2nd Quarter Final - India v Bangladesh (19th March)

[CricAddict]

Cricinfo saying up to 30K Bangladeshi's will be at the MCG

And the number of Indian fans are smaller and quieter. That will be a first.

 

[smalishah84]

30K bangers, that's huge, 30K to be quite disappointed

I expect dhoni to win the toss today and india to bat first. India to ratchet up close to 350

Bangers to get around 250 and end up losing by 100 runs.

Your predictions people

I hope this is true as I've just bet the house on Bangladesh winning as a result of the above post.

A unique way to avoid painting windows and missing the New Zealand game, I must admit. The joke shall be on you, however, when Bangladesh wins!

Expecting a closer game. India to get 320 with a Kohli century. Bangladesh to be in it on the chase for a while before losing the last few wickets due to pressure from the spinners and then the match meanders to Bangladesh getting 270-280 in the end.

$30K x xyz in wasted air-fare and hospitality. That's got to be a huge it to the Bangladeshi economy

And, obviously wins a second house which will also need its windows painted.

Nah Dhoni's had his share of losing the tosses, I remember back in 2009-10 while India won test match after test match Dhoni lost like 8-9 tosses in a row consecutively.

I don't remember that. All I remember generally is his amazing luck with the tosses in ICC tournaments

Didn't win it in world cup final last to time around.

Oh. I thought he had won it in all the finals.

Didn't he win all the tosses in the Champions trophy in England?

 

[Howsie]

Haha. "Any changes to your team", " Yeah one, I'm coming in" I haven't heard that before.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]
