That's not nice. Compared to the G8 teams we are losers as well then, no?

bangla-red · #8 January 3, 2009, 02:58 PM

No, we're just losers full-stop.

al Furqaan · #9 January 3, 2009, 06:46 PM

no rasel, damn.

but we shoulnd't need him to hammer zimbabwe in all 4 matches, especially at home.

shabbir · #10 January 3, 2009, 10:20 PM

Recently there bowling has improved a lot i,they have two quality odi spinner price and prosper.They are very economical.

nzfan · #11 January 3, 2009, 10:34 PM

Watch out for Rainsford and Mupariwa, they troubled the Sri Lankan batsmen quite a bit, jayawardne couldnt get anything from the series. Don't worry about mijanur... I think he might be a child,

Yasin. · #12 January 4, 2009, 02:06 AM

Miraz, thanks for the fixture. Can you give us the timings of the above mentioned games.

RazabQ · #13 January 4, 2009, 02:07 AM

nycpro96 · #14 January 4, 2009, 02:08 AM

we HAVE TO whitewash these guys. we should play the youngsters including kayes, nayeem and robin to get their confidence levels up

Gowza · #15 January 4, 2009, 02:25 AM

i want to see some of the youngsters in these 3-day matches e.g. rubel, subashis, ziaur, delwar, robiul, shuvo, marshall, nasir, riyad, shamsur, mithun ali.

So they're warming up for two ODI series with a three day match? Bhaloi.

Gowza · #23 January 4, 2009, 07:24 AM

why is subashis never picked for these teams? wanted to see delwar hossains name there as well as he's one of the only decent pacer allrounder prospects going around atm. ashame nasir, shuvo and shamsur didn't get picked though. maybe they want to keep shuvo behind the shadows in case they want to debut him in the up coming series but no reason to do that for the other 2. i've noticed recently that nasir and shamsur haven't been selected as often for these teams, wonder why.

but at least they've picked some decent up and comers for this team. eager to see how jahurul, mithun, marshall, naeem, nasiruddin, robiul, rubel and sajidul go against the opposition. btw which nazmul hossain is it?
