Is England any good? How aggressive are they? What is the highest total this group scored and against who?

Dead rubber really. I'm not expecting Bangladesh to win this. A win will be great nonetheless. The good thing is that there is not much expectation for the team as compared to the last tournament. I heard some great things of Pinak Ghosh, but his record is ordinary.

Those great things you heard were from several years ago when he was hyped as the next Sachin or something. Not surprisingly he hasn't lived up to the hype.

Doesn't matter. We would lose to Nepal if that was our QF opponent.

BD is not longer even a half decent team at U-19 level. The time of us having a genuine shot at reaching the semis ended in 2012. 2014 team was in the plates, and the last batch only made the semis because we were playing at home and faced Nepal in the quarters (who almost beat us).

I just hope we produce a wrist spinner who can turn the ball or a seam bowler who is at least 6 feet tall and bowls at 140 kph.

Still didn't qualify for Semis before 2016 though.

Or like saying water tastes worse than cous cous. (Or is it the other way around?)

Great. Now I feel like a total phallic head. And a monster. A creep. A child... nevermind.
