Problem:
1. Problem with team selection, batting/bowling orders: lower orders often outclass top orders, same mistakes by same batsmen over and over, playing wrong batting/bowling combinations/rotations
2. Not enough international exposure/match practice: players talk about it all the time
3. Not used to different condition/weather/pitches: a common complaints
4. Faulty Gameplan: The game was lost before it began due to bad toss decision, Giving up when wicket is not falling, not sure how to attack a certain batsmen/team, not a clear gameplan and set of backup gameplans. No instruction during the breaks to the batsmen etc.
Solution:
1. Make the selectors work harder. Change the head coach. Need a new and senior head coach who will have better control over players. He can do a better team management and superior gameplan. Make Siddons batting coach. We also need a new bowling coach. Donald? Abdul Qadir?
2. Allow 4 foreign players per team in the Premier League. So ALL our domestic players will get a chance to face 2nd-3rd-4th-5th string Pak/Ind/SL bowlers and batsmen. International exp right in our own backyard! There will be no need to send our domestic players all over the world to gain such experience. To afford these foreign players we must commercilize the game even more and show a lot of them on live TV. BCB should team up with a TV channel. There wont be any shortage of sponsors.
3. Make all kinds of piches in our stadiums. And use all of them. Make spin track in Dhaka and Rajshahi, fast and bouncy track in chittagong, khulna etc. Now ALL our domestic players are exposed to all kinds of condition and tracks.
Usually we play in Dhaka and Chittagong for international matches. Use the SAME/duplicate pitch round the year that will be used for International matches. Now ALL our National Players are exposed and adapted to these tracks. If we cant win a test at least we must draw a test.
4. We definitely need a mature head coach when it comes to gameplan. When we listen to the commentators it seems even the commentators are sick and tired of the bad decistions by the coach, about his batting orders, not being proactive enough, not acting according to the sitiuations.
And we need a new talended computer analyst. In fact we need a team of computer analysts to assist the coach for gameplan. I highly doubt Nasir Hossain is a sharp, talented computer analyst. We may not need a Harvard graduate but we definitely need someone who is also very sharp analyzing the game. We have plenty of them in the BC forum.
