[thebest]

Why we found neopotism in everything. yes Faruq is a cousin of SN. But VC is made by board not by selectors. By the way, age and experince is nothing to do with captaincy. Evrybody agrees Grame Smith is a better captain than Pollock. Mansur Ali patudi who was appointed captain as a 21 yr old kid is considered as the best indian captain before Ganguli. Taibu was a better captain than HB. Even Utseya prove he is better thn Pilot. Smith, Patudi, Taibu, Utseya are all the same age group as SN.
Yes Rajin was a mistake. But it was not board's fault that he can not play with pressure. If board can foresee whetehr one can play with pressure or not ECB or BCCI never made Botham or Tendu as captain. Those two are much better experienced than BCB.
Now what are the alternative.
Rafiq : There is a difference between hard task master and hot tempered. While Imran, Naser Hossain fall in the first group , Rafiq is in the second group. He is very good player, have a good cricket brain. But you need to take out the best from your team mate. With his temper it is doubtful.
Pilot : Read 2003 WC debacle report. Captain shld lead by example. Going to night club before an important match is indeed a good example.
Ash : He did wonder for Sonargaon as captain. But can he lead by example? His place in the team is not secure anymore. Also what I heard, he was one of the cheif instigator of unrest in U 19 WC in New Zealand.
Aftab : He might be an option. But he captained only school team.
Mash : Same as Aftab. But bowlers have to think so many things during fielding, it would higher probabilty of failure than SN. That is the reason there is so few succesful bowling captain. Imran might be the only successful case. Even great Sobers is a failure as a captain.
SN beside captaining the A side has completed courses on captaincy. McInnes alos identified him as a future captain. McInnes is not a fan of him. Remember he dropped him from U19 world cup. Yes captains are born but it is always helpful if you have some training.
Regarding Mehrab jnr - he was the most successful player of U19 world cup. He rarely fail since than in any assignment whether for Dhaka or Bangladesh representative team. If he has connection in BCB why he was not drafted before sakib or Farhad.
This is the grooming process. Why making the water muddy by making some baseless accussion.
