Reliving One of the Best ODI spells- Stuart Binny Rattles Bangladesh Batsmen

Reliving One of the Best ODI spells- Stuart Binny Rattles Bangladesh Batsmen: Bangladesh and India are set to square off in a test match and three ODI’s, a series that starts from June 10. The last time that these two sides met in a bilateral series we saw one of the most unexpected and gobsmacking results in international cricket. Chasing 105 runs in 300 balls is probably one of the easiest things to do as a batsman on the cricket pitch. As world class batsmen it should be a cake walk or a stroll in the park for them.

But not if you are Bangladesh cricket team. In what was one of the most dramatic cricket matches, India batting first posted a paltry 105 runs on the board. All the experts analyzing the game in the studio, the commentators everyone obviously predicted an easy win for the Bangladeshis, but what turned out in the end was shocking. The Bangladeshi batsmen stuttered and staggered and played non-chalantly to the Mirpur fans’ dismay.

At one stage they were 39-2, but once Indian all-rounder Stuart Binny came on to bowl, he changed the course of the game upside down and silenced the crowd. His helpless victims were Mohammed Mithun, Mushfiqur Rahim, Mahmudullah, Mortaza, Nasir and Al Amin. Whatever Binny touched turned into gold in that match and he ran through the opposition with incredible virtuosity and picked up 6 wickets giving away just 4 runs. It is the best ever spell by an Indian bowler in ODI’s.

This spell reminded everyone of Stuart’s father the legend Rogger Binny who was known for his bowling and all-round skills around the world. And the Jr. Binny by that time had lot to prove, including the merit of his selection. The pitch had some help for the seamers and he managed to extract every bit out of it, swinging the ball, he rather swung the game in India’s favor.
