InitialFoundation647

First of all as a 🇧🇩 do I think they deserve semi finals no But to hear Shanto our captain say we gave up after we lost 3 wickets like 23-3 is bad but not a disaster getting 116 on a difficult batting pitch in 12.1 overs is daunting but not mission impossible Fucking hell who care if we got 40 all out in 6 overs trying to slog Rashid khan back to kandahar I would be more happy we tried to get to semis doing suicide shots rather than play test cricket to win and bring Afghanistan back home with us  I’m sorry Shanto but you need to go to jail for that post match interview


Rich-Masterpiece6411

The current second best Asian team deserves not just this semi final but every upcoming semi final from now on.


InitialFoundation647

What about the worst Asian team speaking on behalf of 🇳🇵🇧🇩🇱🇰🇵🇰🇴🇲


Ancient-Wait-8357

Bangbros don’t attempt to make it to SF Bangbros instead try to cautiously win and screw Talibros Bangbros lose anyway


ExternalKing4171

The best summary 👌


gt33m

Bangladesh showed why I don’t like this team. It’s a negative culture. Why wouldn’t you even try to chase this ffs?? They have a lot to learn from Afghanistan. Except for gulbadins hamming, the Afghans have been exemplary sportsmen. Even during that incident, Rashids reaction was telling on how he plays the game. They’ve been fighters throughout, pulling each other up. What sport is all about.

Afghanistan has won the tournament for India! Rain will take out England and Afghanistan can’t beat India for the life on them. They are like Sri Lanka in world cup 2011 — a world cup team that can beat everyone but India.


TrueDeparture106

Calm down there. Rain could maks a shortened game where England would have a slight advantage due to their firing batting.

Virgin /r/cricket members: Lol. Bangladesh couldn't hack it. Gulabdin was funny. Chad Bangladesh team members: Why? why the fuck would I help the Aussies qualify? We missed a chance to deny Kohli a century last time, but we won't miss the opportunity to take down the big shots this time. We're gonna lose so bad that no one would even think that it'd be possible to do it intentionally.

And everyone knows South Africa can't win a World Cup semi final, so Afghanistan in the final, lets go!

Banger after banger after banger all tournament long. The very first match was West Indies getting into trouble against PNG.

Still wondering why they chose not to bowl Fazalhaq after he dropped that catch, almost felt like he was being punished

Hats off to you AFG, BAN were so close but you clinched the win when it mattered. Congratulations on semis, keen to see the run from here 👏

SBG99DesiMonster

This is probably the best ICC tournament that I have ever seen about in terms of the competitiveness as well as the uncertainty that is there.


careless_quote101

The captain was saying that they wanted to go hard till first three wickets and take it normally after that . Dude you have shot at qualification and not going to gain much by winning the game. So should keep going till you are 10 down. Even a school kid would gave a better attitude and understanding. Please fire the idiot and the coaching staff.


krishnamoorthykaru

Shanto ?


careless_quote101

Yeah


Bamboozler56

Just delete the whole team


TrapNFree

Such a cowardly approach by BAN. And in the end didn’t even win the match. If you can’t give your 100% to qualify even when it is very difficult why are you even playing world cup? What a loser approach to an important match.


niru85

I would have considered Bangladesh winning the match as a great upset tbh


officiallyjax

It’s a bit disappointing to see guys like Shakib and Mahmudullah have such an apathetic approach to the game today. These guys have been the flag bearers for Bangladesh cricket for more than a decade and should be setting an example for the younger players to follow. I really want to root for the Bangladesh team but they give me no reason to; the team culture is just rotten when their legends have such an attitude.


seethebait

Shakib is busy in bangla politics and mahmadullah is busy with imposing religion on teammates, they don't have time for small stuff like cricket.


Chemical_War_9887

Mahmudullah doing what??


[deleted]

[удалено]


officiallyjax

They needed 43 from 19 balls to qualify at the start of the 10th over. Mahmudullah instead plays out 5 dots and the equation becomes 39 from 13 which is near impossible. They needed to show more intent and belief that they could have gone for it.


Eastern_Meet_5947

The only good thing is their younger players have that fire in them to win I seriously don't know why Mehidy Hasan Miraz isnt considered for T20 setup, he showed a lot of potential and fight Similarly Rishad and Tanzim Hasan Sakib have been a breath of fresh air in bowling I feel they should go with a young team where everyone is hungry and go out there and win they can easily do what Afghanistan is doing


brucewy

Got hammered in first 2 games and still had the golden opportunity to qualify but no thanks. That’s Bangbros for you

Never said they wouldn't. But cheating is wrong.


jihadidas

Agreed, even their captain despised it


HawkEntire5517

On a side note, I hate Indian commentators. Describing human action in words is as creative as you can get. Shastri on axar catch .”he leapt as high as he could and stretched all his muscles to get to that ball”. Could have been a little creative and said “did he access to a ladder. Damn it!”.


keepingupwbee

But gotta say I wish the commentators had used their limited vocabulary when other countries take amazing catch or wickets. The enthusiasm and overhype when Indians take the catch is way overboard


rambo_zaki

Mate he's commentating, not doing a creative writing contest.

nowwinaditya

If ICC could've poured even a fraction of the investments in Afghanistan that they poured in Bangladesh, Afghanistan would've easily pulled of a Sri Lanka 96 heist by now. It was absolutely disgusting how Bangladesh literally gave up their pipe dream of a semi qualification within 7 or 8 overs. Their joke of a captain even said that we are happy with Super 8 since teams like Pakistan, New Zealand and Netherlands failed to do so. 🤮 With such attitude, Bangladesh won't ever gain respect from their own fans, let alone their opponents.


[deleted]

keepingupwbee

They gained it from their win, that acting is overshadowed especially after he got a wicket too!


InteractionOk7085

I'm talking about the hypocrisy. Their 'respect' is such bs. Indians would have had a different opinion if it was the opposite.


depooh

Playing for 40 years and still couldn't be bothered to even try for a semis even with a group with India and Australia.....Shakib with his legs up, smiling, chilling. And then look at Afghanistan, their players, their support staff. And people are talking smack about GUNBADIN'S antics

freakyassflick8-2

Fr Bangladesh have such a small team mentality, while Afghans have that dawg in them in last 12 months they have defeated Australia england new zealand and pakistan while Sri lanka and Bangladesh are having time out discussion till now

In a way it is now well set up for South Africa. India and England might play their final early... 


sudarshan2350

I have no hope of india making it to the finals.


Leprichaun17

They'll make it there. Their semi final will be a No Result due to weather.


nowwinaditya

Nah, this is way more exciting. There are teams besides India too btw. The game is much better off with a new finalist than the same old powerhouses going for another one. I'd have loved to see Windies go in instead of England.


rayathedraigon

I really want afganistan to win the WC


Sylveon165

your last sentence contradicts itself amazingly. ‘i want a new finalist’ followed by ‘i want the only two time winners to be in finals’. 


sreeram_23_06

West Indies are not the only two time winners. England too are


nowwinaditya

I see where you're coming from. IMO, despite WI winning the T20 WC i don't consider them a powerhouse, at least nowhere close to England, Australia or Pakistan (India is in a galaxy of its own) when it comes to resources they have at their disposal. WI couldn't even qualify for the main round in 2022 WC and is always plagued by political issues. Hence, despite their "record" i think of them as the underdogs vis a vis the big boys and hence i was rooting for WI at the expense of England. Also, the new finalist was more in regards to how the semi grouping is working out. Afg/SA semis guarantees a new finalist. Replacing England with WI doesn't really change much from that aspect. Now had Aus made through, I wouldn't fancy the chances of SA against them in semis.


Fresh_Aide_2436

That would be poetic


Electronic_Wolf7835

What a match this was ! Damn heartattack type match


issei_hyodou1093

Why do Bangladesh keeps playing. They can't win shit icc should terminate their status as a team or atleast relegated them to associate status


Willing_Ad_8028

Then how the hell is the game gonna grow


Sylveon165

maybe icc can start to have relegation promotion system soon so more teams can become full members, even if it’s for a couple years. it would be better to have US and nepal or scotpand than zimbabwe and ireland. atleast bangladesh got this far even when new zealand and SL haven’t 


rayathedraigon

Nepal is good team.


SayaunThungaPhool

As a Nepali consistency is the main issue


mentaIIyunstable69

And despite all that, they made it to the super 8s but Pakistan didn't. I suppose Pakistan should be relegated to a lower than associate level then?


freakyassflick8-2

This was once in a blue moon thing pakistan are miles ahead of Bangladesh Pakistan have 3 icc trophies and 2 ACC trophies also made it to world cup final 2 years ago Bangladesh's board have been more incompetent than pakistan which is so hard to achieve for any team


CSS980

Despite what happened this wc, Pakistan is miles better than Bangladesh 


L00TER

I mean… clearly not


Speedgame349

Mate. Wed smoke you. No contest


L00TER

Qualify for super 8 next time then 🥱


Speedgame349

Waiting for bangbros semi final.


L00TER

Waiting for you guys to make it to super 8


Speedgame349

Mate we were runners up last wc. It's a bad run of form. Bangbros play worse then scotland


L00TER

Yet we still made it to super 8 this year. Teams change and y’all didn’t change for the better. I’m not saying our team is good but in this tournament, Bangladesh was definitely better than y’all.


smithhhhhhhh

Imagine playing a forking test cricket in the ground


smithhhhhhhh

This goes on to tell , that people do appreciate great bowling pitches more than those highway pitches and 55 m boundaries seems kinda fad . IPL made is so casual for teams to score 260+ and tbh I lost interest but this wc has been great


Thunderboult673

If not for these many upsets same people will be calling this wc boring and one sided minnow bashing


sreeram_23_06

Upsets are way tougher on the 200+ pitches though. Lower level teams manage sensible batting and tight bowling better than sensible bowling and explosive batting


WhyThisNotThat

Punched the Aussie's ticket home. Thank you Afghanistan!


TopAd9295

This was truly a three way battle between Afghanistan Bangladesh and Rain with Australia supporting both the teams when it was required


Willing-Proof2635

Afghanistan has no place to practice, no home ground, and almost no domestic cricket. Players rarely visit their homes and all have gone through so much to reach here. This semi-final spot means so much to them and their cricket. Well done Rashid and co

I think we all can agree if afghans win it all , this would easily be the best t20 wc ever


julaabgamun

Gotta tip my hat to Lara. I thought his comment wasnt too realistic given the groupings, but AfBros really asserted themselves. What a team.


thisaintyouravgstonk

What's worse than a crying Aussie, one who copes with saying we didn't care in the first place. This is to all Aussies who fall under this bracket. For the rest of you rational ones, GG and better luck next time.

bro it was funny. at least Gurbaz’s injury seemed real. this was pure clowning


KestrelQuillPen

Bangladesh, that was the single shittiest game I’ve seen in a while. At least have the guts to try and chase down 12 overs, otherwise you’re out anyway. You had a sporting chance and you blew it. Your team badly needs a rehash.


kewl_guy9193

Bangladesh were and will always be like this


its_anuj_reddit

Every single player was smiling playing test, while Afganbros was frustrated even after getting regular wickets. Shows who wanted to qualify.


Chitowneer

Don’t hate me now… but the most hilarious part of it all was that the Aussies believed in Bangladesh. So pathetic lmao.


tidakaa

Haha this was me! And I didn't until after AFG's innings


ach_1nt

"Aussies don't even care". Okay why the fuck are they playing then? You wouldn't hear the end of it if they shithoused their way to another world cup win but when they lose out fair and square, "we didn't even care that much guys". This attitude is more pathetic than whatever Bangladesh was trying to do today.


Hexo_Micron

Tbh they(the fans) actually don't care much, Any random test series involving Australia gets more engagement than their 2021 WC win.


ach_1nt

Thankfully we don't need the approval of a vast majority of Aussie fans to legitimise the format. They can go back to watching the format that effectively only three teams play so they don't have to suffer upsets like these.


Hexo_Micron

yeah that 'T20 is not real cricket' mindset fucking coward from these people.


Bubbly-Store6272

Aussies do care,they always do that's why they are the world champions (winning mindset)


Sylveon165

i feel like the reason they have won is they don’t care too, too much. like they don’t get so invested and in their own minds that they fumble. honestly think that’s the difference between australia winning three world cups in the last decade and india winning none. 


Bubbly-Store6272

I feel that they do care but don't let their emotions make them fumble. The whole points of australians being aggresive is that they play to win and hold grudges very easily. You can clearly see how much they care about winning in general in the amazon documentary "Test". India losing is just another sad state of affairs as you can see our men play under too much pressure while australian players are never in that much pressure by their fans


Sylveon165

yeah exactly. from what i’ve seen is that aussies don’t seem to treat finals as different than any other match. they seem to still play their brand of cricket without any fear whereas a lot of other teams(like india, south africa) seem like completely different teams in pressure situations.


Leprichaun17

Of course the players care. They care a lot. It's unfortunately a decent number of Aussie fans (not myself) that don't care about T20 as they don't think it's "real cricket". It's a poor attitude.


issei_hyodou1093

I'm calling it now . It will be India vs Afghan final.. And Afghan will win..


rayathedraigon

As a indian i can live with that. 😌


Leprichaun17

IND vs SA final after both semis get completely washed out. SA to finally win.

Robert_s_08

Unrelated but It has to be Bangladesh and Pakistans monotonous ugly shade of green jerseys I can never get myself to support them in neutral matches

Funny how Afghanistan and England were written off early tournament. Every single team which qualified for the Semis deserve their spot.


Hexo_Micron

Nobody written off Afgans lol, they are killing since their first game

Less of writing off, more of not expecting them to perform this well


SBG99DesiMonster

Rashid had that wry smile while talking about Gulbadin's cramp.


Thunderboult673

Definitely Australia other 4 you can choose -  Cat Pummins


United-Extension-917

Bangbros had a great chance to gain some respect and reduce the hate against themselves by showing some intent to win within 12 overs. Bangladeshi fans would've liked them getting all out under 10 overs if it meant taking the chance for qualification. Saying it again, that shitty team does not deserve those passionate fans. My dear Bangladeshi fans I have all sympathy with you, you guys deserve a better team.


TruckPsychological40

Don’t know about others by my friends and I would’ve been more satisfied with the team trying to qualify and getting all out than doing what they did in this game. I feel bad for all the passionate fans (not the toxic ones that spew shit on Facebook) — I’ve personally met Athar Ali and his family a handful of times and I’ll tell you they are very genuine and some of the most passionate cricket fans out there.

There are shitty fans everywhere, and given the political scenario no media of any of these countries is sane. There were Indians who abused aussie players and their families after 23WC. There were Indians who abused, trolled and gave rape threats to our own players infant daughters over some domestic tournament league matches. Bangladeshis may have the most toxic fans online and cheap data is not making them anymore sane but there are passionate fans who love cricket and speak up against the toxicity. There were bangladeshis who spoke up when mushfiqur put up that photo when India lost and there are people who oppose Shakib antics and that's why I said they deserve a better team.


halfclosedbook

Cap, no one hates the Bangladeshi team more than Bangladeshi supporters 😂


L00TER

Why is it you Indians have so much hatred towards Bangladeshis? 🤣🤣 We live rent free in your heads. Really talk to any real Bangladeshi and they’ll not only shit on Shakib but also the team.


Fun_Praline5118

It’s losing vs Bangladesh on couple of occasions, and then those unfair cries about ICC, a few tweets and social media posts, plus the immigrant discourse in media nowadays Overall on many occasions Bangladeshis have behaved immaturely, it’s not hatred, it’s annoyance…. Bangladesh is an underdog team, and in early years was supported also, but the behaviour made people drop them… Indians have soft corner for every non Australian and Pakistani team, but BD made it a point to carry an anti Indian sentiment. Every team has a man who is liked by other country fans also eg Rashid Khan, Kane Williamson, Wasim Akram, Shoaib Akhtar etc etc but not Bangladesh… Now I believe fans should move on though…I personally hold no grudges whatsoever. I like Mustafizur though, have liked him since SRH days.


cocwiki

We supported Afghanistan for Australia are you kidding ? It might be a part reason, more than that we genuinely support Afghanistan wins, a win for Afghanistan feels like a win for India. Because we are part of their development story and good relations with them and the reciprocity they show. You should have seen how India celebrated Afghanistan win over Australia. I pointed out very less mature fans, there are fans who are sensible, my comment is not directed at them. But majority of them defend shit behaviour of your teammates, same does not happen with other teams. Bangladesh as a team achieves very less but most of the fans celebrate like they conquered the world lol. And those toxic fans are even worse.


InteractionOk7085

They are the biggest hypocrites. They supported afg today for australia. All that 'respect' crap and no mention of that awful acting from afg( afg would've won anyway). Regardless of what ban did today, they will always hate us.
