Right now the winning probability of Bangladesh is found to be 70% and Afghanistan is just 30%. When the match goes live things will change. By now Afghanistan was scheduled to play against Zimbabwe, but for some reason it has got delayed. Now Afghanistan is touring Bangladesh, both the teams are in good form. Afghanistan is playing after marking it's series win against Netherlands. Bangladesh have drawn the test series against New Zealand and now getting ready to play Afghanistan in its home soil.

The Afghanistan vs Bangladesh ODI series will start on the 23rd Feb at Zohur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium, Chittagong.. I think Afghanistan will want to win at least one match out of three in this series.

However, I think Bangladesh will easily win this series 3-0. Because there is no doubt that Bangladesh is playing very well at home. Yes, I am also excited to introduce new young players to Bangladesh in this series. Among them, Munim Shahriar's performance is outstanding, Let the newcomers perform well.
Right now I am not favouring your this statement that Bangladesh can win this series easily with the score of 3 - 0 because these both teams have very interesting facts in last 8 matches Bangladesh won 5 and Afghanistan won 3 with in last 5 matches against different sides Bangladesh won 4 out 5 and Afghanistan won 5 out of 5, so this is going to be very tough series for both teams both having services of few very talented and skilled players now Bangladesh done some good job as they bring few new faces with most experienced players because this is very important time for bringing youths in front of old and experienced players for better performance in future.

With new Head Coach Stuart Law and having good experience against West Indies and Sri Lanka, surely they will be in upper hand, but Afghanistan is also not an easy side to be beaten.

I am really excited to see some of the new faces that will be introduced in this series by Bangladesh. Tamim Iqbal is not playing, so it is expected that Munim Shahriar and Litton das are going to open the bedding for Bangladesh.
Munim Shahriar played really well in this year's BPL and the selectors are really optimistic about this player. I think Bangladesh is going to perform well in the series as they are facing a low-ranked team in home conditions.
I read that Bangladesh has included 4 new faces in there squad Yasir Ali, Mahmudul Hasan Joy, Ebadot Hossain and Nasum Ahmed. It is very likely that these new faces will get chance in different matches. Bangladesh must not take Afghanistan lightly as they are good in ODI and T20 format. Bangladesh is experienced side but there recent performance is not very satisfactory.
Senior members of the hosts' team have returned. Several uncapped players have been named following the match, but Mahmudul Hasan Joy remains hopeful. Afghan players participate in the BPL regularly, so the conditions are familiar to them. All matches are scheduled to take place at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram, not at Mirpur. It is a good side, which means big shots, big boundaries, and of course decent runs on the board.

The first ever international cricket match in recorded history was played between Canada and the United States in 1844. There were countries such as Argentina, Denmark and France which used to have a large number of cricket clubs. All that is history now, because the ICC was never interested in any region outside the traditional commonwealth (South Asia, England, Australia-NZ.etc). Outside the 5-6 test nations, cricket continues to decline and that is true even for some of the test nations such as Ireland, South Africa, West Indies and most of the Associate nations. 
No doubt cricket is having very long history but sadly due to his nature and system it has never been adoptable for many countries even we have some very unauthentic stories about this but with the recent changes happening these can give some big change and better result in adoption because with this many countries and sports authorities feeling now they can take good profit with in short period like they have in soccer and rugby.

But, sadly we have no mainstream for this all which is the biggest concern like you are saying we are losing passion in many test playing nations, so I am feeling after one decade we will watch just 20/20 and 10league and similar other short formats because test could be disappeared from scene and this is good for players management and all related parties.

Afghanistan tour of Bangladesh starts 23rd. Three ODIs will be played between these two teams. Bangladesh is hot favourite as they have won the last two bilateral series against Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe. Afghanistan on the other hand has performed very well in recent times. I am sure they would like to win a few matches in this series.

Indian women lost there forth consecutive ODI to NZ-W. NZ-W gave a small target of 191 and seeing the performance of Indian team it was expected that they will chase the target easily. Richa Ghosh and Mithali are top scorer who contributed 80 of total 128 runs made by Indian. It 4-0 now, Indian team should work hard to avoid whitewash.

It is the International Cricket Council that hasn't submitted an application for the inclusion of cricket into the Olympics. Cricket has been played in the 1900 Olympics with the participation of Great Britain and France. Till date that match stands to be the first and last cricket match played in Olympics. Further there is no countries to participate and the cricketing teams shrunk compared to rest of the games though it has got billions of followers.

Bro, are they dumb? Or don't they have any shame or self-respect?  Smiley

Cricket is a big sport and played by a lot of people worldwide. First of all, it's a shame that ICC even says that cricket will be in the Olympics after 10 years because it should be done much earlier than that.

And I think if I see was not so greedy and actually cared about the game it would have been accomplished a long time ago. And I actually agree that this date of 10 years is going to be postponed again.

Cricket is a game that is confined to few countries only and its among top sports only because people of India, Pakistan, Bangladesh are crazy about it and combine population of these three countries is almost 1.75 billion. In terms of countries it has very small radius, we have only 10 regular cricket teams.
Only one team from America continent i.e. WIndies, nothing from southeast asia, just one good team left in Africa i.e. South Africa.

That is a fact, it is difficult to introduce a new sport in a busy world like today and people do not have the patience to learn a new sport. I started following the sport to place a bet and then this forum is the only space where i talk about Cricket as none of friends knows about the game. If the sport is included in the Olympics then we have a chance to see some interest from the government to introduce the game so that they can win a medal, other than that, ICC can only spend money and they will not get the desired results like some speculate.
Introducing a new sport takes may take many decades to have a real impact. The most basic requirement is Olympic inclusion. If a particular sport is not included in the Olympics, then the governments don't have any incentive to support it. And this is exactly the reason why countries such as China and Russia ignore cricket completely. And the ICC is least bothered in getting Olympics included in the Games. Now they are saying that it maybe possible by 2032. And ten years later, they will claim that they will push for the inclusion in 2042. This sort of delaying tactics will go on forever.

Cricket is mainly ignored by big powers because of its time consuming nature i.e. Test and ODIs. With launch of T20 format it was expected that more countries will join in but sadly that did'nt happened. Cricket is also over a century old ( first test match was played in 1877) but sadly its still restricted to few countries only. Inclusion in Olympics is still not clear.
Yes when T20 was introduced it was also taken in mind that it can also be included in olympics in the future because it is less time consuming when we compare it with other two formats of cricket.
But even after that we have only heard talks of inclusion but I dont see this happening any time soon.

Not being favorable to ICC but I think introducing or popularising any sport around the world is difficult in the 21st Century. See after all every sport is all about money and viewership. If ICC has to introduce cricket in any country it has to ensure the people there watch cricket which is a real difficult task. You see cricket is a different sport and not that easy to understand, one would love to watch it only if one understands it which is possible if you have played the sport yourself or people around you play it.

And here we are talking about the whole world. Tell me any other Federation which has been able to popularize a sport around the world on it's own.
I agree, it's not easy but currently with the introduction of many formats it's good to do some marketing and having big advantage of Indian, Pakistani and Bangladeshi communities around the world this can do very good for better exposure, and they can earn some good money with this all.

Few years back cricket for around just test and ODI, but now we have twenty/20, Ten/10 and 100 Leagues which are very good for marketing purpose and bringing youths from many countries these are having time like other sports and with this entertainment we can spread cricket in Latin America which is big market and no team is representing in cricket but good thing recently we have teams from Canada and USA with Central American dominance is going to end as West Indies is collapsing very badly from this game.

Here I am also favoring Afghanistan in twenty/20 and for ODI series I have feeling that both teams will fight hard because one is having some experience and second is full of talent with this we are going to have some very exciting matches from these both sides, but Bangladesh is going to have some advantage as they are playing at home and their performance is very good against few teams here even few days back they lost against Pakistan but against Afghanistan they can do some better performance and most chances they will have some important points from this series as well.

ICC need to do some work for more cricket for these countries because this is very helpful and players will have some good experience from these matches instead of allowing them for leagues.

Don't rely on ICC for introducing cricket to new countries or improving level of associate teams, don't know what job ICC is doing other then serving Big 3.
Afghanistan has made progress on its own and biggest thing which contributed in promoting cricket in Afghanistan is the fact that afghan players are trained in Pakistan domestic setup. Bangladesh on the other hand is just an average team who hasn't achieved much in there 2 decades of cricketing career.
