Quote from Sakib:"Mooo".

Look, its great that we have been consistently good in batting. scoring 250 3 times in a row is a great achievement. No denying it, and as captain he can be proud of that.

But India WILL score 350+ if they batted first? Really?!! I'd want to beat him up if I was a bowler like Razzak. Here was the perfect opportunity for the bowlers to shine and possibly restrict them to under 300, and Sakib just throws it away. If you can't grip the ball, and our strength is spin, how can you win bowling 2nd? And who knows if we end up with the same pace attack in the WC due to injury? Maybe Nazmul will will ahead of rubel, but that's it. Is Sakib gonna say we quit everytime we have to bat 2nd and the opponent scores 300+? He never looks after his bowlers and publicly says his pacers are bad. That's terrible!!
