Mininum overs allowed in a T20 is 5/5 and 20/20 in an ODI.

Quite dead. But if you put everything in, something good for the bowlers may come out of it.

[WI4EVER]

As for Barbados' team.

Look out for:

Ryan Hinds - Top regional all-rounder
Kirk Edwards - Scored lots of runs for the A team.
Dale RIchards - Agressive opening bat, made a 60something vs Bangladesh before
Jason Holder - Tall bowler, memories of Joel Garner

I agree, but who then? Atleast he can prevent a collapse and rotate strikes, something we need at times in every format of the game.

The anticipation is too much to handle. I think I'm going to throw up.

let's stick to T20 for now, shall we? in test and odis the baita indoor is legend no doubt but when it comes to t20 he sucks, his pathetic drop catches costs us the match against India, so kick the indoor out and get a lomba pola behind the stumps

So Players need to score in 4s and 6s in T20? Goes to show how well you understand cricket at all. The primary reason players get out in T20 in because they don't rotate the strike enough. A player can score at SR of 120-130 with only sharp running and bad balls will come inevitably which can be hit for four. This makes a strike rate of 140-150 with only sensible batting. This is the difference between cricket and baseball. Power is not requisite for cricket. And you think a Lomba pola like Johurul will do any better behind the stumps?

Ekbare Hak kotha.
Cricketers, specially Bangladeshis misread the game totally. A single every delivery gives you 120 runs, plus 5 extras, and unless the opponent is using a bowling machine there will be one bad delivery in every 2 overs. Which means at least 10 boundaries, total score will be around 160. But Bangladeshis tend go out there and start boom boom from the word go
