Australia, where art thou?

I am not being a jerk but I think we had enough of Sri Lanka and India at home. I would love to see some see saw battles with our arch nemesis The Ozzies!

Can BCB arrange it at home?

Btw, I am not saying we became world beaters overnight, it's just I am curious that against a 2900 rated Grandmaster Australia what would us 1500 would play? Feel me. No I mean really feel me.

Australia is another team we have not beaten long time, in 10 years. Also South Africa, who we haven't beaten in 8 years, these two will be coming this year. Not sure if there's any ODI'S versus the Aussies, I'm sure BCB will try to get a least 3 match ODI series there too, now that we have won the ODI series against Pakistan!

Yeah that was my point. We played them very infrequently.

They are coming in October, to play 2 Tests. No ODI though.

After hosting Saffers at July-August, we don't have any ODI series scheduled at home this year.

Next year, we will be touring Windies and NZ, and hosting England - so big challenges are coming.

^^What I find puzzling is that why are we playing 7 ODIs and only one T20I against Zimbabwe before the World T20I Cup.

T20s are useless and meanlingless for Bangladesh right now. It would be better if they choose to be a constructivist and decide to go back to the days when cricket was cricket, (Pre-T20s). Hey, Mr. Clarke decided against T20, why can't Bangladesh's players?
