Three pacers?

[shuziburo]

If you are a good team, three pacers tend to be the standard. But, as we showed in this match, our pace bowling needs to improve a lot before we can routinely go with something like this again, especially if the pitch is not pace friendly. If Bangladesh lasted another 30 minutes between the two innings, there would not have been enough time for PAK to win the match. If we had an extra batsman and went with two pacers, perhaps the 2nd test ends in a draw.

I didnt see the point of taking both sahadat and robiul..even Farhad reza would not have done any worse, And he could have given us some run

I say dont take any player for the heck of it. Robiul is a complete garbage. SK should concentrate on Dhaliwood. He has left his time behind.

Play three pacers only when Shafiul, Rubel and Nazmul are fit and the pitch is ideal for fast bowling. And I dont see Mash playing Test again :(

Mash's health precludes playing the longer version. He should be in the team, though. He could be a player-coach.

100% agree.I protested the moment i got team lineup.

What about discards like - Syed Rasel? Sharif? Tapash?

They should be tried in Tests as well. Nazmul was discarded and look how good he has become. And, Shahadat has wayyyyyy too much time on his hands as he only plays Tests but even then he sucks?

Nazmul performs better than his other FB teammates and then he is ignored.. and its happening for as while now. The same cannot be said about Rasel, Sharif or Taposh.
