[Zane]

Did bangladesh ever loose a toss in asia cup 2012? No fair ...

And can someone teach mishbab to smile a bit ...

[Ahson Afzal]

Toss: Bangladesh have won the toss, huge cheers, and have unsurprisingly decided to bowl. They are fielding the same team, Mushfiqur says Pakistan will be under pressure since they're playing Bangladesh in the final for the first time. Sarfraz Ahmed comes back for Wahab Riaz, that's the only change for Pakistan.

They will, there's no doubt about that

[chotadhoni]

Harega bhai harega _______________ harega

[Fawad2010]

Must get to 300 tonight, anything under is unsafe under lights

[Areesh]

I hope this batting second policy of BD would backfire today.

[PAQS43]

The toss has given a huge advantage to Bangladesh.

[Amar786]

There's tremendous interest around the world for this match, the Bangladeshi diaspora is well spread out. Sunil Gavaskar on the pitch report says the track is the same as the one used in the game between India and Pakistan, where India chased down 320-odd. Plenty of runs in this, but Gavaskar reckons that this, being a pressure game, may not produce such monumental scores.

Omg I already see shoulders dropping. Arey match to shuru hono do lol

[x-man]

No die hard supporting today! They are our Brothers!

[JibranAnsari]

BD get ready for some absolute thrashing. I know they won't even get close to the total.

[NJamal]

Pakistan should score at least 400 on this pitch.

[PAQS43]

Pakistan should score at least 400 on this pitch.

lol . Even 350 are more than enough.But the question is whether they will be able to get even 300 or not.

[sada90]

Bangladesh have won the toss and elected to field first

[NJamal]

I sincerely hope so....

[Zeeraq]

Pakistan should score 500 Today .

[hasanmehmoodkhan]

hammad azam 50 this game

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan should aim to be no loss by 10th over and then push on from there.

[talha3]

Mashrafe bowling at 87mph?!!? Really?!

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need Hamad to be batting up the order.

[NJamal]

Mortaza to open the bowling for Bangla.

[Justcrazy]

Solid start is a must

[Justcrazy]

Anything less that 270 .... Pakistan would be in trouble.

[NJamal]

Pakistan on its way

Bangladesh bowling first, pretty much expected tbh.

[Zeeraq]

[Justcrazy]

[sada90]

Bangladeshi crowd dead silence ... i hate it ..

[Bashira_taeli]

Why cant the Bengalis sit still. Running around the sight screen messing with our batsmen

[NJamal]

by Hafeez

[Krishnan]

Bangladesh have a chance to win if their top order batting stays for 10 overs without a wicket.otherwise ajmal will finish it all soon

[PAQS43]

except for the four Hossain has bowled well.

[NJamal]

14/0 after 2 overs

[Justcrazy]

15 / 0

[Justcrazy]

16 after 3 overs

[NJamal]

Good over by Mortaza, 16/0 after 3 overs

[Justcrazy]

Steady start that is what is needed...... wickets in hand later can be decisive.

[ads101]

what is this tuk tukking by hafeez. Look to time the ball and go for the singles. Don't just wait for the boundary.

[sada90]

close call ...
it looked very close

[LegendAli]

oh my that was out, our chance

[PAQS43]

Is it a slow pitch , Why are they bowling so slowly or has it been like this throughout the tournament.

[Justcrazy]

Get a solid start and Push up the order ........ and ask him to give a spanking to bowlesr
