Footwork wise, none of our batsmen are even near perfect. If we take Tamim for example, he plays several slashes where he doesnt get anywhere near the ball, but he has tremendous balance and power, hence he can smack the ball out of the park.
And given we barely play at Old Trafford/Perth, I reckon our players can get away with weak technique. Obviously, if Anamul faces Steyn at Waca or Johansberg, he would be in a lot of sh*t. So will be every other batsman we have.
I don't think we need to worry too much about Anamul. It was his first proper international game, nerves are bound to be there. Some of the shots he played, he exuded class. If you look at his BPL innings, he doesn't have a poor technique either. And I have heard from several Dhaka league players that Anamul is perhaps the finest cricketing talent to emerge in the recent past. Let's give him an extended run, let him find his feet [no pun intended] in international cricket.
