I wouldn't even go that far. I would like to see him bowl against quality left handers first and see how he can trouble them.

To the right handers, Robiul has a wonderful late away swing in favorable condition but has no ability in bringing the ball back or even get the ball to straighten. For him to trouble quality lefties he needs to be able to swing it enough, not prodigiously, find the rare gap between bat and pad or hit the pads to get wickets.

Don't get me wrong, Robiul bowled superb so far in this series and I pray to god he keeps up this consistency for the sake our team but unless he can swing or nip the ball back both ways with his pace he has a long way to go before reaching Mash's, who by far is the best bowler Bangladesh has ever produced imho, caliber.

Go Robiul.
