Good points there bhai. If Imrul fails once again then Shamsur should come in.

A big point we should bring up is the rotation of the strike. Naeem's the ultimate fail here in this department. He scored 23 off 74 and 16 of those runs were boundaries. So that means he scored only 7 off 70 balls without those boundaries. Then you have SN scoring only 6 off 39 balls without boundaries. Mithun 9 off 42. Rock was a lot better with 22 off 88 balls and Mominul 32 off 101.

Of course with the field up in FC cricket, a lot of runs come off boundaries but it's still very important to rotate the strike so there isn't so much reliance on boundaries. Its something our batsmen HAVE to learn if they want to be successful in the longer version of the game or else we'll continue to see poor conversion rates.
