Our "FC" isn't anywhere near where it should be given our resources and passion. It is a farce compared to other cricket tournaments in a country because of persistent neglect and abject disregard for context and qualitative analysis of these so called "FC" stats. National players are selected or discarded primarily due to nepotism or unsubstantiated impression by guys who don't recognize quality in either a technical or a tactical sense, and these stats are used to justify their inclusion or exclusion without any intellectual honesty whatsoever.
I'm not saying it should be as good as the FC in Australia, South Africa or England. I'm saying that it isn't where it should be on account of neglect compared to the DPL. The proof is in the pudding and just look at our record at the highest level. Any international team that even considers players like Nazimuddin, Rokibul Hasan, Jahurul Islam and many others deserve nothing better.
