Akram is not playing tonight

Inqilab reports - Akram is not playing tonight. No change from the last team.
Akram gave an interview with inqilab reporter Shamim Chowdhury. Is this the same Shamim Chowdhury who does the commentary?
Anyway, in that interview Akram expressed his anger towards BCB. Isn't that breaking the code of conduct???

Akram would be better off to redirect the anger on the likes of Pollock, Kallis, Klusener or the next VICTIMS for Bangladesh.

And don't tell me to read up on it in the Inquilab, please.

Akram said he was thrown away even he scored 405 runs in Busta cup and 2nd highest runs in the league. His name was there in the list of 30. But they omit his name without seeing his practice. There was a big conspiracy against him and that started when Trvor Chappel was the coach. etc etc.....

(I do agree with you but seeing these ..... its hard to stay calm)
Don't even have a present and we're looking for the future ?

Practically though. In four years, if we can keep 6-8 of these same players, we will have a much stronger team. However, we do need to play the right teams (Not Australia in Australia) in order to get there. More steady dose of A team tours for the boys would help them build a BACKBONE which is missing from the current bunch. Sometimes, it won't hurt to play against teams that we know we can beat.
