DS2, you not there today?

Leo
from Bengaluru |

He's silently cheering Lankans re. Too exciting and nervous to comment!

Dhiraj Shenoy

 I was lost in my own world today ..........

Leo
from Bengaluru |

Sad that Sri Lanka are out.

DS
from Mumbai |

70 for 3. Need wickets urgently!

Leo
from Bengaluru |

Yes.. SOS Lanka.. get wickets or you are knocked out. Expecting Banglas to beat India tmrw after a loss today is as near extreme optimism. 

DS
from Mumbai |

You never know with India! They are capable of losing to Bangladesh too!!

Leo
from Bengaluru |

They are capable! Cool but then, if that happens, is it safe for them to cross the border and return back to India? A loss to a strong Aussies is okay, but to a not-so-strong Bangladesh might be unacceptable right?

DS
from Mumbai |

We have done that before, in WC 07! Remember!

Leo
from Bengaluru |

I know. But in this successive losses situation, would that still be accepted?

DS
from Mumbai |

Its not a question of what is acceptable or not!!

Leo
from Bengaluru |

Okay!

DS
from Mumbai |

lol! We will see tomorrow:)

Leo
from Bengaluru |

99percent, I'll probably be on leave from office tomorrow! Cool

DS
from Mumbai |

For?

Leo
from Bengaluru |

For rest re Tongue out besides, I've got some Casual Leave left to use before it lapses this month end.

DS
from Mumbai |

Okies! SL have almost lost this one! Need a miracle from here!

Leo
from Bengaluru |

I'm praying for a Kulasekara hat-trick!

Leo

Pakistan beats Sri Lanka. The Islanders are now out of the tournament.

With 3 matches left, Bangladesh need to beat both India and Sri Lanka to compete for a finals slot.

If India beat them tomorrow, the finals are settled. 

Leo
from Bengaluru |

India v/s Bangladesh in the 45 minutes.. changes afoot for Team India or not? 

Leo
from Bengaluru |

Yes, just the one.. Dinda gets a game ahead of Vinay Kumar.. which was predictable. Why is Jadeja still in the side when he's underperformed? Weird ploys by MSD.

Leo
from Bengaluru |

Bangladesh want to chase the total tonight, so they've elected to field on winning the toss. Can they restrict the Indians to a sub-par total on a good batting track? Time will tell. 

Leo
from Bengaluru |

Gauti gone early. Ind trying to steady through Sachin n Kohli now. 30/1 in 7 over.

Leo
from Bengaluru |

50/1 now. Bangladesh not giving away much.

Leo
from Bengaluru |

Tendulkar to 50 n then nearly stumped. India steady at 92/1 after 19 overs.

himanshu rajput
from Bijnor; Dharamshala |

wanna see 100th hundred today...

Leo
from Bengaluru |

so do many others. :-)

Leo
from Bengaluru |

Midway through 1st Inns. India are ticking along at a decent pace. now 125 / 1. Tendulkar on 61 n Kohli on 44. Partnerships 100.

Leo
from Bengaluru |

Tendulkar looking good for that elusive 100. playing sensibly.

himanshu rajput
from Bijnor; Dharamshala |

125/1 (25 overs)....come on SRT!!!!!!!

Leo
from Bengaluru |

easy dude. :-P B-)

umesh derebail
from Mumbai |

Sachin is definite to clock his 100th Century

Leo
from Bengaluru |

agreed.

Leo
from Bengaluru |

Kohli onto 50 :-) A well played innings.

Leo
from Bengaluru |

Tendulkar into 80s. India are riding on 2nd wkt partnership again. 160/1 after 31.

Leo
from Bengaluru |

slight urgency to Sachin. nearly runs himself out.

Leo
from Bengaluru |

and then nearly a catch to point.

Leo
from Bengaluru |

both batters frustrated by a spell of good bowling by Bangladesh. 169 / 1 after 35. batting power play now I think. Tendulkar on 87. Kohli playing well too.

himanshu rajput
from Bijnor; Dharamshala |

CRR falling!!!

Leo
from Bengaluru |

not enough to cause major concern yet.

Leo
from Bengaluru |

yes. the batting power play now has been taken.

Leo
from Bengaluru |

And then... Kohli goes. bowled for 66.

Leo
from Bengaluru |

himanshu rajput
from Bijnor; Dharamshala |

i was too expecting MSD

Leo
from Bengaluru |
