Opening post

I think this is the final Super League series coming just weeks before the Qualifiers.

Ireland still have a chance to qualify directly and send SA to the qualifier. As awesome as that result would be, it’s virtually impossible.

Bangladesh have named a full strength squad, although even their C team would have secured at 3-0 whitewash.

Ireland will be pulling Josh Little from the IPL for this series, which is good to see. If a smaller team like IRE can manage to pull players away from the IPL for important series, it bodes well for the health of the international game.

tector is brilliant as usual. what a talent

Unbelievable batting. 320 in 45 overs will take some doing.

Tector is a tremendous talent. 4 hundreds in just 30 odd innings and not just against minnows either.

Great start for Ireland. Keeping things tight and getting the wicket of Tamim. I'm not sure when he last past 50...

The really great thing with Ireland's innings was they realized its a slow outfield wtih all the rain and went the aerial route. They 16 sixes, and only 20 fours.

Solid win from BD. I really thought they had started the chase too slowly with just 15 runs off the first 5 overs, but they ended up pacing it well.

Shanto has been as consistent a #3 as Bangladesh has had in ODIs. Towhid and Mushfiqur are proving to be very fine finishers.

The form of Tamim and Liton up too remains a concern.

Shanto with his maiden ton, and is now averaging over 50 for the year of 2023 so far.

Wow what a thriller to end the short lived Super League.

Ireland snatching defeat from the jaws of victory there.

This Irish side is very good tho. Fought well in all 3 matches.

POTS should be Shanto for me. Got the runs, key breakthrough wicket with his part time offies, and also has become a gun fielder. Future captain for BD.

The youngsters stepped up in this series. Which is good see.

He bowled well especially with the new ball in the first ODI. It won't always show up in the stats. Adair is a good bowler too. Another series might see Little get the wickets.
