Experience vs Inexperience
According to my research, the most experienced players of the team are:
1) Pilot
2) Javed
3) Sumon
4) Rafique
--------------
5) Sanwar
6) Sujon
7) Rokon (Rokon was a recognized young player even before the name of Sujon could be heard of)
8) Monju
Experienced players:
1) Hannan Sarkar
2) Ehsanul Haque
Both of them has debut for national team in 2002 alright (i.e., after debut of even Ashraful) but they have been opening for Bangladesh A team for such a long time that even I forgot exactly when did they first started to open for Bangladesh 'A' team.
Least Experienced players:
1) Ashraful
2) Mashrafe
3) Tushar Imran
---------------------
4) Kapali
5) Tapash
6) Talha (although Talha was in the 1st test of SL tour - while Kapali and Tapash was not, but Kapali and Tapash are more experienced in terms of domestic level of cricket of Bangladesh)
So, we've got 8 most experienced players and 6 least experienced players. So, is our team combination based on TOO YOUNG players?
