Default Nope - still a few games left

Nope - there are still a few games left for sorrow.

The next 5 One Day and 2 Test matches that Bangladesh is going to play is all against big guns - Australia, New Zealand and South Africa.

And in the next games - in the West Indies tour of Bangladesh, we can expect for some good performances.

And then - we can hope for some better results teamwise in the world cup.

You see, in the SL tour, individual performances were at very low. The players will need some time to go high.

And as Bangladesh will play only one one day game against Australia and Zealand, so the players will need some time to adjust - to their level. What is good for us is that the players will get to face height balls (chest-high balls) in slightly favorable slower pitches.

Also, the players will need to adjust to the conditions of South Africa. But, as we all know that South Africans aren't as accurate as the Australians, so players who can adjust to those conditions quickly can perform.

BUT, in Bangladesh, they will face chest height balls at home - and West Indians are not so good as Aussies, Kiwis and Springboks. So, better performance against them is likely. So is likely the chance of boosting up the confidence of each player.
