What International match??? This is a practice match against an associate site played on your own highway! He comes onto bat at no.3 with Tamim as a partner and absoloutly no pressure. If he is nervous now, what will he do when he plays a real match infront of 20K crowd against an international side coming at no.7 where he HAS to hit?

He wont bat at no.3 since there are too many competitors. I would rather have Imrul, Shamsur, Anamul, Mominul, Shakib or even Mushy bat there than Shabbir who is supposed to be a finisher.

and why shouldnt I compare him? If you play x player instead of y, there is a direct comparison right there. Otherwise why would you play y? Only way Sabbir will be slotted in is if Riyad is dropped. Is it unfair to compare the "best T20 prospect" with the "worst player in the side"? unfair for who?
