 April 5, 2014   R K Gupta

, ,

In their semifinal game against the West Indies, Sri Lanka won the toss and opted to bat first for two reasons. One the West Indies are not good chasers if the score is beyond 150, due to their poor running between the wickets; and two if the forecast for bad weather came true, then usually […]

Sunday & Monday Results See India, South Africa and Sri Lanka Reach Semifinals

 April 1, 2014   R K Gupta

, , , , ,

Last four league games were a curious mix of lop-sided affairs, dead rubbers, unexpected losses and an apt demonstration of spin bowling. While no one expected Bangladesh to beat Pakistan, their meek submission on March 30 was a big disappointment to home fans. Same day, the India-Australia match strangely became a no-contest game at the […]

It was a great Thursday for cricket lovers at Zahur Ahmed Chaudhury Stadium in Bangladesh’s port city of Chittagong.

Tale of Two Games at Chittagong – A Heart-Stopper & A Lop-Sided Affair

 March 25, 2014   R K Gupta

, , ,

It seemed odd that JP Duminy was chosen as the player-of-the-match at the end of an absolute thriller between New Zealand and South Africa at Chittagong on March 24, 2014.
