And so they did in a fairly lopsided no contest. It is very possible. How is that three uncapped players get a call up? Is there anyway we can limit the role of Ashraful. How, could he not give the new ball to Shahadat? While we are at it, can we ban him from speaking to the media. I no longer believe that a lack of language skill is reponsible for his recent rediculous comments.
