Awesome Sherlock! You have solved the mystery, cracked the code, unearthed the cause of Ashraful's chronic failures in all sorts of cricket! Now all he needs to make one of the most remarkable comebacks in the history of the game, revive his international career and prolong it past the age of 40, breaking Bradman's record average in Tests in the process, is for someone - preferably a figure of guardianship, affection and consolation in his life, like his mother, a wife, a coach or a shrink - to tell him to go out to bat thinking he's on 90 every time. Genius.
