Why BD is not so good against Bharat?

Check out the monthly income of Indian crickters and compare it with BD. They get less than half of what Pakistanis get and 1/5th of Indians. And other factors Indians have rich domestic tournaments and huge sponsor support to promote players. Plus they have improved infrastructures for long.

What a pathetic display of batting by Pakistani's absolutely shambles, the batsman never learn from their mistakes, keep on repeating same mistakes over and over, I wouldn't blame the bowlers its the batting that is letting us down really badly, its time Pakistan should invest heavily in grooming the batsman. it baffles me why did Shahid afridi opt to bat first, knowing very well batting first is very difficult due to the conditions which suit the bowlers.

Windies never got as much money as the Australians or the English - they dominated the sport for 2 decades. Don't make excuses.

Different story when cricket was a gentlemen's game and were played among very few circles now talk in the era of cricket's commercialization. No Bangladeshi got enough to play cricket only for passion. I know many talented people in BD who left cricket to focus on some real career path.

Asia Cup, Match 8: Bangladesh beat Pakistan in a cliffhanger; play India in final



In a do-or-die game, hosts Bangladesh beat Pakistan in a nail-biting finish to book a berth in the final.

After the match, Afridi congratulated both the finalists -- India and Bangladesh.

"I want to congratulate India and Bangladesh for qualifying for the final. We made too many mistakes. It wasn't a good total, but the bowlers did superbly," said Afridi in the post match presentation.

Pakistan lost two off their three games so far in the on-going Asia Cup. And Afridi said that the team has to do something really special in the forthcoming ICC World T20, which is scheduled to start from March 8.

"We have to do something very special (at the World T20) because ours is a tough group. We've given youngsters plenty of opportunities, what else can you do?"

Now Pakistan will play a dead rubber against Sri Lanka on March 4, as the finalists are already decided.

On the other hand, an elated Bangladeshi skipper Mashrafe Mortaza labeled today's victory as of their biggest wins.

"It's a big won for us, this was like a semi-final. Told the boys to just grab it, because we knew there would be plenty of such matches in the future. There was a bit of pressure in the middle, but we coped well.

"Final will be another pressure game, the trick is to just back each other. It's a pleasure for us to play at home, thanks to the crowd for coming out in supporting us. Hopefully they'll continue to do that.

Soumya Sarkar is the Man of the Match for his solid 48," Mortaza stated after the match.

Asia Cup: Tigers win by 5 wickets, shatter Pakistan's final dreams

  • l_101663_050627_updates.jpg




    DHAKA: The Bengal Tigers shattered Pakistan's bid to stay in the running to play the final of the Asia Cup after achieving the 130 ruin target with 5 wickets and 5 balls to spare.

    For Pakistan, defending the 130 run target was a must in order to remain in the running to play the final of the Asia Cup.

    With this defeat, Pakistan has lost 12 out of 13 times it was restricted under 130 runs when playing the first innings in a T20.

    Pakistan was unable to a repeat performance of 2012 when it had won against Sri Lanka.

    Pakistani skipper Shahid Afridi elected to bat first against Bangladesh at the Sher-e-Bangla Cricket Stadium in Dhaka after winning the toss.

    Pakistan lost its earlier game against India, but survived a match against the UAE.

    India has so far remained the tournament’s unbeatable champion winning all three matches it played.

    Bangladesh star bowler Mustafizur Rehman will not play the match today, after he suffered an injury during a match with Sri Lanka. Rehman played a vital part in the team’s victory.

    Pakistan have brought in Anwar Ali in place of Mohammad Nawaz.

    Pakistan Team: Mohammad Hafeez, Sharjeel Khan, Khurram Manzoor, Umar Akmal, Shoaib Malik, Sarfraz Ahmed†, Shahid Afridi*, Anwar Ali, Mohammad Sami, Mohammad Amir, Mohammad Irfan

    Bangladesh Team: Tamim Iqbal, Soumya Sarkar, Mohammad Mithun, Sabbir Rahman, Mushfiqur Rahim†, Shakib Al Hasan, Mahmudullah, Mashrafe Mortaza*, Al-Amin Hossain, Arafat Sunny, Taskin Ahmed

    'India defeat a wake-up call'

    Former senior players of the Pakistan cricket team are vouching their support for the green shirts.

    Pakistan team manager Intikhab Alam said, "Defeat from India served as a wake up call for Pakistan. Senior players have begun to play responsibly."

    Ramiz Raja, a former Pakistan cricketer and commentator, said that the Pakistani batting line lacks technique. "If Pakistan loses, this will be the first major setback before the World Cup."

    Former fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar said, "The first six overs are critical. If the batsmen make 130 to 140 runs, the bowlers will be able to defend the score."
