when Bangladesh beat newzealand on practice, everybody was like ok it can happen, by accident of course. when bangladesh win with india, people was like biggest upset in world cup ever. when bangladesh wins against south Africa, people saying now its one of the biggest upsets in this world cup. looks like at least they are improving, under the shadow of big bros. whats next? can bangladesh go to semi? i think no, but they had enough already. hands for them.
It was totally fixed....just what the bookies ordered ...they had to lose this one.....Smith was playing to lose the moment he came on to bat.....they were throwing their wickets away....and gibbs came in late ...top scored since he was already under suspicion....kallis ,boucher , Smith and Gibbs and there has to be 1 more...fiixed the match. there was nothing in the pitch.....they were just standing on their backfoot and trying to pedal the ball away......just the body langauage of smith and gibbs gives it away.....these guys are not paid as well as the indians... they mustve been paid mammoth amounts. England is being kept alive.
Well this is not done by Accidentaly but it is done by thier hard work and their coach who provide better inspration to his team to make this things possibles. They are improving well and they have good futures.
2 of the bangladesh bowlers have huge potential, morteza is quick and accurate, he is young and will serve bangladesh for a long time. other bangladesh bowlers are also nice and can bowl well at the international level. but then they need atleast 2 world class batsman, then they will have a nice possibility of winning most matches against the big teams. remember last time kenya made to the semis!! anyways, congratulations to bangladesh, they are winning over the big ones consistently. india is going to tour bangladesh next month, lets see what will happen
Was Shocked when I read that South Africa lost to Bangladesh and that too with good difference of 65 Runs OMG!. Australians be ready for Bangladesh match
I am not agree with you jimmy at this point.......after the woolmer's death .....everyone is in shock and they dont wanna take risk of talking to the bookies. BTW Bangladesh are capable of doing anything ,dont forget thet already beat Australia ,and no hope for semis but they have a wonderful world cup all credit to watmore and the bangldesh team....they are playing like the true champions.....I like the way they come to field.. good keep it up.. with great wishes Lucky
I Don't think it was got up.. Bangladesh is playing well under the guidance of Dave whitemore. Don't forget what srilanka did in 96 worldcup...
Bangladesh is playing well , rather they are playing sensibly & aware of where their strengts & limitations lie , credit goes to dave whatmore. SA always has a dodgy batting lineup & the bowling is pretty much the same ,"monochrome bowling" is how the experts call it. I wouldnt call this victory a "fluke" , they have defeated three quality sides in a space of few matches.
BD is playing really well. It can't always be just upset's They can improve further if they just strengthen the middle order
At first i want to give thanks bangladeshi player to beat SA.If we saw last one month bangladesh beat three giants like Newzeland,India,and South Africa.It is not easy to beat three giants within one month.Hope Bangladesh will win their next three match and will prove it was not a fluke, they are capable to do anything in this world cup.GOOD LUCK BANGLADESH.
Hi got hurt when our achievement is marked as fixed? Did not Ashraful batted splendid? All the spiners bowled tied and accurate. Even before starting the match all commentators were saying about that- the strength of Bangldeash having tree left arm spinners
I been seeing india pakistan craze since I was kid. without them world cup ain't same. good for bd, another emerging team in subcontinent. they are all young not matured yet. they play good as a team, but they dont have any individual like india pak who can win the match. it took them a lot to get to this stage though. every loss makes them go under the jaw of reporters. it must hurt. you wont believe how crazy people go in bd after every win. they watch games all night then all come out on the streets. well good luck to them and hopefully they can keep up.
webcosmo the thread u created saying its accidental win. If you read in many experts opinion on various sports magazines they view it differently. BD has talents. Need skills and temparement for wining regularly
sigh .. this is no accident.. our players are well trained and they gonn win this world cup this year - whippppp yoooo ... i am sooo proud o ma country
India won the Champ Trophy in 1983....... The most upset in World Cup Cricket history, which will remain alive forever. The world will never see such a fun. My bad luck, when I was a kid, then the funny history happened.
Whatever it is, people around the will remember that Bangladesh bit SA in an important WORLD CUP MATCH in 2007. Record book will show the result forever.
It must be a real joy watching a team grow. Another strong team more fun things. I just get fun from the fact that, everybody used to think that playing with bd means some sure points, and now they have to think twice before saying that. But bd still need to be matured more, they are young, not much experienced. But they will have those on time.
feels sorry for these players .their country can't pay them enough so they loose to countries like Bangladesh to get money from bookies. wat a lame shame .
