I find it ridiculous that people are saying Tamim’s form is an issue. This is an irreplaceable loss. World Cup will see big scores and Almost everytime we successfully chased a 300 plus score, it has been Tamim providing a solid foundation. Whether it was World Cup ‘19 against West Indies or World Cup ‘15 against Scotland or a response to that Charles Coventry 194 where we chased down 300+ because of Tanim’s 150 plus. It’s such a sad day for our cricket.
100%. He had a different role, but with Litton also out of form, we will regularly be down (at least) 2 wickets during the power play.

Still processing the fact that he won't play again. As the youngest of our senior players I thought he would be the last to retire - even with all his fitness issues.
