Thank you SRI LANKA!
I know this has been a series we want to forget as quickly as we can but wanted to acknowledge our friends The Srilankan Cricket Board, Authorities and The Team for visiting Bangladesh at a time when a cancelled tour might have seriously hampered us and future tours. We would like to express our gratitude and hope you have enjoyed our hospitality.
PS: On field kindness hopefully ends right here and you will see a different Bangladesh side in the Asia Cup!

Thanks to them for not only coming to Bangladesh but also bringing our players to the ground and showing them still a long way to go before they actually call themselves tiger at home !
It was much needed reality check for our players and team management.

The কি হনু রে! disease might be gone. At least temporarily, I hope.

This was a much needed reality check for the high school boys.
After the NZ wash, which was probably more luck than skill and performance, we know now miracle still happens. Anyone disagree, let me hear your side of the fairy tale.
Get ready for another shocker, Afg is licking their finger to take us on.

You know if it was not Srilanka, Bangladesh would have been the other Asian giant playing cricket that long.

It was a tour that showed how much behind we are compared to SL. Even though they have slipped in the past few years, fact is this team is much better than us. It's time we accept that. This is a team that wins Tests on a regular basis which we can't even dream of right now.
The only team we can beat in Tests is Zimbabwe and in ODIs at home we can beat Zim, NZ, and WI. We might win the odd game against the other sides but we'll likely lose most matches with the others even at home. Away from home, we'd lose to NZ and WI.
Unless we make vast changes to our domestic system, we'll continue to see slow progress.
