Yes, putting a good first-class system in place is part of a long term plan. Even if it happened this year, it won't start untill after the our tour to Australia, so it won't make any difference to that. Doorbin, I admire your optimism. But I think we have to 1) be realistic and 2) take a longer term approach. Bangladesh will not beat Australia. If it happened, I think we will all get to go to Vienna at Shubho's expense, but I dont think any of us are expecting to see Vienna anytime soon. Our cricketing fortunes will not turn around from losing to Canada to beating Australia in five months. However, if we do sort things out, I am sure we can be a cricketing force sooner than some would like to think.

As far as my first class proposal, don't worry, I've already sent it to the enquiry committee for them to have a look at it.
