Look, you've got one in Mushrafe, and stats-wise, Baisya isnt that much different from a number of young fast-medium bowlers. There is also the story about the kid you ran in the under-19s ... Shahadat. Has anyone seen him ? How fast is he, really ?

New Zealand battled along for many years with only Richard Hadlee, and how many years has it been since England had someone great ?

Bangladesh's bowling is OK. Not great, but OK. It's their batting that needs to get better ; if they can consistently get scores of 600+ in both innings, they'll win test matches anywhere ; 520 is probably enough at home.
