This is not the country to be playin poor in

[Huda]

Well England isnt certainly the place to be playing poor in

the british media will slaughter you and people will get a 1 sided view of BD cricket from one game

It infuritaes when likes of Alec stewart who havent seen BD cricket much commenting on BD havent improved at all in 5 years. what boshit.

same with geof boycott, who says teams with a coach of gordon grenidges standard shoudnt have such poor techniques. he obviously doesnt know most of these players havent PLAYED UNDER Grenidge.

I really hope we perform next week, at least getting to 250 pls hope to god we do. Once people get on your back, its hard to get rid of them

Geoff Boycott spoke the truth and nothing but the truth about your team play, batsmanship and bowling on commentary like it or not.

Boycotts my favourite commentator, he speeks the truth without fear.

During 2nd day :

Atherton : Interesting to see England had a nightwatchman (Hoggard) padded up last night.

Boycott : What? If I was Ian Bell I would of shot him. Against this bowling and he is going in before me? I would of strangled him or something and ran out to get a knock against this bowling.

Brilliant.

Alec Stewart however is the worst commentator ever :down:

The simple matter of fact is BD would bounce back. This may not seem obvious at the moment -- but they will.

Did Boycott really say that? :)

I know that his words could be 'pain in the ***' for us sometimes, but I also like this straight-forward words of his.

I guess the best reply that I can say to what he said is that there is not any sort of communication between our former players and current players to be able to transform the improvements of our former players into our current players. There is no such culture like that, especially in Bangladesh cricket. That's why all the new players have to learn it from the scratch - all over again.

rob,

boycott off course speak the truth but only the truth AS HE SEES it.... (he is entitled to that like any other)

on this occasions, it was a information, rather than judgment and he was bit off here....

his mentioning run out is a paradox.. he must have forgotten that he was once being run out delibaretely by his team mate as the going was very slow...

[feisal]

further on Boycott, who the hell was the co-commenting?? that guy must have been a gentleman that he did not remind him about that run out... or that cocommentator just does not know that fact.....

I think you are going to be proven right. Back in Australia, Bangladesh player a lot better in the second test match. Hopefully they will do he same here in England.
