It's indeed hard to please everyone. Had Mushy took the decision to play SLPL n fly later there would have been 10 people here questioning his commitment as a captain.. Mushy took the right decision as a responsible captain..

How long is the flight from Sri Lanka to Trinidad, more than 48 hours really or from Bangladesh to T&T?

first game on sept 6 against Barbados!

it is rather long....one has to fly to dubai and then take a flight from there to london and then take another flight from london to the carribean and there may be more transits within the carribbean depending on where you are going..

They have a practice match on 5th and their training starts from 3rd... As a captain he doesn't want to miss those practice and training with the team !!! Right !!
