[NYRB]

I'd say the world.

India is on my bucket list in 2024. Looks an amazing country.

 

[NYRB]

The Bangladesh players don't be too keen to dive on this ground- and fair enough, given the nature of the ground surface.

Shakib doing it again for Bangladesh

 

[NYRB]

Shakib got a Michelle Pfeiffer against Afghanistan in the 2019 World Cup.

 

[NYRB]

100 up for Afghanistan in 21.2 overs

Rahim with his chirping from the Matthew Wade school.

 

[NYRB]

Pressure was getting to Hashmat and he has to depart for 18 off 37 balls.

 

[NYRB]

Its the spinners who have applied the squeeze here for the Bangladesh team.

 

[NYRB]

A wicket maiden from Miraz.

 

[NYRB]

Afghanistan in all sorts now at 112/4


They have to worry about batting their full 50 overs here.

I get home after buying some beer and i hear Haydos. Dharamshala is a lovely little venue for cricket.

 

[NYRB]

Make no mistake Bangladesh are up for this game today, their body language looks real good. Fielding has been on point.

 

[NYRB]

Afghanistan have a bit of a long tail, Mujeeb is batting at 9 today.

 

[NYRB]

Nabi and Najib probably need to be there around the 38th-40th over , so probably need to consolidate here as much as possible.

 

[NYRB]

Shakib loves playing Afghanistan, now has 8 wickets in his 2 World Cups against them and possibly still counting...........

 

[NYRB]

Omarzai new batter at 7 for Afghanistan.

I mean Rashid Khan is no mug with the bat at 8 but you wouldnt want him to bat 20+ overs at this stage.

 

[NYRB]

Runs have stalled after the 15 over period for Afghanistan.

From Over 16 to Over 30, only 43 runs have been scored.

 

[NYRB]

You wont win too many games in ODI games if you have a phase in the game where you score 43 runs off 15 overs.

 

[NYRB]

Bangladesh are going for the kill here, they want this 8th wicket.

 

[NYRB]

Gotta admit Shakibs captaincy has been outstanding today.

 

[NYRB]

Afghanistan are 150/7 and now we are into this long tail. Ample overs left.

 

[NYRB]

1st slip would have gobbled a 9th wicket for Bangladesh.

 

[NYRB]

You have to agree with Hayden, 'why no 1st slip?'

 

[NYRB]

Shoriful gets his 1st wicket and look at what that means to him. Afghanistan are crumbling in Dharmasala. They are 8 down.

 

[NYRB]

Bangladesh wouldn't mind a little Net Run Rate booster today.
