According to this writer, Bangladesh has had only 2 players averaging 30 or more in test cricket. WRONG. 5 players from Bangladesh have an average of 30 or more and 3 more have their averages above 29. Did not do his homework did he?
...
In addition to that, the writer was very clever in limiting the average for bowlers to 39 and adding that only Shakib has an average below 39. Well, still he is WRONG. 5 bowlers from Bangladesh average below 39. And if 10 wickets or more are taken into account, still there are 2 bowlers who fit into that criteria. And when I said, the author was clever with picking bowlers averaging 39 or below I meant: 4 bowlers average between 39.01 and 42 and they have picked significant amount of wickets.
...
It's amazing how someone who does not get his stats right writes for a newspaper as big as The Telegraph.
