Coaches don't run field setting or bowler rotation from the dugout in cricket. This isn't soccer. They also have very little say about the starting XI. The buck stops with the captain, period. Mrs. Bogura (rtd.) has been at it for a while. He will not change. He cannot be trained. Wake up. Don't forget his horrible man-management either. Nepotism in team selection is there. Whining like a biatch and calling out junior players in front of the press whilst giving his buddies a break is also there.

Shakib's captaincy when we Banglawashed a depleted West Indian side in their own backyard was aggressive and outstanding. He never failed to create and sustain pressure on the opposition batsmen whenever he sensed their discomfort. The way he rotated bowlers was also brilliant. He tried to do the same in every single match he captained. His bowlers failed to put the opposition under pressure in many of those matches, but whenever they did, he had fielders surrounding them. Heck, even that traitor AshraFix did that. People have a short memory.

Shakib has issues and even some of those issues have issues. But he's a winner at the end of the day. He has brass cojones and absolutely HATES to lose. A guy like him doesn't hesitate to bench his buddies or whip them into shape if they cost his team. He's not pleasant. He's not a hand-holder who will wipe your @$$ for you. He won't smile and kiss your baby like a sniveling little politician. He won't warm your little emo heart with a lullaby. But he will win. That my friends, is the difference between Shakib Al Hassan Faisal and all the others.
