what bd misses
today i was watching the final overs in the day of Aus vs Eng with some people who dont have any interest in cricket i.e. in a canteen and merely watching as the tv was showing it. It was lee steaming in and had Giles in all sorts of bother , and finally dismissing him. charged atmosphere and all on a sudden crowd was very interested in this game. people who dont even understand cricket loves to watch it when shoaib or lee comes in.
I was thinking of the gingerly pace of mashrafi/anwar hossain against these england batsmen and i can now understand why england crowd was so lack of interest when bangladesh played. 80 mph , no seam or bounce and england batsmen was playing them almost with eyes closed.
