Just realised Al Amin played 4 international innings in total (3 test + 1 T20s) and is yet to be dismissed! Our next Ashraful?

Actually he is not bad based on whatver we have seen bits abd peices of hois batting. He should have bat before Robiul and Rubel. Definetely before Rubel.

No excuses, I lost sleep watching Mahela and company piling on the runs on day 3, hoping that ANgelo would make a declaration when the lead was just over 200, and when the declaration came, and we had our times to bat, we were not playing test cricket (reminiscent of times when Bangladesh team was a house of cards back in early 2000s.) they really needed to apply themselves when batting. The only person who looked like he wanted to be at the crease was Marshal Ayub. He IS the smartest player in the team. (This analysis of mine came when he was bowling.) He is the coolest guy on that team. Final thought is the umpiring, most of the decisions went in favor of the Sri Lankan (This is the furthest I'll go regarding umpiring). Keep your heads up guys, win some lose some (OR DRAW some)

Al amin looks like a good young lad. Always has a smile on his face. In.my estimation the best best of the three fast bowlers used in the match (barring that Steven Finn moment)
