Bangladesh se toh zyada he problem hain mereko, pata nahi kis baat ka ego hain

really they have. they r not a good team . at least they should be happy they qualified . SL and west Indies did get to come to the tournament

Bracewell got motm. Interesting, last 2 matches it was batter, today bowler

yeah I was thinking Ravindra will get . but good choice

Pakistan and Bangladesh are out of the tournament. The hosts are out. That's been very rare in ICC tournaments of late. Bangladesh batted in a timid manner and that I guess didn't help them. They started well with the ball. Taskin bowled Young with a beauty. Nahid edged out KW. NZ seemed to be in trouble. But then Rachin came to party. He had a partnership first with Conway and then Latham. The one with Latham saw them scoring 129 runs for the fourth wicket. Rachin fell trying to finish it early. Latham was out run-out. And then Michael Bracewell and Phillips got together to finish it off. Easy win for the Kiwis and they are through to the semis alongside India. The game between the two will decide who will top the table.

Tomo match is going to be interesting. I think aus will win .

Bangladesh lacked depth in batting. They never scored enough in both the games. Had batting collapses and that never allowed them to score above par in both the games. Their bowling never had enough to play with. 40-50 runs in both the games would have meant they would have been very competitive. Their dependancy on Rahim and Mahmudullah didn't bear many fruits here. Maybe time to look beyond them now.

MArman: "I've been following Bangladesh cricket since I was 10 years old, and now at 31, I can't help but feel disappointed by the lack of significant improvement. Many teams, like Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and the West Indies, have had their ups and downs, but they've won trophies. Bangladesh, on the other hand, has never reached its peak, even for a short period. Despite having a relatively strong cricket infrastructure and more resources than many other nations, the team's progress remains stagnant."
