Ireland v Bangladesh

delta_bravo

Surprised there is no thread for this. Ireland are bowling after Bangladesh won the toss. Ireland already looking shaky. 40-0 off 4 overs

Tordelback

Ouch, this is painful stuff! Following it here, and suffering in the process:

Pauleta

It a very ugly start. The wicket looks great for batting on but if they continue this scoring for another few overs the game will run away from us.

Mothman

Bang, 50 off 35 balls....:(

Cremated

A great stumping by Niall from John Mooney, Imrul is out ...

Sparks43

Come on lads


Gickball next

Pauleta

Let the collapse commence

TheDrog

Is anyone else having trouble with the Red Button on Sky Sports 1 (both 'normal and HD)?
The little notice is there at the bottom right of the screen telling me to use it to see BAN v IRL, but it just keeps bringing me back to the NZ v AUS match

Sparks43

GET IN


Bye bye Gickball:D

BOTHA GET IN, Tamim is gone!...

Cremated

Shakib GONE!...

Great reaction from Botha

Peadar06

The Umpires have called for the drinks break at the fall of that wicket for Bangladesh.

delta_bravo

Dockrell up now. Looking forward to seeing him in action

D3PO

great comeback after that horrid first 6 overs. If we can get another breakthrough soon i think the panic will set in and we could get the banglers out for under 200

Mothman

Fantastic comeback

so what does everybody reckon is a par score here.

Cricinfo trying to say 230 would be a hard chase. Im not buying it. 650 runs scored in 100 overs here last week. No way the pitch will have changed that much since then.

Im thinking 270 is par. Anybody else got an insight ?

Cremated

Well Botham says this pitch won't change, and it's full of runs, I would have thought 300 is par?...

Marshy

Tbh I think we should be aiming for 250 max with 4 wickets down already. Though slightly more might be attainable.

Excellent from Dockrell here...

Cheers for link Sparks43

i was thinking that but decided to be a little more conservative in my assesment. no idea how crick info reckond 230 would be a good score to post granted there migth be a slight dew factor but really come on. :rolleyes:

Just remember that we're in the same division against this year. Also they're moving all the irish fans upstairs

sweet didnt realise that . Hope your going to bowl me a few half trackers to help my average :D

on a serious note dont like the way these 2 are consolidating for a 10 over heave at the end. we need 1 - 2 wickets int he next 8 - 10 overs me thinks

Mushy

Another out:D

Finally getting to watch this.

Cremated

Oh Georgie Boy you beauty, nice call D3P0 ...

Peadar06

Dockrell strikes for Ireland. A poor shot from Rahim when things were looking quite good. Flighted delivery outside off, Rahim got down and tried to sweep it through the leg side. He got a top edge and the fielder at short fine-leg accepted an easy catch. Bangladesh are five down!

Marshy

Back of the net Georgie!

C'mon Ireland, another wicket now and put them under real pressure

Is it just me or is the cricinfo commentary very biased towards the Bangers?

very biased, but then its probably a bangladeshi on commentary duties at the moment.

were doign very well only two things concern me right now

1) Dockers is doing so well that I wonder how chocked up their spinners will have outr top order. Plus those ECB selectors will be drooling over him :mad::mad:

2) Given the last 5 overs in the first warm up versus the Zimbas Im not convinced by our death bolwing and am worried we let this slip.

damoz

Ouuttttt

Marshy

Super stuff!

Poor from Bangles tho

Peadar06

Bangladesh have lost their sixth wicket.

Dockrell strikes again. Ashraful is gone. A teasing line on the pads, Ashraful tries to sweep and gets a top edge which goes straight to the man at short fine-leg again. Bangladesh in real trouble now.

whatawaster

dockrell looks a little special. 2 wickets now

Cremated

Dockrell gets another, now the tail is here ...

actwithoutwords

Dockrell you beauty. Our death bowling is vulnerable, and you'd have to worry about our batting on a painfully slow spinners pitch. But we're well in this. Keep the wickets coming and our death bowling won't be an issue.

Sparks43

These gits in the chat are getting on my nerves

Mushy

Chances of being out before 200? Will go vote now so hopefully be out by time I'm home. And Tipp just got mentioned:D

Umpire review....mile out....7 down!

Marshy

mazing!

whatawaster

run out!

Cremated

Another one goes ...

reb73

Splendid recovery by the lads after the pasting in the first five overs.. Looks like Bangladesh don't want to be spend some time out there batting, maybe the pressure of the home crowd's expectations getting to them!
