Was there any Zidane-type headbutt?

I read somewhere that Amir is Punjabi

[DinRaat.]

Funny how a batsman who cannot face pace, is trying to show balls, against one of the best fast bowlers in the world.

Mosaddek should release his anger in the nets, not on the bowlers.

[DinRaat.]

We all know how this is going to end. Khulna is going to lose and end up like the eternal underdogs, Rangpur will win, due to big names they have and their more marketable nature. Khulna will be eliminated and the higher ups will be pleased.

Comilla will lose to Dhaka, since everyone wants a Dhaka final as that will generate the most revenue. Comilla will get knocked out by Rangpur, once again this is pretty obvious since, they(comilla) are a relatively mediocre team.

The public are once again spoon fed the same garbage over and over again, a classic Mashrafe V Shakib final that the organisers will gain lots of money out of and univocally this BPL will be hailed "a success" . The game(especially these leagues) are just a cheap mindless cash grab.

[DinRaat.]

Seems like I was right.

[MHRAM]

Riad has other ideas

16 from 4!!

Greedy Mullah, gone.

[Rinathq]

needless.. but i guess thats what the plan was..

[DinRaat.]

That Apu, celebration is like those indian/bangladeshi snake movies. Creepy ASF.

[DinRaat.]

Anyway, methinks Ariful will score below 10.

[DinRaat.]

[Jadukor]

The timing for us here in this part of the globe sucks for the first match

Congrats Riders! My 1st team now! *obviously*

Gayle storm to hot handle. RR or Cov winning this. I won’t be unhappy

[Rifat]

This Mohammad Mithun guy: I think he can be very handy for Bangladesh in ODI format at #3. In T20I he may struggle as he takes time to get going against more potent bowling attacks.

[Mas_UK25]

Didn’t watch full game only bit of first 6overs of KT innings.

Kamal is there. No chance of gifting anything.

Someone said Commila has a mediocre side. Really? Just really? You think a side with: Tamim, Butler, Dwayn Bravo, Samuels, Hasan Ali, S Malik. Is mediocre? Hasan Ali number one ODI bowler, S Malik vastly experienced, Tamim D Bravo too, Butler is a big player dangerman, Samuels won two T20 wc scoring the match winning innings. Cov is better than DD man to man. IMO.

DD has retired Afridi, who is a danger lot of times throughout his career 0(1) has been his fav innings. KP dangerman, but hit or miss especially with the Cov bowling KP wont have it freely. Lewis is very good, Amir is good but not great at t20. Delport, The other Englishman denly are good but not class.

Samuels (been there done that at t20 finals big match player), Butler, S Malik, Hasan Ali (number one ODI bowler), D bravo (most wicket taker in t20history and vastly experienced)

V

Lewis (dangerous), Afridi (retired, on his day deadly), Kp (like afridi, on his day), Amir, Denly/delport/Archer


I’d take Cov. Foreigners.

[Mas_UK25]

Hasan Ali strikes Maruf out. Where is everyone? Yo

[Mas_UK25]

Rooting for Comilla. Come on... make a COV v RR final.

Its all about money. Mashrafe alone would lead to,crowds flowing into the stadium. A match between Dhaka and Rangpur is much more profitable. It has that classic Shakib V Mash rivalry that is ever so present in BPL. T20 is a batsmen game, bar Tamim Iqbal not alot of big names. Butler has been a flop, Shoaib Malik is okay at best, Bravo is more of a bowler, Samuels is also very good. People mostly pay to watch a big innings. You won't get that with Comilla team. Rangpur is more marketable and will attract more crowds, people in the street do not know who Marlon Samuels or buttler is. But they can surely recognise Gayle,Baz,Malinga.

BPL is staged to let Rangpur and Dhaka be in the finals. If it isn't I am happy to be called the forum idiot.
