BAN Vs NZ: FIRST ODI


NEW ZEALAND Vs BANGLADESH

BANGLADESH TOUR OF NEW ZEALAND 2019 | FIRST ODI | McLEAN PARK, NAPIER | BAN Vs NZ | February 13, 2019 @ 6:30 AM IST|

After the home series against India, New Zealand will host Bangladesh for 3 ODI and 3 Tests. New Zealand was crushed by the Indians in the ODI format except for the fourth ODI, thanks to the heroics of Trent Boult. But New Zealand managed to win the T20 series 2-1 against India and they may wish to continue that form.
Bangladesh lost the practice game against New Zealand XI by 2 wickets and they might have things to ponder upon. Mushfiqur Rahim, Mahmudullah and Sabbir Rahman contributed with the bat. Their top order failed to get runs. Mustafizur Rahman was exceptional with ball and he might be a real threat to the Kiwis in these swinging conditions.

  • Taskin Ahmed, another fine pacer for Bangladesh is also in the grip of injury.

90s Great Bowlers

Best Bowlers in 90s 90s was a time when some of the best bowlers reigned in cricket. Many bowling records were made by the bowlers of that era. Team Predictors discuss about the two best bowlers from each team in 90s. 1. Australia: Glenn McGrath & Shane Warne   Glenn McGrath: Glenn McGrath was a disciplined bowler who was too precise with his line and length. Consistency was the term you could relate with the great bowler. McGrath was a part of 4 Australian World cup squads from 1996 to 2007. He has the most number of wickets in the world cup. The pacer has picked 71 wickets in world cup. He was the highest wicket taker in 2007 World cup with 26 scalps.  He is second in the list of fast bowlers behind James Anderson with the most number of wickets. McGrath has 563 test wickets from 124 matches at an average of 21.64. In ODI he has 381 wickets from 250 matches. McGrath was very economical in his outings and just hated to give away runs. The bowler has t...

Bangladesh Wins Test Match Against Zimbabwe

Bangladesh Vs Zimbabwe : Test Series 2021 Bangladesh beat Zimbabwe by 220 runs to win the one-off Test. Throughout the Test, the tourists displayed a lot of spirits, particularly with the bat, as their batsmen took advantage of the favourable batting environment. Liton, Mahmudullah, and Taskin's resilience enabled them to achieve a big first-innings tally in the opening innings. The scores by Shanto and Shadman in the second innings enabled them to set a massive target of 477 for the opponents. Bangladesh was 132/6 at one point in their first innings. You have to seize key moments in the game, and Zimbabwe was unable to do so. Bangladesh was successful in doing so, and Mominul and his team deserved that win. Brendon Taylor batted brilliantly for Zimbabwe but was caught out at the wrong time. Kaitano had a strong debut. His 311 ball 87 in Zimbabwe's first innings warrants a special note. In the first and second innings, Brendon Taylor hit 81 and 92 runs, respectively. Zimbabwe w...

Afghanistan Cricket

Afghanistan Cricket History The name Afghanistan brings into our mind images of a war torn nation with many radical groups fighting for power and supremacy. Afghanistan also faced some foreign invasions from USSR and USA later. But the nation is slowly coming back to the much cherished prosperity. Cricket has played a great role in bringing some solace for these people. Cricket is a bonding force for these people who are otherwise divided in terms of their caste, creed and politics.   Evolution of Afghanistan Cricket Cricket began to creep into Afghan blood when they were in Pakistan refuge camps due to Soviet invasion. You can see some similarity in the style of cricket in Afghanistan to that of Pakistan due to the very same reason. Even after returning from refugee camps, these Afghan boys didn't let cricket go from their heart and blood. Slowly it gained popularity across the nation. The parents of these young boys were initially opposed to the idea of cricket as they ...
