Riyad is my least bit of concern. I'm not all that upset that he is on the team. But why do we always go back 5 years, using 2-3 w/e available examples to justifiyr a player's current position? Makes no sense.

Riyad was great. But he was ruined when he was promoted to 4 and demoted 8 within a series, thanks to Ashraful. He hasn't scored since. And I will forever hold that against the management.
I am not trying to back Riyad based on his scores 2 years ago. However, all his good scores came under no pressure situation is not true.. Thats why i used the example of India and New Zealand.

If a player is not performing... and you want him dropped, thats fair.... but forgetting his contribution in the past isnt
