Match Thread: ICC WT20 1st Round: Bangladesh vs Netherlands, March 9th, 2016, Dharamsala(9:30 GMT, 3:30PM BDT, 4:30AM EST)

Our bowling was garbage. Except Taskin. Everyone else was garbage, even those who ended up somehow with good figures, the short length balls they were bowling deserved to go for much more.

As for our batting, it was all garbage too. Except Tamim, and that sweet 6 from Sunny, which probably won us the game.

In summary: Taskin and Tamim save an otherwise garbage Bangladesh team.

In T20 you need an Ashraful type who has gifted Hand-Eye coordination.

Our Batsmen are very 1 dimensional, you bowl a certain length and they easily get bogged down

Exactly. So many blind haters in this forum.

Nasir and mushi not up to mark not good enough at this level

but but but, he gave away runs!

Some people probably don't understand that even a good ball can go to the boundary

This is nederlands... India needed 19 of 12 balls, Dhoni scored those in 5... Guess the bowler...lol..

As i said, luck for him (with this crappy full tosses and half trackers) is bound to run out...

they maybe not upto the mark but who exactly is sitting on the side to replace them? reality is who ever it is will make the same or less contribution atm

[Rana Melb]

Al amin repetitively bowl bad in the death overs. Need to rethink

[Shubho]

We bowled too many spinners. And our batting was terrible.

Taskin, Tamim and Mash showed up to the game. The others were absent.

[rezwansyed]

I think that17th over by Mashrafe won us today's match....just 3 runs and the crucial wicket...Great great bowling.

[tiger_army]

bowlers did excellent jon, everyone played their part, it was very tricky situation and condition. Dutch had a very good start.. Our bowlers came back and won the game.. no denial.

He did bowl well today regardless

not this just game, he's just not a death bowler, he should be in the team, but Hider or mustafiz needs to come in for sunny, we dont need sunny

[Vepu]

Haters gonna hate. Only had one day to adjust to high altitude place with lot less temperature from Dhaka. Dont forget Netherlands have been practising here for last 10 days and played 2 practice matches. I say job well done

First they need to change the keeper. mushi is not even near where wicket keeper should be.

AA sucks at death? Few months ago everyone in the forum considered him our best death over bowler, make up your minds!

Not everyone.

[godzilla]

is fiz going to be ready for next match?

[simon]

Once Mustafiz comes AA wont have to bowl at death.
meanwhile replace Sunny with Hider.

But the main thing is that u cant be a good T20 team with SS,Mushy,Sakib and our number 7 be it Nasir or Nurul just not looking good.

[Roey Haque]

I see a debate is brewing on Al Amin's death over performance. Short answer is: it's still to be decided. If you look at the 19th over, the first 3 deliveries were bad, but the last three deliveries were gems! Yeah, there will be many bowlers in the world who will not bowl those first three deliveries, but those same guys do not have the ability to bowl the last three deliveries either. So just persist with him. Taskin had his back today. One day Taskin will err, and Al Amin will have his back.

Another point is, the bowling as a whole was garbage (except Taskin). Even Shakib, Sunny and Mash who look good on match stat sheet bowled a bunch of horse crap. You will know this if you had watched the match. So unfair to single out Al Amin.

[Fazal]

This hate against Al Amin is ridiculous. He is our most consistent wicket taker in recent time.

[MHRAM]

once again, why the rant? Our boys had 2 DAYS, yes 2 DAYS to acclimatize to a 5000ft area and knowing a whole lot of you struggle to sprint 100m a day i am not entirely suprised

I will take this win, even with the luck going against us
