i still hope mash can be our opening bowler who can give us 10 overs a game of controlled bowling. of course the big hitting is there. but i was primarily concerned with proper batsman who can play proper cricketing shots for the slogger/finisher role. mash can play proper shots, but in ODIs and in teh slog overs he's very much a "throw the bathtub at it" kinda dude, although he is a very talented and skilled hitter. also, he is not in the WC squad. but for long term, he's a good no 8. i am primarily interested in an #6, 7...although i understand that my use of Oram and Razzaq and Pathan as examples means that Mashrafee is also a perfectly legit consideration.
thanks for your praise, it means a lot.
