Its not hatred for Mahmud!
But this whining is terrible. Rafiq bhai is right, he should have resigned, he didnt, and the board dropped him. End of discussion.
Now, did he have to have a parting shot? I mean, couldn't he leave a little more gracefully. Like saying it has been an honor to represent and lead my country in Test cricket and I wish my successor and the team all the best for the future. This question about who in Bangladesh is performing consistently is just stupid. Who cares what the others are doing, bottom line is, you don't deserve a place in the Test side so don't expect one! And plus, he was the captain, of course he should be held to a higher standard. If he hadn't realized that, I don't know what he was doing as our captain for the last 8 months.
It just irritates me that in Bangladesh, we seem to have a really hard time being graceful. Anyway, best wishes to Bashar and I hope he proves all his detractors wrong, myself included, by being an excellent leader of men.
