 05:57 PM

I am happy for the stride the Afghans made in cricket. Good for them. But, in this match, I sincerely want Bangladesh to thump them hard and put them in their place (just like the match in the last World T20). Been hearing, allot cocky, arrogant statements from the opposition fans. Nd, I think they are getting bit too carried way.

Joy Bangla! Banglar Joy!!

Idiots are thinking about picking just 2 specialist seamers? Better pick the Flash!

Nadim · #**196** February 17, 2015, 06:01 PM

Tried to sleep for a bit. But no luck. Now gonna Try to study for a bit...lets see if that works...if not then gonna end up watching all the winning highlights

Mas_UK25 · #**197** February 17, 2015, 06:02 PM

My playing XI would be:

Tamim
Soumya
Mahmudullah
Shakib
Nasir
Mushy
Shabbir
Mash
Alamin
Rubel/Sunny/Taijul
Taskin

Yes, possible 4 seamer's... depending on the pitch, if it's going to be flat with little help for the spinners then maybe Taijul/Sunny another SLA. But, I'd go with 4 seamer's

Moh899 · #**198** February 17, 2015, 06:02 PM

The time is here! it has come!!! hell yahzzzz!! cmon cmon cmon!!! we're ready to swim with the sharks...we've been thrown in the deep end before, and guess what, we survived..we're waiting for our foes right here!!! and this tiny winy afghan boo boo is nothing compared to what we've dealt with with in the past!
