Now that we've regiestered another first time ever under our belt (first time whitewash), its time to look forward to the one day series.

it is not gonna be a walk in the park since some of their old foxes are coming back, specially streak.

however, they are out of the sport for a long time and we can really use the oppertunity. if our A team can run another clean sweep, it will give us a huge mental advantage for the future contest among the seniors.

it will make them think that the time they spent outside the game gave bangladesh an opetunity to go past them.

i think this One Day series is very important for us and going to be interesting.

I think BD A can do it, even if the rebels come back in full force since they're out of cricket for a long time and will need time to adjust.

If we can do it, it'll serve as a great motivator for the senior team. So this series is very important.

Streak should be red carpetted to their national team. Its a huge disrespect toward him if he is sent to the A team.

Can you imagine Rafiq playing in our A team? Streak is Rafiq * 10.

i don't think that decision is wrong. mind it, he's been out of the team for so long. he at least need a chance to prove his fitness and stuff.

a bad performance here won't harm as much as in national team. but once everyone is on the same page he can sure be taken to the national team.

but again, he way their national team is doing, do they really have the laxuary?

I think Streak won't be there playing against the 'A' team as the news reports say that he will be joining the Zimbabwe national team for the 3rd ODI vs SA.

Both Fwullah and Pagol-chagol are right. Streak won't be in the A team as he shouldn't be. He belongs in the test team.

How can u say this streak is a world class player, he was better than rafique but now it's a no brainer, he hasnt played first class cricket in 10 months. Look at tendulkar and how he's struggling(dont know how he got a double on us though).

Zimbabwe will desperatly need him. His addition will increase Zimbabwe's test quality player to 1. Taibu is good but needs more time.
