Agree with this too that our batting lineup wasn't good as well but still I think we should have gotten good early wickets against Bangladesh. Bowling and Fielding are two department which disappointed more than batting in last match.
The Indian team is over-dependent on Kohli and Sharma these days. If these 2 guys get out, the remaining players falter. Bowling wise, Chahal bowled decently while the rest were bad. They need to play better Cricket in my opinion.

Do you guys want to have a mutual betting pool for the next match?
Market: Including the super over who will win the match?
If you guys want a pool then I can host it.
Let me know if anyone have any question about how a mutual betting works. Let's have some fun :-D
Can we?
Definitely. Count me in. Are you talking about Onehash style mutual betting? What is the entry fee? Will you be using superbru for these contests just like before? Market: Including the super over who will win the match?

India really did have a whole new kind of bowling lineup- young mostly and inexperienced in terms of international cricket. I also thus feel that despite having Chahal , it would have been best to include someone experienced in fast bowlers like Shami maybe.
I am sure we are going to see a lot of changes in the next T-20 clash.

If Krunal could got Mushfiq, there was a chance to win. That was a total mess from him.
There's not much better option in the squad as well. Shardul Thakur may replace Khaleel Ahmed.

Guys! only one lose and all these mess :-P
Come on, it was just a bed day for India and any team can have this kind of days. In fact it's very common and we all know this. In bowling, betting even in fielding section I think India is way ahead then Bangladesh team.
Just take a breath and get ready for the next match.

There is no fast bowlers that proved themselves in the squad, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mohammed Shami, Kuldeep Yadav, Ravindra Jadeja are rested too and why would they want to rest the entire players and if these bowlers were in the squad then defending 148 will not be a big issue, i am not taking Jasprit Bumrah as he is injured but the rest of the players are more than capable of defending the total, the only bowler i have seen in this squad is Yuzvendra Chahal. If they are not able to score runs against Bangladesh then you cannot tell that the batting line up of India is better than Bangladesh, they defeated India and that record will stay in the record books, Bangladesh was clearly better than India and the bookies was also giving good odds for Bangladesh but i doubt anyone expected them to win the first T20 and with how they played the second T20 becomes interesting and i wont be surprised if Bangladesh win the series 
.
I disagree. India just had a bad day, but they will probably come back strong. Also, the Indian batting lineup is superior to the current Bangladesh batting lineup who is missing Shakib, Tamim etc which is why RaptarX is right in this case..You might be one among the minority who actually feels that Bangladesh will win this series. They barely won this one thanks to gifts from Krunal Pandya etc. Under-estimating the current Indian team is absolute stupidity.

In T20 if you are missing catches then it is difficult to win a match with a low total . There's not much better option in the squad as well. Shardul Thakur may replace Khaleel Ahmed.

Shakib al Hassan is not a child and he knew what he had to do in such instances. But here you are assuming that he didn't reported the matter to the ICC, because he never wanted to get involved in all these complexities. What I believe is that he refrained from reporting the matter to the ICC, because high ranking members of the SRH were involved in the match fixing mafia, and he was afraid that he will be kicked out of SRH and have his career ruined in case he comes out strongly against them.
Scapegoat? I don't think so. The fact is that both the BCB and Shakib messed up big time and he deserved the ban. Also, your accusations against SRH are still baseless. On top of all this, Shakib performed horribly in SRH and I wanted him kicked from the team.India did miss crucial catch and also I believe that their should have being some blend in bowling by getting one of the experienced bowler in the squad to help them to pick up wickets which was missing . This cost the match for India .
Krunal Pandya. He basically messed up big time since he could have dismissed Rahim when Bangladesh were still lagging behind, but dropped the catch and let it cross the boundary. Horrible fielding indeed. Bumrah's Absense is now feeling by Indian bowling attack as today against Bangladesh they was very poor even some good overs in middle but at the death overs they completley fail to produce some good result and give match very easily its good fight and win by visitors but still two matches and Indian team is very good in revenge so now some very hard time coming for Bangladesh.
India missed some crucial catches in the match and they missed a review which would have being a wicket if the captain reviewed and if they could have done those then they could have put pressure back on Bangladesh but they chased the score really well and Mushfiqur Rahim was in complete control during the final two overs and played some wonderful shots and Mahmudullah took the team home with a huge six and it was the perfect start to the series.India did miss crucial catch and also I believe that their should have being some blend in bowling by getting one of the experienced bowler in the squad to help them to pick up wickets which was missing .

ICC did the right thing here. Shakib is not a child and he knew what he was doing. However, I wish they would have handed him a 1-year ban like Smith and Warner.
You can't equate match fixing with ball tempering. IMO, the former is a much more severe crime. BTW, I have always believed that Shakib was made a scapegoat. You can check my post here:
Just noticed the post by JSRAW. So all this happened during the IPL 11, just before the match between Sunrisers Hyderabad v Kings XI Punjab. This actually raises a few uncomfortable questions about the IPL itself. First of all, how did the bookies managed to approach players representing the Sunrisers Hyderabad? Second, if they were able to approach Shakib, what is the guarantee that they didn't approached the other players? And thirdly, what is the surety that all of the SRH players turned down their offer?
I have always regarded the Sunrisers Hyderabad and the Chennai Super Kings as franchises prone to shady deals. The CSK were suspended for 2 years, and only returned to the IPL in 2018. CSK is owned by N Srinivasan, while the SRH is owned by his close friend and politician Kalanithi Maran. My guess is that rather than Shakib, it is the CSK/SRH franchises that are behind the scourge of match fixing. I would say that Shakib was made a scapegoat, so that Srinivasan and Maran could escape.

It was a shame that the rain came and stopped the Australia/Pakistan game as it was looking like Australia were cruising to victory at 0/41 in the 4th over. I really think Australia would of won this match as Finch looked in very good form but these things happen in cricket.
Well, Finch ain't very happy with the umpires. He thinks that umpires should've cut down the lunchtime by 5 minutes so that Aussies could get 2 overs extra.
Nothing can happen anymore, but it seems like the rules (with a little help of rain) literally stole the victory from Aussies.

Why didn't they have Bumrah? Another rest case?
If it's true then I am sure India paid the price to take Bangladesh lightly. They really did not do well in batting and now in bowling as well. From a team like India to score 148 runs in 20 overs is not really expected.
Bumrah is injured and even if he is fine i doubt they will select him for this series as India avoided many players in the playing eleven, Shami is not playing and so does Jadeja, India wants to make the Bangladesh fans happy and so is the reason India wanted to test the young players and give Rohit Sharma an opportunity to lead a second string team so that Kohli's ego will not get hurt If it's true then I am sure India paid the price to take Bangladesh lightly. They really did not do well in batting and now in bowling as well. From a team like India to score 148 runs in 20 overs is not really expected.

I think suspension was sort of a publicity stunt by ICC to prove that they will enforce discipline at whatever cost possible.
Hopefully this does not make much difference in Bangladesh squad. Shakib really is a very important player for them also in the cricket world he is very respected player.I think suspension was sort of a publicity stunt by ICC to prove that they will enforce discipline at whatever cost possible.

Isn't he ban for 1 year? Or more?ICC did the right thing here. Shakib is not a child and he knew what he was doing. However, I wish they would have handed him a 1-year ban like Smith and Warner.
I know a lot of people lost money in this match. Even if I was in the mood of betting then I would go for India too. I was just Lucky :-D
The timing was cruel as he was leading the team to fight against the low wages by their cricket board but he clearly violated the ICC code of conduct andit was clearly mentioned about the consequences if they did not inform them about bookies approaching them.
I saw that news some days ago and it did not seem too serious to me. I think they sorted it out.If the team is inspired to perform better and dedicate it to their team members it is well and good, the series is interesting now with Bangladesh winning the first match.
Well not only Shakib they did not have Tamim in the squad as well. This basically eased the picking for punters. No one indeed imagine in their bad dream that India was going to lose.
I made a parlay a week back and if i knew the team composition i would have never wagged for India to win the match, i was not expecting a complete change in the team and i was not able to cash out.By the way, in the post match interview someone from Bangladesh team said that it was dedicated to them (Shakib and Tamin) so clearly there were some inspiration was around in Bangladesh team.
If the team is inspired to perform better and dedicate it to their team members it is well and good, the series is interesting now with Bangladesh winning the first match. By the way, Shakibs suspension was really surprising. Sometimes ICC is too cruel.

Ball tampering and fixing are different issues, i consider giving Smith and Warner a years ban for ball tampering was excessive but in the future we will not see anyone doing the same mistake again and so is the reason they are giving out harsh punishment like these. Jump to:
