my fellow sufferers of Bangladesh cricket, it is now 9.45 Monday evening in London, and already my heart is beating faster than usual and as always, like all of you (well maybe not ALL, but most of you) against all logic and common sense, against all the odds, refusing to aknowledge what my head is saying and only listening to my heart, i am expecting the unexepected and hoping and praying for that maiden test win.
PLEASE, PLEASE PLEASE can we have a win.
As there is no tv coverage available here, i will be going to sleep and hoping to wake up around 7/8 am tomorow morning to see that my beloved Bangladesh are in a real strong position.
Before leaving this forum for 2night, i would like to say...
HE ALLAH PAK PORVODIKHAR, THUMI AMRA GHARIB BANGALIDHERE DOYA KORO EBONG AMADHER BATSMEN DER HATHE SHOKTHI DOW, ODHER KE BHUDDI DOW, GIAN DOW, ORA JENO SILLY SHOTS NA KHELE.
Fellow suferrers, please join me in this prayer if you wish as i do not feel that we will get a win without any divine intervention.

All of us, the BD fans are worried about our batting performance. As it appears from the media, we can find the following main reasons of failure as stated by our opponent players:
1. Lack of patience. (Both Ashraf and Nafees have confessed for not being patient as the reason for their out)
2. Being overawed by the top international teams.
Some NZ players have told that there is not much defect in our batting technique except wrong selection of the ball.
That means if our boys can be patient while batting, they are sure to do better in any test including today's.
The second important thing is; they should not get scared by someone (like Vettori), as they did earlier against Danesh Kaneria.
I would like to see our batters be a little aggressive against the spin so that they will not try to so many "silly fielders" and knockout our batters psychologically.

Even though my rational being doesn't allow to believe in any spiritual miracles, I would still echo, "Aamin Summa Aamin".

I seem to have forgotten Enamul Haque Jr's bowling style. Is he SLA also? Are we playing 3 SLAs?

Damn I havent watched cricket for so long its frustrating.

yea, as far as i know enam is also an SLA...we may be playing 3 SLAs for the first time in our history...i think we should anything is better than tareq (who should play in the ODIs)

[Die_Hard_Aussie_Fan]

if BD loses 1 wicket b4 scoring 10 runs...they shud send in a tail ender...seriously...they have etter resistance in bad situations...just check the score card...if they can stick around for 15 overs scoring 5 runs, it'll be totally worth it as it'll not only hault teh collapse, but alos tire up the owlers...Batsmen need to score 300+...no alternative to dat

[feisal]

mr. deshpremi,

I liked your caveats. But let me say this: jei din amra jitbo, it WILL be against all odds. like the one against pakistan...

[Die_Hard_Aussie_Fan]

I'm really concerned abt Aftab & Nafis...beshi matha gorom...and 2 tai top order...jodi khali matha thanda koira ektu khelto...

[feisal]

By the way, prothom alo te dekhlam. Kapali playing... no three spinners..but enamul will play. Mushfiqe will defintely play as thre is no other seamer. Manjurul Rana will miss out.

ammen, summa ameen

Bangladesh crciket team has two lagging from other cricket nation,

1. Lack of strike bowlers, I mean we have only rafique but other countries have 3 to 4 strike bowler who have capability to strike.

2. Out batsman are not capable to take singles. Almost all batsman try to stroke for 4 .

If we overcome this two obstacles then we can win test in nearfuture.
