Netherlands team is more stronger than Ireland. They even have Van Der Merwe

Haha funny,we wont beat them we will crush them and send them on their boat back to holland

[MHRAM]

This is a near do or die match.

Netherlands are good enough to beat Ireland and Oman and should they win today they will win the next two matches as well so that disqualifies us.

Also there is an issue with the weather. Dharmasala better have good drainage

Can we we some Shakala Masala in Dharmashala?

Most likely not.IPL is his main concern not bangladesh

[MHRAM]

Short boundaries meaning that we should go with a four man pace battery

[BD_TigerZ]

Should be a close match need to take the half chances and bat well the pitched are real flat.

Sunny. These deadweights will be the reason for our downfall. All the spinners in our domestic circuit and we had to pick someone that throws pies.

[Roey Haque]

Fun fact: While Dharmasala's HPCA (Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association) is the highest international venue in the world at 4780 ft, it is not the highest cricket ground in the world.

That honor goes to the Chail Cricket Ground,also in Himachal Pradesh, which is at 7380 ft!

Sunny is a very good ODI bowlr because he can keep it very tight. Exceptional accuracy, hardly bowls short like Shakib and Razzak. But accurate bowled like sunny and herath don't do much in this format.

Successful bowlers include narine and Ashwin

[Roey Haque]

^But Sunny does not compare to the great Abdur Razzak.

Also, hasn't Nas elevated his skills to match that of a bowl first spinner? All rounders help to balance the team. After Shakib, Nas has strong case to be a genuine all rounder.

[BanglaNAus]

Chillax peeps

Turn on your tellie.Grab a coffee.Watch Bangladesh completely crush and embarrass the associates

[RazabQ]

This match is a test of our progress. Everything is stacked against us. An opponent with a bunch of mercenary players (Australian D team). No conditioning to high altitude. Small ground and flat pitch which caters to a power game (not our forte). And no Fizz. But IA we will come through.

[brockley]

And Saffies too.
More Saffies than Aussies.

It creates imbalance. ICC is a joke.

[brockley]

Well Tom Cooper got dropped by his state team,averaged 17 this year.State competition is tough if you are not on top of your game.
But got a 50 the other day so seems to be back in form.
Ben Cooper and Tim Vanderguten can't get a game for their state teams.But have performed well for the Dutch.They are both trying 2 qualify for England as far as I know.

lol playing for holland with the intention of qualifying for England, say a lot about le orange team, they might beat us and qualify for the super 10, in the super 10 they might beat another test nation. but so what?, because of these players Ned will always be Ned, no hope, I would rather see teams like nepal, Papua new genie in the WC rather than Mercenary teams like Scotland and Ned

[brockley]

UAE,Oman,USA,Dutch,Canada,NZ,England lots of expats.Scotland have 3/4 as ireland does.

[Roni_uk]

I am having a bad feeling about this match and I am usually right .... Hope I am wrong... Keep calm and good luck Bnagladesh
