Re: Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe in Bangladesh
Sri Lanka won by 2 wickets with 11 balls to spare.
Murali hit a career best 33 not out off only 16 deliveries. Maharoof did extremely well to make 38 not out and more importantly hang around with Sangakkara when the game was on the line.
So Sri Lanka win the series but not convincingly.
Now Zimbabwe face Bangladesh in three more ODI's.

Re: Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe in Bangladesh
Hmm... not the result they would have been wanting. To have Sri Lanka 5/6 and then lose, well, thats terrible. They did very well, but that last over from Rubel Hossain was shite. Aww well, they are definately on the improve. Shakib (2 for 22 from 10) was once again very good.

Re: Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe in Bangladesh
Terrible choke, says a lot about Bangladesh really. They either get absolutely smashed or they get themselves into a winning position only to let it slide.
They should have won this game, letting Muralitharan score 33 off 16 is unforgivable. Sri Lanka did enough damage control to give themselves a sniff, Sangakkara was superb as was Maharoof and then Murali put the icing on the cake.
The one-day series between the Tigers and Zimbabwe should be a beauty.

Re: Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe in Bangladesh
Zimbabwe's 3 game series against Bangladesh is underway. On a pitch where scoring has proved difficult, Bangladesh won the toss and decided to bat first.
They've crawled to 1/12 in the 9th over, Rainsford and Mupariwa have bowled five maidens between them, including the first three overs of the match. Rainsford has the sole wicket, getting Junaid Suddique plumb in front for 3.
Bangladesh XI: Tamim Iqbal, Junaid Suddique, *Mohammad Ashraful, +Mushfiqur Rahim, Raqibul Hasan, Shakib Al Hasan, Mahmudullah, Naeem Islam, Mashrafe Mortaza, Nazmul Hossain, Rubel Hossain
Zimbabwe XI: Vusi Sibanda, Hamilton Masakadza, +Tatenda Taibu, Stuart Matsikenyeri, Sean Williams, Elton Chigumbura, Keith Dabengwa, *Prosper Utseya, Ray Price, Tawanda Mupariwa, Ed Rainsford

Re: Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe in Bangladesh
Mahmudullah throws his wicket away with a silly reverse sweep that travels straight to Dabengwa at point. Price has 3/20
6/103 in the 38th over, Mushfiqur Rahim has 21 and must be there at the end if Bangladesh want to post a competitive score. Naeem Islam walks to the crease.

Re: Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe in Bangladesh
Keith Dabengwa comes onto bowl and strikes in his first over. He uses the arm ball well and it gets through Rahim's defences as he plays the wrong line.
7/105 after 39. Mashrafe Mortaza is the new batsman, he can hit a ball too and Bangladesh will need that today.

Re: Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe in Bangladesh
Nazmul Hossain tries to smash Price into next week but is stumped for a duck and then Naeem Islam also tries a similar apprach but top edges and Dabengwa completes an easy caught and bowled in the very next over.
Bangladesh are all out for 124 from 48.1 overs, Raqibul Hasna top socred with 28. Ray Price secured his best ever ODi figures, taking 4/22 with Keith Dabegwa taking a handy 3/15.
Ashraful's decision to bat looks to have been a poor one. The last four games played at this ground has seen the side bowl first win so Ashraful's choice looks to have detrimented his team. That was their third lowest score against Zimbabwe too.
Plenty of work to do for Bangladesh although this pitch looks to be nightmare to bat on so it won't be easy for Zimbabwe. Zimbabwe don't have to do much though, they've got plenty of time to score the runs, they won't be in much of a hurry and can afford to take their time.
