Exactly. I can understand this height debate if he was a tearaway fast bowler. As far as batting goes height has absolutely nothing to do with it. Ask Miandad, Gavasker, Tendulkar, Aravinda and most recently the Little Big PheMo.
But, as far as keeping goes, being of a short stature is a big advantage when keeping to the spinners -especially, in the sub-continent. So, its all good for Bangladesh.
Back to Litton, He needs a couple of big scores in the Super League matches to give the selectors a headache. In todays big game, unfortunately, didn't get a score.
