Mashrafe Mortaza - The next great fast bowler?

Originally uploaded by bipugd.

Mashrafe Mortaza could be the next great fast bowler in international cricket


Mashrafe Mortaza typifies the spirit of the Bangladesh cricket team. Mashrafe Mortaza is Bangladesh cricket's speedster on par with the best of the world's fast bowlers on one day and an average class bowler on another.


Mashrafe Mortaza will prize his hostile opening spell against the Indian cricket team


Mashrafe Mortaza's opening spell against the Indian cricket team set the tone for the spirited performance of the Bangladesh cricket team in the World cup cricket series.2007 in the Caribbean


Mashrafe Mortaza bowled a powerful spell and had Uthappa and Ganguly on the backfoot and struggling right from the first over and this lifted the spirit of the Bangladesh cricket team who began to believe that they could win against the Indian cricket team


Mashrafe Mortaza has a good chance against the Indian cricket team in the Indian cricket team's Bangladesh tour


Mashrafe Mortaza may find it difficult to bowl extremely hostile spells in the slower pitches of Bangladesh. The Indian tour of Bangladesh is a good opportunity for Mashrafe Mortaza to cement his place in the Bangladesh cricket team and learn to bowl well on slower unresponsive pitches

Mashrafe Mortaza and Mohammed Asif form the hope for the Asian subcontinent's revival

Adam Gilchrist-Nice guys sometimes finish first


Adam Gilchrist was the force behind the Australian cricket team's win in the cricket World cup,2007 in the Caribbean.

Amazingly,Gilchrist or Gilly, seems to lack the aggression characterised by the Australian cricket team.In fact, Gilchrist does certain amazingly ancient gentlemanly things, such as "walking",if Gilchrist thinks he is out, even before the umpire comes up with his decision.

The Sri Lankan cricket bowlers however,did not find anything nice about Gilchrist's batting as he thrashed the Sri Lankan cricket bowlers to all corners of Barbados.

Three cheers to Adam Gilchrist on his matchwinning knock at the cricket World cup finals against Sri Lanka

Australian cricket team may not be liked, but may be the best ever


The Australian cricket team lifts the cricket World cup,2007


The Australian cricket team for the cricket World cup, may not have been liked,but is probably the best ever cricket team to have played in the cricket World cup






Three cheers for the Australian cricket team-easily the best cricket team in the cricket World cup,2007

World cup cricket final-Gilchrist secures Australian win


Australia Vs Sri Lanka World cup cricket final- Gilchrist's finals


The Australia Vs Sri Lanka World cup cricket finals will be forever remembered for Gilchrist's memorable performance.The Australia Vs Sri Lanka World cup finals was reduced to a no-contest as Gilchrist brutally demolished the Sri Lankan cricket bowlers

Gilchrist's hitting in Australia Vs Sri Lankan World cup cricket finals reminded one of Viv Richards


The brutal batting by Gilchrist in the Australia Vs Sri Lanka World cup finals reminded one of the great Viv Richards in the 1979 cricket finals.Gilchrist hit eight sixes in his knock of 149 as he single handedly demolished the Sri Lankan cricket team


Even Muralitharan could not stop Gilchrist in Australia Vs Sri Lanka World cup cricket finals


The real contest of the World cup cricket finals in Bridgetown was the battle between Muralitharan and his quest to stop the rampaging Gilchrist


But, Gilchrist stamped his authority in the Australia Vs Sri Lanka World cup cricket finals by even taking care of Muralitharan and his doosras


Gilchrist's success in the Australia Vs Sri Lanka World cup cricket finals suggests nice guys still have a chance


Gilchrist is unlike the traditional Aussie cricketer in the Australia Vs Sri Lanka World cup finals. Gilchrist believes in the gentlemanly tradition of "walking" , if he thinks he is out and doesn't really abuse the cricket opposition


The Australia Vs Sri Lanka World cup finals proves that its not all about Australia's aggression that makes them win-its sheer talent in players like Gilchrist and Mcgrath

Sri Lankan cricket win in World cup predicted two months ago


GameCricket.com predicted a win for Sri Lankan cricket in the cricket World cup two months back


Its time to crow, even if the Sri Lankan cricket team does not win the cricket World cup,2007. The very fact that the Sri Lankan cricket team has proved successfully that the Sri Lankans are among the two best cricket teams in the cricket
world proved that our statistical cricket results prediction system works


How does GameCricket.com always predict cricket match results successfully?


GameCricket.com uses a statistical technique based on one on one encounters in international cricket matches to predict the results of cricket matches. Statistics never lies and therein lies the secret of our cricket match predictor algorithms


Our most successful predictions in this cricket World cup- We predicted that the Indian cricket team could lose to the Bangladesh cricket team

Labels: , , , , , , , ,

Sri Lanka Vs Australia World cup cricket finals,Sri Lanka could upset Australia


Sri Lanka Vs Australia World cup cricket finals-Sri Lanka could upset Australian cricket team


In the Sri Lanka Vs Australia World cup cricket finals,the Sri Lankan cricket team can definitely upset the Australian cricket team


The Sri Lankan cricket team has more talent and variety than the Australian cricket team in this Sri Lanka Vs Australia World cup cricket finals at Bridgetown


The outcome of the Sri Lanka Vs Australia World cup cricket finals could depend on the Barbados pitch


The Sri Lanka Vs Australia World cup cricket finals will hinge on the Barbados cricket pitch which has traditionally helped fast bowlers.
Despite the bravado of the Sri Lankan cricket team players, the Australian cricket team is better at bowling and batting on a seaming wicket.


The Sri Lanka Vs Australia World cup cricket finals could thus depend on the true nature of the current relaid Barbados cricket pitch,
- some pitch doctors have claimed that the particular pitch on which the Sri Lanka Vs Australia World cup
cricket finals will be played is a real belter and will not aid pace bowling to the extent expected


The Sri Lanka Vs Australia World cup cricket final at Barbados sees an amazingly well balanced Sri Lankan team


The Sri Lankan cricket team for the Sri Lanka Vs Australia World cup finals has a perfect balance of veterans like Jayasurya and youngsters like
Tharanga, classical spin bowlers like Muralitharan and seam experts like Vaas,speedsters like Malinga and dodgy batters like
Sangakarra.


The Sri Lankan cricket team is definitely a more balanced cricket team than the Australian cricket team for the
Sri Lanka Vs Australia World cup cricket finals


A world cup finals win for the Sri Lankan cricket team Vs Australia will be the best farewell for Jayasurya and Muralitharan

Sri Lanka Vs New Zealand World cup cricket 2007-Sri Lanka win


Sri Lanka vs New Zealand World cup cricket 2007-Slow pitch leads to Sri Lanka win


The Sri Lankan cricket team have won the World cup 2007 seminfinals Vs New Zealand to deservedly reach the finals. The key factors that led to a win for Sri Lankan cricket over New Zealand in the World cup semi-finals



  • The Sri Lanka Vs New Zealand Jamaica World cup cricket semifinals had a slow pitch that aided spinners. The so-called pitch pundits for the Sri Lanka Vs New Zealand World cup cricket seminfinals were absolutely wrong as the pitch aided spinners rather than pacers

  • Muralitharan made the pitch look like a minefield during the Sri Lanka Vs New Zealand cricket match

  • The Sri Lanka Vs New Zealand semifinals will be remembered for Jayewardene's incredible match winning knock-True captains lead from the front!

  • Upul Tharanga,who surprised everyone in the Sri Lanka Vs New Zealand World cup 2007 semifinals,by returning to form at the crucial time

  • The Sri Lankan captain and selectors for sticking to a long term plan for creating a world class cricket team. Despite failures in the Sri Lankan cricket team, which in one series, even lost 1-6 to the Indian cricket team, the Sri Lankan cricket selectors persisted with a consistent batting lineup and a long term plan


Three cheers for the Sri Lankan cricket team for beating New Zealand in the Sri Lanka Vs New Zealand World cup cricket 2007 semifinals

Sri Lanka Vs New Zealand World cup cricket semifinals predictions


Sri Lanka Vs New Zealand World cup cricket semifinals match predictions


Our statistical analysis of the Sri Lanka Vs New Zealand World cup cricket semifinals match suggests that the New Zealand cricket team are the favorites for the Sri Lanka Vs New Zealand World cup cricket semifinal match


Surprised by our contrarian predictions for the Sri Lanka Vs New Zealand cricket match? You shouldnt be surprised as our cricket predictions are based on actual statistical simulations of one-on-one encounters between the Sri Lankan and New Zealand cricket teams such as the Muralitharan Vs Fleming encounter, the Bond Vs Jayasurya encounter and so on


Sri Lanka Vs New Zealand World cup cricket semifinals- The Jamaica pitch will decide the outcome


The Jamaica pitch for the Sri Lanka Vs New Zealand cricket semifinals will decide the result of the Sri Lanka Vs New Zealand cricket match


In case the Jamaica pitch for the Sri Lanka Vs New Zealand cricket match aids spin, Muralitharan,Dilshan and Jayasurya have an opportunity to dominate the Sri Lanka Vs New Zealand world cup cricket semifinals. In case the Jamaica pitch for the Sri Lanka Vs New Zealand cricket encounter aids pace,bounce and seam, Shane Bond can make his ten overs for the New Zealand cricket team seem like a really long time for the Sri Lankan cricket batsmen


Current indications suggest that Shane Bond could have a serious role to play in the Sri Lanka Vs New Zealand World cup cricket match since the Jamaica cricket pitch is expected to aid a little pace and bounce.


Malinga,Vaas and Mahroof will also be looking forward to a fast wicket for the New Zealand Vs Sri Lanka cricket semifinals- and this should make for an exciting cricket match

Australia Vs New Zealand Super Eights cricket match at the World cup 2007


Australia win predicted in Australia Vs New Zealand Super Eights World cup cricket match


The Australian cricket team is set to win the Australia Vs New Zealand Super Eights cricket match. The Australia Vs New Zealand cricket match will miss the best bowler of the cricket World cup, as Shane Bond has been rested


New Zealand cricket team as good as Australia with Bond, half as good without Bond


Individual performances do determine the success of any cricket team, and Shane Bond is an incredible bowler for the New Zealand cricket team. Shane Bond is very easily the best bowler in this cricket World cup and the Australia Vs New Zealand Super Eights cricket match is set to lose its entire competitiveness with the absence of Shane Bond from the New Zealand cricket team


Our predictions for the Australia Vs New Zealand World cup cricket match- an easy win for the Australian cricket team

West Indies Vs Bangladesh live World cup cricket match,2007


West Indies favorites for West Indies Vs Bangladesh cricket match in World cup,2007


The West Indies cricket team is expected to win the West Indies Vs Bangladesh Super Eights World cup cricket match today. No doubt the West Indies cricket team is a demoralised cricket team due to the string of defeats they have suffered, but the West Indies cricket team should at least beat the Bangladesh cricket team


West Indies cricket at the crossroads


The West Indies cricket team is in the doldrums with Brian Lara also announcing his retirement from one day international cricket. Brian Lara may be a disappointed man, he is sure to sign off on a good note by defeating the Bangladesh cricket team


The West Indies cricket batsmen are better at playing spin bowling


The West Indies cricket team have the ability to tackle the Bangladesh cricket spinners better than the South African cricket team.Players like Ramnaresh Sarwan and Lara can toy with the Bangladesh cricket spinners and negate the effectiveness of Razzaq and Rafique


A large score from Gayle is also due and the West Indies Vs Bangladesh live cricket match is likely to see a huge score from this power hitter

Sri Lankan cricket team thrashing Ireland in World cup cricket 2007


The Sri Lankan cricket team is thrashing the Ireland cricket team in World cup cricket 2007 match


The Ireland cricket team was bowled out for just 77 runs as Mahroof and Muralitharan made a mockery of the Irish cricket team's pretensions. Muralitharan's bowling to the Irish cricket team was a sight to watch, as the Irish cricket batsmen was subjected to some embarrassing dismissals


The Sri Lankan cricket team seem intent on finishing the target within 10 overs


Jayasurya and Jayawardene are currently toying with the Irish bowlers and the Sri Lankan cricket team seem set at a canter against Ireland

Cricket-Greg Chappell's email to his wife leaked to media?


Greg Chappell's email to his wife may have been leaked to media,per sources


A source close to the Indian coach has informed segments of the media that one of Greg Chappell's emails to his wife may have been leaked to the media. Some sources,close to the coach, claim that the leak of the email may be as a result of a habit of sending important confidential emails to his media friends,rather than any deliberate leak of the email to the Indian media


The email leak controversy rages and is expected to escalate the current controversy


Who else could have leaked this email? Our sources close to the coach also point out the coach himself is unlikely to have leaked the email, since he is the epitome of sincerity. In fact, the sources suggest that a coach who has not made a single mistake in his reign as Indian cricket coach (it was always someone else's mistake) could not have made this simple blunder


In fact, this email leak could be attributed to a number of sources such as the Indian Internet services provider or certain search engine such as Google,acting in collusion with certain senior members of the Indian cricket team


Greg's brother Ian Chappell also could not be reached- per our sources close to the coach, Ian may have been busy calling for other Indian senior cricketers to retire,acting in isolation and with absolutely no prodding from the Indian cricket coach


Please take this blog post in the spirit of April Fool's day and definitely not take it seriously (despite what our sources close to the Indian cricket team say)

Bangladesh Vs Australia World cup cricket- Rafique and Mortaza need to come to the party


Bangladesh Vs Australia World cup Super Eights cricket match


Not many people think that the Bangladesh cricket team can win the Bangladesh Vs Australia one day international cricket match. But the Bangladesh cricket team has a chance of winning the match against Australia if they play their "A" game.

The Bangladesh cricket team need to bowl thirty overs of spin


The only chance for the Bangladesh cricket team is the ability of their spinners,Rafique and Razzaq. Captain Habibul Bashar needs to use spinners for at least thirty overs in the Super Eights World cup cricket match against the Australian cricket team


With due respect to Mashrafe Mortaza and the other Bangladesh seamers- the Australian cricket team,especially Gilchrist and Hayden are probably getting prepared to hit Mortaza out of the attack right now


Mohammed Ashraful needs to bat up the order in Bangladesh Vs Australia World cup Super Eights cricket match


Mohammed Ashraful's century against the Australian cricket team had set up the Bangladesh cricket team's only win against Australia. To win against Australia, bold moves are needed and Bangladesh would do well to show off their bold intentions by pushing Ashraful up the order


In summary,the Bangladesh cricket team have a chance against the Australian cricket team if they employ bold tactics rather than being on the defensive

Cricket World cup shocker: India and Pakistan out of World cup cricket?


India and Pakistan are on the brink of being out of the World cup cricket tournament


The Indian cricket team has made 191 all out against the unfancied Bangladesh cricket team in the Group match of the cricket World cup


The Indian cricket team struggled on the slow pitch at Trinidad against both the pacemen such as Mortaza and spinners such as Rafique. The Indian cricket team seemed tentative and approached the cricket ball with undue respect and now find themselves with a small total to defend on a reasonably good pitch


Pakistan cricket team struggles against Ireland on a seamy pitch


The Pakistan cricket team is definitely on the brink of the biggest cricket disaster in their history - The Pakistan cricket team is now struggling at 130/9 off 43 overs against lowly Ireland, who have bowled like champions


The Pakistan cricket team however still has a chance in this key World cup cricket match since the pitch is seamer friendly and Umar Gul and Rao Iftikar could wreck havoc with the Ireland cricket team


World cup cricket 2007- Will the favored Pakistan and Indian cricket teams crash out of the cricket World cup?

Incredible,England cricket team can win the cricket World cup


England cricket team can win the cricket World cup in the West Indies

The England cricket team can win the cricket World cup. Surprised? Here are 3 reasons why the England cricket team is one of the favorites to win the cricket World cup in the West Indies


England cricket team has a surfeit of allrounders for the World cup cricket tournament

The World cup cricket tournament has a common characteristic - The winning World cup cricket teams have truly great allrounders.


The current England cricket team has two really good allrounders in Andrew Flintoff and Collingwood. Flintoff is of course, the England cricket team's key player and one of the best allrounders in the cricketing world today and Collingwood has recently struck form for the England cricket team


England cricket team in a team in great form

The England cricket team has recently ended the Australian cricket tour in great form beating the Australian cricket team in the triseries one day international series,just before the cricket World cup.

Past World cup series have shown that the World cup cricket tournament is an extremely fickle tournament and form definitely matters-There isnt much time to recover from bad form and world cricket teams need to build the winning habit within a span of one or two months during the world cup cricket tournament


The England cricket team has a great combination in the cricket World cup

The England cricket team has good batsmen, good fast bowlers, a classy spinner and a couple of good allrounders

The England cricket team players like Flintoff have great potential and Flintoff is just one match away from making this 'Freddie's World cup' cricket tournament


In summary,GameCricket.com thinks that the England cricket team has a great chance of winning the World cup cricket tournament

Did Mohammed Asif and Shoaib Akhtar take drugs?


Did Mohammed Asif and Shoaib Akhtar take drugs?


Mohammed Asif and Shoaib Akhtar will not play the cricket World cup,2007.The official Pakistan board alibi is that Mohammed Asif and Shoaib Akhtar are injured and cannot make it to the cricket World cup


Mohammed Asif and Shoaib Akhtar injured at the same time?


Talk about coincidence!The Pakistan cricket board claim that Mohammed Asif and Shoaib Akhtar are injured and cannot play a single match of the cricket World cup


When players like Oram talk about amputating their finger in order to play the cricket World cup, the excuse of Mohammed Asif and Shoaib Akhtar seems pretty lame


Akhtar and Asif-How widespread is drug taking by international cricketers like Shoaib Akhtar and Mohammed Asif?



We are not naive enough to pretend that Akhtar and Asif are the only drug takers- Cricket is definitely another endurance sport that probably has quite a few international sportsmen to enhance performance,but cricket authorities such as the ICC do not seem to be seriously looking at curbing this drug taking menace.
Every World cup,a popular cricketer is made a scapegoat,last time it was Shane Warne and this time its the turn of Mohammed Asif and Shoaib Akhtar


What about the matching fixing practice?.. Well, the ICC is not taking this menace seriously either

Australian cricket on the decline?


Australian cricket team on the decline?


The Australian cricket team has lost the number 1 position in world cricket. Recently, the Australian cricket team has lost three consecutive one day international cricket matches to the England cricket team and two one day international cricket matches to the New Zealand cricket team


Australian cricket team has too many old players?


Suggesting that the Australian cricket team has too many oldies is the most ridiculous argument for the reasons the Australian cricket team is on the decline


The Australian cricket team should take succour in the return and success of Ganguly and other so-called old guys in the Indian cricket team. The Australian cricket board knows that there is no substitute to a winning cricket combination and it would be stupid to remove the few
"old" (read: experienced ) players left in the Australia


The Australian cricket team misses Warne,Martyn and a super fit McGrath


The Australian cricket team obviously misses Warne and Martyn,but what the Australian cricket team really misses is a really fit McGrath to inspire fear in the opposition batsmen.While McGrath is set to play his last cricket series in the cricket World cup for the Australian cricket team, McGrath needs to bowl with the same old venom- glimpses of which were seen in the recent Ashes cricket test series


In summary, the Australian cricket team may be on the decline,but has the mental strength to bounce back in the cricket world cup

England will win the cricket World cup!


England cricket team may win the cricket World cup- We reiterate England's chances


The England cricket team have done a great job of reaching the finals of the tri-nation cricket series,involving Australia and New
Zealand.The England cricket team have a good chance of winning the cricket World cup in the West Indies.


The England cricket team is well balanced and has quite a few matchwinners


The England cricket team has good batsmen in Collingwood and Bell, good bowlers in Harmison and Panesar and a great allrounder in
Andrew Flintoff.


The England cricket team has two batting matchwinners in Flintoff and Pieterson


In the England cricket team for the cricket World cup,Flintoff,Collingwood and Pieterson are key potential matchwinners who can score at more than a run a ball.Apart from Flintoff and Pieterson,the England
cricket team also has Bell and Collingwood who are currently in great form and can make an impact in the cricket World cup in the West Indies


The England cricket team needs to be more creative in their cricketing strategies


Strategy is a weak area for the England cricket team in one day international cricket matches. For example,the England cricket team needs to look
at moving either or both Flintoff and Pieterson up the order to exploit the Power Play overs.Also,Yardy is a promising find for the England cricket
team and the England cricket team need to consider having two genuine spinners in Yardy and Monty Panesar,rather than the ineffectual
Giles or Dalrymple


In summary, the England cricket team has an ideal combination for the cricket World cup, it just needs to get its confidence and strategy in place

England can win the cricket World cup in the West Indies


The England cricket team can win the cricket World cup in the West Indies


I know the thought of a demoralized England cricket team winning the World cup cricket tournament sounds incredible.But we,at GameCricket.com have concluded that England can win the cricket World cup,based on a statistical analysis of the England cricket team


The current England cricket team has skills more tuned towards one day international cricket rather than test cricket


The England cricket team is lucky to have many match-winners in their World cup cricket squad in the West Indies. Flintoff and Pieterson are two potential match-winners for the England cricket team, and both of them not only score a lot of runs but also score the runs at an incredible speed.


One of the key challenges in today's one day international cricket is the ability to push the scoring in the middle overs and players such as Flintoff and Pieterson are perfectly capable of making fast scoring happen.

Both Flintoff and Pieterson in the England cricket team,are also good players of spin bowling. The ability to play spin bowling is extremely important during the World cup cricket tournament in the West Indies,since the pitches are expected to be slow and aid spin


The England cricket team needs to sort out their strategy for the cricket world cup


The England cricket team needs to desperately rethink their strategy for the World cup cricket tournament - the England cricket team is actually quite good with batsmen like Bell,Pieterson and Vaugham, all rounders such as Collingwood and Flintoff, good fast bowlers such as Harmison and an excellent spinner in Monty Panesar


All successful one day international cricket teams for the cricket World cup ensure that their best batsmen get to play the maximum number of overs- thats why Sachin Tendulkar opens for India, Fleming and Astle play at the top of the order for New Zealand, Gilchrist opens for Australia and so on- The England cricket team needs to ensure that batsmen such as Flintoff and Pieterson play at the top of the order to ensure that they get enough overs to score runs at a fast pace


Monty Panesar is the key to the England cricket team's chances in the World cup.


The England cricket team needs to nurture Monty Panesar for the World cup cricket tournament since the West Indies cricket pitches are expected to be slow and possibly underprepared- a spinner will most likely be the man of the series for the cricket World cup and Monty Panesar could be that spinner. Yardy has also impressed with the limited chances he has got in the England cricket team and should be considered for the World cup cricket tournament in the West Indies
