Come'on Bangla!
ICC Cricket World Cup 2015
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Yea the ball sort of pitched just outside the leg. Half the ball was in line, with the seam just outside. Probably a milli meter inside and it was in line. Original decision was upheld. They didn't show if it went on to hit the stumps, it did appear so. Was a close thing.
Batting powerplay, here we go.
If we can get to 200 off 40 overs, we'll put this beyond Bangladesh in 50.
These two are the key. If either of these two get out now, Dhoni will come in and probably take a good few overs before accelerating.
Rain holds the key here, if we aim to score 280+
Right now, without brainfarts and stupidity, 280 is very gettable. Dhoni and Jadeja to come after this and Ashwin can score too.
Mortaza FFS.
Very unMCG like pitch btw.
38th over and the opener has only played 90 odd balls. That's pretty poor tbh.
The national anthem of both India and Bangladesh have been written by same person, Ravindranath Tagore 
Not seeing the game but appalling strike rates for Dhawan and Rahane.
We're fecked. Expect Dhoni to come out and block his way to a shit knock.

Feck off rain
Just sat down to watch the match and it starts raining.
Seems the rain has gone and play will start again soon.... hopefully it doesn't affect our momentum
Hopefully it will.
That's poor, should have been given out
Good going umpires. Idiots.Now that's a fecking joke.
Is this tournament rigged to ensure that India performs well? Everything from the format of the cup to these marginal calls make me suspect this. Commercial interests trumping cricket?
They should check Aleem Dar's bank accounts. That looked fishy. His hand was up in a flash.
Err.. how about a no?
No?
That wasn't even a marginal decision though Batsman falling forward is a good indicator it's well below his waist.
I think the umpire missed the ball completely

It was the other dude who signaled it.
It was a marginal decision. It's a controversially marginal decision. Come on, it's a full toss right around the waist of the batsman. It's probably out, but to say it wasn't marginal is not right.That wasn't even a marginal decision though

Dar gave the no-ball. Gould just conveyed it.
Let's wait for @Dumbstar . He will tell us who got how much money.
Yup, my bad!
300 very much on the cards. Difficult to see Bangladesh chasing it. 2-3 batsmen will need to play out of their skins.
You could almost be a Liverpool fan with that kind of bollocks
Any less than 300 and we still have a chance IMO.
Mortaza has been unbelievably shit.
First knockout hundred for anyone in this squad. Very good innings
Ah shite Raina out
Ah shite Raina out
The way ball skids in on MCG drop in pitch and how Indian bowlers bowled against SA, makes me think that Bangladesh will need to do very well. They have stroke players, just need to be sensible though. If somehow Bangladesh can restrict India to 275-280, then there is chance.
How fecking poor were England? No excuse for getting knocked out by these amateurs.
I really love to watch Rohit in full flow. Really annoyed that I am missing this.
We have to indeed. AFAIK, we can only trust Mahmudullah of our batsmen. The rest are like night and day.
Glorious six
