Dulu and Prince were at the end of their career and soon anisur rahman become saiful's opening partner. also Khaled mahmud was knocking around

at that time bd had one of their best u-19 team that had players like Biddyut, Opi, Rokon, Sajid hasan, Zakaria (akram khan look a like), Atiar Rahman, Mustadir litu, Hasibul Hossain Shato, Morshed ali khan sumon, Sajal chowdhury, Rahul etc.

Sajal chowdhury first made a breakthrough and he and anis partnerd saiful in a tournament where BD played the subcontinent A teams ..... we beat india by 1 run where rafique bowled an excellent last over.

sajal chowdhury could not prolong his career as shanto broke into the side. he and saiful was now our main bowlers. Morshed ali khan sumon also played some games.

the next batch of pacers came from the next batch of u-19s ...... monjural islam, shafiuddin babu and bikash ranjan das. when saiful's career was over monjural made his mark. also bikash and shafiuddin babu had their time. also alamgit kabir, mofizur rahman munna were some other names.

then we saw the intake of tapash and mushfiq babu followed by mashrafe, talha jubair and shahadat ............

well its a long long story

Excellent, and thanks for reminding all the old memories.
Jahangir Shah Badshah is one pacer, who had the right attitude on field and very hard working. Although he wasn't exposed to all these modern day coachings, served us very well. Together with Prince...
