This has been very good so far from Bangladesh.

If Bangladesh don't win this then it'll be a choke. Should win this easily. Windies have given up.
Shakib is such a boss.

Go Shakib
Beautiful innings by Shakib.
Player of the tournament so far?
Player of the tournament so far?
Yup.
Just heard that he's the number one ranked all rounder. He's showing it at the biggest stage now.
What a fecking innings. What a chase.
This is how you chase 300+ down.
They've chased this down so far with ease.
So composed, really impressive.

Shakib should have started batting at 3 about a decade ago. Wasted so many years at 5.
Yes but Windies have just given up. Heard someone mention in cricbuzz this may very well be one of the worst bowling performance in this tournament.
Windies gave up about 6 or 7 overs into the England innings too.
Seems like only Bangladesh, Ireland and Sri Lanka know how to do it in world cups.
23 extras 
Rameez Raja made a very good point in relation to both Pakistan and Westindies unpredictability tag. It's not some kind of an achievement to carry that tag, in fact it is a negative thing that you are unpredictable team. I feel both Windies and Pak started to enjoy having this tag.
The entire West Indies bowling plan seems to consist of bang it in short.
Gabriel is bad
Their abandoned match came against Sri Lanka. Really unfortunate
Anyone sensing a Bangladesh win against Pakistan?
I hope they get into the top 4.
Yeah it was. If they'd won that they'd have a chance of the semis, but 3 of their last 4 matches are against India, Australia and Pakistan. Will probably need results in 2 of those to get through.
I think it's quite a decent comment, especially in relation with West Indies.
And to make it worse NZ got a point against India.
Despite Windies giving up completely in last hour this is some chase by Babgladesh.
WI shouldn't get discouraged by this. This group has some potentially very good players.. they just need to switch off from T20 mode, realize the quality at this level is more than the average T20 league.
The core team is the best WI have had in the last 5-8 years.

They could've got close to 400 here if they needed to. Great batting mixed with poor bowling.
Bangladesh win or lose always appear as they want to win. It's not all about natural talent.
Great batting by Bangladesh/Shakib.
They're going to chase 320 in 42 overs - that is unbelievable.
Fantastic chase from Bangladesh. Really composed & in control, Shakib superb again.
Huge win for Bangladesh. Windies are all but done now. It could have been so different had they beaten Australia.
We were boss
Thank you Liton! It was an absolute travesty he wasn't in the starting 11 since the beginning.
Pity he was only 4 short of his 100. Great innings by them both.
Cricket, bloody hell
Not an upset - they're just a better team
This quote has always bothered me a little because cricket is a sport where comebacks are even more unbelievable (and technically always possible), compared to football.
This game wasn't a comeback either. Bangladesh steam rolled them.
Who was it that said what's the point of Bangladesh saying they were shite in the first WC they played and are shite still?
I'd let you hazard a guess
Hopes inning killed WI. If he didn't stick around so much the likes of Pooran & Hetymer wouldn't have had to go beserk and would've scored at a decent pace.
His slow play and inability to rotate the strike piled on pressure on the rest of the team, and they reached a good inspite of him.
