Don't think that Bashar is going to come at no. 3. Probably it should be like -

Rajin
Shariar
Aftab
Asraful
Bashar
Kapali
Pilot
Rafiq
Murtuza
Razzak
Russel

Order may change if we bat second to chase a scroe.

[Sam]

Yes sar2005, I agree that our Captain will try to use the stroke players during the first 20 overs of power play .

REPLY,CARTE BLANCHE.I know you are viewing all these.

Dear Shafin, please calm down. Don't take it personally. Maybe CB have started the structured match thread and from now on it would be the style. I personally agree if CB provided an explanation while opening this thread it would be better. Anyway you are a very valuable member of BC and you should also act responsibly. We are all waiting for a big game and we don't want any sort of havoc within ourselves. Please calm down man.

[Miraz]

Shafin, please don't act silly. Whats the use if you get banned. Moderators are doing a great job to keep this site alive and definitely this is the last thing expected from any member. You should also talk personally with mods.

[cricman]

Shafin,
It's just a Match Thread take it easy. Carte said that he'd make a standard match thread format after the move to VB, since the old XMB format type match thread wasn't compatable. This is the standard type that can be used for the rest of the series and Other Match Threads

But to be honest you Shafin, you butchered the original one you made just 1 line?. I think you wanted to make it so you can add that one to your sig. It's not a big deal don't take it personally. What CB did is not an insult so just turn the page on this one.

[sar2005]

Dear friend Shafin, I see your point and personally I would agree with you that a PM would have been a better option to start a new one here. But don't take it personally. We all have noticed your thread and I think BC tried to make a new standard format for match thread which is it and looks good. Take it easy and let's prepare for a good match.

CB in ric, since we have quite a lot of comments on Shafin's match thread, would it be possible to merge his one with this? It would mean that we just don't have locket his thread as well. We would appreciate your thoughts on it.

Cheers!!

Thanks dear. Now mods can you please delete the earlier posts and can we take a fresh start??

[irteja]

mod delete my post please...it is useless now

[sar2005]

So, how would be the pitch? I have to repeat my previous question.
I don't think that we have a ground like WNDRS where around 450 is possible in an ODI.
