Match Thread: Only T20I - Bangladesh v West Indies, SBNCS Dhaka, Dec 10 2012, (18:00 local | 12:00 GMT)

[Jadukor]

brilliant effort my foot... with the kind of start we had with 9 wkts in hand we should have gone harder or got all out trying. This was an absolute waste of a brilliant start given by Tamim and Anamul

[kalpurush]

Mushy
Rubel
Mullah

Three idiots did it in style!

[BlindSupporterofBD]

why didnt we keep a same type of pitch for t2. why is it a batting friendly pitch despite they have few biggest hitter of the world? why why?

[betaar]

Shamim just confirmed the record that BD just achieved, losing with 9 wickets on hand in the history of T20.

[shuziburo]

BD made a world record today by losing even after losing only 1 wicket.

exactly
when there are good batsmen waiting to get their fair shot. the two just got stuck in the doldrums.
they could have run harder, put the bad balls away.
let's see what sham and mush pin out as positives.

[Hawk-Eye]

Very strange batting! Need to improve their fitness level. Ekta dour dilei jibba ber hoye jai. Ero beshi beshi biriyani khao er cigarette fuko.

Exactly.. Selfish game at its best

[cricheart]

Nothing else but Mushy's bowling combo cost this one for us today.

[kalpurush]

Ya! Stupid Mushy!!

Knowing Rubel how crap he is in the death overs, you still gave him the ball!!!

Shame on you.

[betaar]

Mushy and Rubel should be made to shave each other head in shame.....add Tamim and Riyadh in it as well.

Mushy costed us the match.

He gave Rubel to bowl the last over
He missed two catches
He send Mullah second down - Musjy or Zia shou;ld have come to bat that time

[KnightBD]

an opportunity well missed... still delirious on the ODI wins? be professional, tigers!

[22Yards]

Running between the wickets suffered due to tamim. he gets tired mighty early.

[22Yards]

That is odd, the single T20 has a trophy ?

[Tiger-ess]

Did Shamim just refer to BPL as the big bash??

[shuziburo]

I still cannot believe that they did not go for it despite having 9 wickets! I would be happier with 160 all out, if they tried. This was unacceptable.

[meazz1]

Brainless batting at it's best.
BD team never ceases to amaze and amuse us.

I was just pulling my hair out, seeing Zia finishing his spell good, worring Mushy will do the same mistake giving the bowl to Rubel (Mash alter) at end innings, where Zia would 've much better choice for late-over bowling with his varied-length slow medium bowling.

[ialbd]

I personally moved past the 'shommanjonok porajoy' long time back for which this feels as bad...

missed the first 14 overs of BD's batting and from what I understand that failing to convert those 1s to 2s and dispatching the full-toss deliveries cost us the match.

But this score (179/1) tells one thing though, in t20 this is the best effort from our top order ... which in turn isnt enough to overcome the best (or close to best) of the t20 world champions.

This result just reminds me of that Pollard-Nasir clip from the 5th ODI (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tPKdf7aKZHs) .... which sums up the difference between BD & WI in t20....

[yaseer]

I would not call it a selfish game. It was just simple lack of ability to power hitting.
We need more stronger and fitter player to be successful in T20 format.

Mushy did another mistake by continue to bowling Razzak - Mushy should have bowl Mominul one over in the middle to see if he clicks or not.

[Max100]

we lost because

1. gayles bowling
2. samuels batting
3. mushys dropped catch and bad decision
4. rubel forget to bring his brain in the field
5. riads selfishness or may be lack of capability

true, very true. fitness kharap. so take a suicidal run and let somone else carry the flag rather than you be a pall bearer which you knew would happen.
