Our opener's weakest link is playing the pacers. Pace with good bounce has always troubled them.
We need to fix the problem at the root. BCCB should make more bouncy pitch at national level so our players grow up playing bouncy balls.
As far as the current national openers are concerned - they need phychological boost. They need to start thinking that if we want to beat India or Australia our batsmen (Bashar, Sarkar, Ash or Alok) have to bat better than Tendulkar, Ponting, Martyn or Hayden.
I think to our openers these guys are super stars not opponents.
