It's far from perfect - we need to pick ourselves up in the fast bowling and fielding departments. Even the spinners need to come good, albeit the test series win in the WI.

Good match. Gosh the Zimbabwean commentators were so damn annoying.

This Zimbabwe team is indeed a good team and will be challenging us more and more in the next matches! We, BD must work harder and stay focus!!!!

I will defin itely say a better team than the WI A team in every department, but BD could not score 300 runs against them.

i guess Zim will get better with each ODI, so BD should not be too complacent for the 3rd ODI. I am hoping and praying that thy carry home the trophy which was donated by their own sponsors.

They came too close chasing. The pitch was probably too dead for the bowlers. Wish they could offer a little better pitches. These type of pitches are very risky for the side that bat first; you really don't know what will be a safe target.

Congrats BD

Well when you set a huge target, it's always likely that the opponent will come hard at you - especially on a pitch as flat as Hilton's chest - and all that matters at the end is that you come out as victors.

A lot of people are also talking about what could have been (had Shak not been dropped, etc), but there's really no point in speculating about what hasn't happened.

Or what is about to happen before it happens.

Very disappointed with runouts, have never seen 4 runouts in one innings. I am sure Siddons must be really mad at them even if they win. I think Tamim has the most runouts, he has to really correct that, and learn to plunge on to the crease like Ash.

Shakib ran himself out. He wasn't even looking at Mushy who said "NO NO"|!!!

He could be blamed for Tamim's run out as well as he was in two minds.

But it happens after a team puts up a huge total & than relaxe a bit when they come to bowl.
anyway good wckt to bat,Zimb bttd really well.
Happy with the win.

Why is everyone complaining about the bowling....? Obviously it was a batting pitch....which is why 4 of our wickets were run outs. Pitch didn't favor the bowlers at all.

If it did not happen did the tree really fall in the forest?

i think a century is due from junaed or rokibul in the next match
