he by far the best leader we've had, but i will crucify him on these 2 issues because everyone is allowed to have a bad bowling day, but opting for the powerplay or making the right coin toss decision is a simple matter of just opening ur mouth and saying it.

i dont think shakib makes those decisions alone... he must have discussed those with the team before reaching a decision... i remember we did something similar during a Test also where we chose to bowl first in chittagong...
when u have finishers like naeem/mahudullah... then taking or not taking PP really doesnt make that much of a difference... its embarrassing to see that even the little guy mushfiq packs more power than those two...
