WOOOWW!!!


is what every Briton would have said after Windies experienced the British winds that blew them point blank. As the match made its course, Roars of Bangla Tigers (riding on Windies fate) were turned into Meows by Treadwell and Swann.  

The Beginning
In a ding-dong battle, England wasted a good start (79-1 in 11 overs) and lost its way in the middle (151-6). At that point in the match, Tigers would have been pleased to their core as they could literary see their chances brighten up. But the Britons did well to take their tally to 243 but it was not enough to win the match.

Almost lost it
England missed their strike bowlers (Little Stuart and Mr. Anderson) when Windies blasted them off for 58-0 in 8 overs. Gayle, Sammy and Russell all 3 went for the kill and almost succeeded in their motive before they were caught in the web of Spin.


Climax
21 runs needed in 52 balls with 4 wickets in hand – Turned into - 4 wickets in 11 balls conceding only 3 runs.

The real looser here were Bangladesh who were gutted by Swann in his last over. In order to stay alive they need to defeat SA which is going to be an uphill task for them.
