At number 7, he won't need to get big scores because we have 4 senior cricketers who can set the base till 45th.

As for Mithun, the scorecard reads half century but from what I have seen he looked clueless against pace bowling. Not convinced at all.
His comment not mine. Translating so may lose the essence but:

"All balls are 4 or 6 ball if you can play the right shot." That was his mentality before selling his country. If his attitude and integrity didn't change, God help us. One bad apple is all needed to give away all the gains we did in the last 5 years. That one bad apple influences other innocent ones if not reborn. (See certain country on the west side of Ind.) That's why I don't want them to play in our league as well (All of them). He brings too big a baggage for me.
