Ok, another record - most runs with maximum lives in a tour.

I am not mad at Rubel... people get hit during death overs... and Samuels is a ferocious hitter batting on a century. He should not have been bowling at that point with so many spinners on hand

Same team plays. Rubel didn't bowl badly.

same here. We shouldnt make Rubel another Shahadat. He really isnt the one to be blamed for this.

Journos/reporters will confront Mushy on his decision to bowl Rubel and he'll say sth like 'pitch e dew chhilo, bhablam Rubel er ball skid kore upore uthey nichey hoye swing kore stump uray dibe'. But he needs to know that he was wrong.

Perhaps Samuels was just waiting for Mushy to make this mistake. To be fair if Rubel's over never came he would have gone after Mash, but atleast that would have built an extra pressure on him...

He won't learn from this, asia cup is proof of that

How many times we seen same over and over again, spinner doing really well at the end, and what captain does is bring the fast bowler to bowl making easier for opposition to win that match. When These player will learn.

[Hasan2k8]

Came back from work, saw the last bit of the match BD had bit of a chance to win, ball was turning should have kept spinners on! Mushy!!! What an idiotic mistake that was buddy bringing Rubel on instead of a spinner. Gazi has been a fantastic find for BD, has done great, he still had an over left!

Surprisingly none of our players learn actually. Tamim-Shakib-Mushy- Nasir-Mash-Razzak-Riyad all makes the same mistake over and over again and still doesn't learn. I really don't know how their thought process works. Why they are so reluctant to learn??? Why why why .. bhabte bhabtei mejajta kharap hoye jachhe

I say drop Naeem bring in Ziaur Rahman to bat down the order and bowl few overs upfront maybe. move Mahmudullah or Rahim to #3 spot, drop Rubel bring in Sunny another spinner for the next match.

Crossing fingers... hope Mushi wins the toss next time around....

too many changes with a team that won the first 2 games will only demoralize players. the only change that can be done on Rubel. but on another day, he might flourish... so i expect the team combination to be unchanged in the next game.

[KaaL-PurusH]

team will be same as this match. only shafiul is in squad who can replace rubel and that doesnt seem good move. I hope he will come back strong. Nasir, Tamim & Naeem has to perform to win us 4th game along with todays performer.

BTW, Rubel shouldnt be blamed alone for today. It was a bad performance from him today but people may have forgotten that Samuel is capable of what he has done today. He smashed malinga in similar fashion in t20 wc. i would recommend everyone to see that before making any comment about rubel.

I want to see more new gens in next match, wont mind resting even Tamim. One win from next two matches will seal the series, so I guess selectors yet got chances left to suffle up players here.

[NoName]

Just checked the score, batting was just terrible. Really Mash 0 of 11 balls? He's suppose to be one of our best death over sloggers what the hell happened?

There are lot more options....Zia if you want a few overs and batting, Sunny if you want an additional spinner and little more batting than Rubel...even Shafiul I think is a better option than Rubel. Rubel isn't match fit I guess, he wasn't doing well in NCL also...let him get in rhythm first....his pace has dropped and line is bhoyaboho at this moment...

[wktkeeper]

nayeem is not for ODI. for test he is fine. the way he got out today was really shocking. at this stage if you do not know how to play a spinner , its a shame.
