Amar prothom Match Thread. Mods please make this a Sticky.

[MohammedC]

nice one, i think you have missed the player profile link for Javed Omer

[Sohel]

if the match is not rained out, you never really know in this town or any other, the extra moisture calls for a juicy return for mash during the early hours. the spinners will get both bounce and turn by 11:00... i'd say bat first...

[Sohel]

i apologize, that was too low a blow for our captain duckworth...

[Kabir]

I was thinking of the match thread...but as many of you know, I'm a big kufa with match threads.

Good one Zahid. Inshallah you'll maintain a 100% winning record after this match.

And as for the Tigers, just remember that you're better than the Indian team on ANYDAY in ANY VENUE.

[Mohiul]

Good luck zahid. Inshaallah, we gonna win this match

[sadi]

Please change the day. It is still showing Thursday.

[cricket_dorshok]

Go Tiger Go.

Just a thought - Rajowana and BANTigress might be the same person.


Anyway , here's the latest news I could find on the net
http://www.bangladesherkhela.com/def...&iCategoryID=1

I am afraid there's bad news:
Masharafe - UNCERTAIN
Sakib - INJURED
Razzak - SICK

So, Looking at alternatives :
Nazmul / Sharif / Tareq Aziz / Farhad Reza > Mashrafe
Tushar Imran / Rajin Saleh > Sakib
Enamul Haque Jr. > Razzak

DAV AND BCB - DO U HEAR ME ???????????

Habibul Bashar: I firmly believe that we are capable of beating India

TigerCricket.com report

11-May-2007

Habibul Bashar On the importance of tomorrow's match I firmly believe that we are capable of beating India. We had a definite chance yesterday but we could not grab that. Now India took the lead in the series and that is why tomorrow's match is so important for us. We will try hard to come back into the series. Whether his team take inspiration from the last home series against India where Bangladesh came back strongly by beating them in the second match Definitely that is an inspiration. But more motivation comes from yesterday's match where my team put a tremendous fight and we were very close of getting the victory. In 2004 nobody expected a win from us but now everyone expect victory in every match. We are ready to meet their expectations. If we can get everyone fit tomorrow then it is not impossible for us to win this match. On Mashrafee's injury He is doing well and improving all the time. But we have not taken the final decision yet. The phisio will give his final report on the match day morning. But I am optimistic. For me Mashrafee's chance of playing in tomorrow's match is 80%. On the underperforming senior players One or two might be out of sort for the time being. But I do not agree that the senior players could not perform at all. And another thing is I strongly believe that those who are playing for the national team get their chance only because of their performance. Seniority or youth is not an issue there. On the mood of the camp after the first match Definitely positive. We feel that we are in the right track. On the strategy The strategy is simple. We want to play better cricket than the last game. For that we will try to do our basics rightly. Whether he was amazed to see Javed Omar's aggressive innings Not really because I believe that Javed is capable of playing this sort of innings. On the wicket of the first match To be frank I was surprised to see the wicket's behavior in the second half. We saw in the practice match that the ball did not come to the bat in the second innings. But yesterday it was totally different story. I think the wicket was more helpful for batting in India's innings. On Tamim Iqbal's success against India Tamim played a blistering innings against India in the World Cup. That is obviously a special knock. Yesterday's innings was also special because for the first time he played in front of such a big crowd in home. On both occasions he set the tone of the match although he could not carry his innings. But Tamim is more than capable of playing big innings. So I expect some really big innings from him. Javed Omar On his future batting plan after playing an aggressive innings yesterday Obviously I played a good innings yesterday but that does not change anything. And I do not think about long term future. I only concentrate on the next match. Whether this was his best ever ODI innings I played an unbeaten 63 runs knock against England in the mini World Cup at Kenya. For me that was my best innings so far. Yesterday's innings come very next to that. It might be at the top spot should we win yesterday. On the first match I think we were unlucky because most of the time we controlled the match. We missed couple of run out chances and then Dhoni and Karthik played two extraordinary innings that took the game away from us. On the team's batting plan Our planning is not to lose any wicket in the first 10-15 overs. And we would also love to play the whole 50 overs with the specialist six batsmen. On the 'toothless' Indian pacers No comment because all of them are established bowlers in the international arena. Our batsmen played well yesterday that is why they looked ordinary.
