Ireland vs Bangladesh ODI Series 2010

[ZexyZahid]

This is funny. Both Bangladesh and Australia (playing against Pakistan in 1st Test) are at 227-8 currently.

Siddique got 100 runs and he is the only Bangladeshi top 4 batsmen I don't have.

Kevin O'Brien and Cockrell have been disappointing. And since when is Stirling bowling? I thought he was just an opening batsman.

 

[Chewie]

Stirling's been bowling quite often recently

Chewie added 0 Minutes and 44 Seconds later...

But I expected Dockerell to do better with the ball based on recent form. Johnson is just as I expected, Rankin too. O'Brien normally does a bit better with the ball, but he'll make up for it with the bat

 

[ZexyZahid]

Kevin O'Brien normally bats at number 5, so I am hoping that the Bangladeshi bowlers will get 3 quick wickets, so Porterfield and Kevin O'Brien can build an innings.

 

[ZexyZahid]

AkshayS, p.o.l, pavanbharadwaj and scion_sid have the combination of Siddique and Porterfield. scion_sid has even Porterfield as captain.

 

[SciD]

Potterfield is my captain and Siddiqui is my + player :banana2

 

[ZexyZahid]

Ireland is batting so great, that Kevin O'Brien isn't even getting a chance to bat.

 

[Akash00]

Porterfield ruins my chance of getting to the top after some huge failures.

[SciD]

Please rain in second match :upray

 

[ZexyZahid]

Rain was expected today in Belfast, but it didn't happen. For tomorrow rain is also expected: 10 day Weather in Belfast - weather.co.uk

 

[SciD]

Never trust weather in that part of world.

 

[ZexyZahid]

That's what I was hoping for today. That Ireland would bat first and that's happening now. It will give Kevin O'Brien a chance to bat.

 

[AkshayS]

probably I can get back to my old form of FC with this game.

 

[ZexyZahid]

Kevin O'Brien didn't do much with the bat. Shafiul Islam got four wickets and I don't have him.

Imrul Kayes failed again with the bat and Cusack got a nice duck for me.

 

[ZexyZahid]

The gamble of Kevin O'Brien making captain didn't work out well it seems.

The ones who have Tamim Iqbal as captain will raise in the standings.
