No, unfortunately not yet. We may not get any info within the next few hours. But you never know, we just might get it anytime. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Not very convincing but I will take it. Looks like K Mashud saved the game for us as he does or try to do this job pretty often. I would have been lot more happier if our Opening stand had a strong start. Anyway hopefully in real matches our opening batsmen will give us a solid start and NOT put us in back foot from get go.

Ash needs to be consistent. Golla needs to do better than 11.

200SX · #12 July 12, 2004, 09:11 AM

nice to c tht tigers win, but they shud do more better, batting looks confident for them, but im still in doubt abt bowling... i don kno wat others thnk...?

Basri · #13 July 12, 2004, 09:13 AM

Great. We have won chasing 248 runs. It's a good sign. GO TIGERS GO.

Basri · #14 July 12, 2004, 09:16 AM

Again Mashud and Rafiq saved the game. It seems Alok is expecting a place.

rassel · #15 July 12, 2004, 09:17 AM

is all good! we won

200SX · #16 July 12, 2004, 09:21 AM

cacha shows poor performence again, 54/2.....

PoorFan · #17 July 12, 2004, 09:37 AM

Nice to see that we won.
Ashraful made only 3, just after a good score( again ).

Carte Blanche · #18 July 12, 2004, 10:07 AM

Wasn't that convincing a win. But then again we were chasing a reasonably big target. Our chasing skills are horrible. Looks like a late order rescue effort to me. Pilot again the man. I will still take heart from the fact that we won a game chasing 250. Good luck against HK.

Zobair · #19 July 12, 2004, 10:14 AM

I wish we had one more practice match before the tourny starts. Anyways, this was a win nonetheless. Whatmore will make sure lessons are learnt from this match as well.

Bring HK on!

200SX · #20 July 12, 2004, 10:17 AM

i thnk bd shud take the match against hong kong as a practice match, which will b very helpful for the other match......

Beamer · #21 July 12, 2004, 10:20 AM

Yes, chasing was the key, regardless of the opposition. Happy about the fact that we won the toss and elected to field. Has Bashar lost any tosses? Its remarkable, his luck with winning the toss! hope it continues. For me, the key was Kapalis 47. He is one of our best one day batsman. It will also fire up faisal. Young razzak had excellent figures. I think he will play in this tournament. Omar
is a question mark. But then again, Kapali or Rana can open. What can I say about Pilot. It will be hard to replace him when that day comes.

Zobair · #22 July 12, 2004, 10:21 AM

Lets not get overconfident

We should take HK seriously and aim to crush them, and set ourselves a standard for the rest of the tournament. Besides we shouldn't expect HK to lie down and roll over.

Having these two wins under our belt will certainly boost our confidence going in to the tournament. These are not convincing wins but at the end of the day you can't complain because you have to win these matches be it by one run or wicket. The last thing you want to do is lose to an understrength sri lankan side before facing Hong Kong. So I'm glad these matches are succesfully over.

200SX · #24 July 12, 2004, 10:25 AM

pompus, ur say is rite here, coz bangladesh always used to b an unpredictable team, but this time they r the real tiger........still shavdhaner mair nai...

Navarene · #25 July 12, 2004, 10:44 AM

Our wayward bowling needs to be more focused. Happy to see Kapali into runs. Belim proves again that he is not fit for one day standard. A win by chasing a respectable target is a very good sign. Thank to our batsmen for their positive approach.

Good luck tigers from the bottom of my heart
