Cricket in Afghanistan has better future than in Bangladesh
Cricket in Afghanistan has better future than inBangladesh
ScoreCard
Plus considering the fact that Afghanistan is a war torn country with hardly any cricket budget and Bangladesh, which has been playing test cricket for 10 year with much better domestic set up; its quite pathetic really. Bangladesh has been a minnow for the past 10 years and will be in the future. Afgan has way better prospects from U-19 than from the losers BD U-19 team.

I'm sure there will be a couple of players with dubious nationality....but by looking at what names?
ahmadzai
shaidi
najibullah
hasmatullah
all sound like 'afghan' names to me...their photos also reflect this.
Not all of them are going to as funnily named as Abdullah Abdullah
EDIT: Looking at his posts...DaFan only shows up when 'calamity' strikes

If everything is based on ONE LOSS, then BANGLADESH has better future than ENGLAND, AUSTRALIA, SOUTH AFRICA, INDIA, PAKISTAN, SRI LANKA, NEW ZEALAND AND WEST INDIES because BANGLADESH U-19 Team has beaten all of the above more than once

this is probably our worst U19 team in a while...we struggled to beat England at home.

Well, keep in mind that couple key players were missing. Especially Anamul Haque, Abul Hasan Raju..
People said the same thing when UAE beat Bangladesh and that UAE has a bright future etc. etc. But the fact of the matter is, if you dont have a consistent pipeline, sponsors, crowd, infrastructure, any game will eventually die off... For instance, take Kenya as an example, reaching the Semis in world cup and then what happend? Unless Afghanistan can get fundings, crowd, cricket brains behind their team, they will have a spike but when the core set of players retires or are out of form, they wont go far.
Bangladesh losing to Afghanistan is a signal to BCB that they can't keep ignoring the youth team and be completely absorbed into the political, financial, international side of cricket,, they have to invest in good U17, U19 programmes, game development and get quality coaches. We let go of Fernando, Carlton, Shawn, De Winter etc. many years ago and never filled those roles and now we are seeting the downslides...

Afghanistan aren't like Kenya...there is some real popularity of the game there. Its even more popular than in places like Zimbabwe and Ireland, I'd wager. Their only problem is lack of security in their own country. They can't play at home, probably can't even train at home. An all overseas team is an expensive setup. I really hope they get all the assisstance from the ICC and other countries (same with Ireland), cricket needs a few new kids on the block. Afghans are also naturally athletic and I could see a situation where they could be a very very good side in the distant future.

AF you adjust depicting a picture from your mind. Afghans 99% even don't understand cricket as a game and nether play and neither they have any infrastructure whatsoever. Yes in any nation desperate for success at any level will rally and talk about their success in that event. But that hasn't yet reached that stage to call it a popular sports.
Just by the names I can point put with 100% guarantee that about 8 of them are pure Pakistani origin players. Afghan surnames are very distinctly different, with only grey area is Khans... Who can be a Pathan from either side.

Most of the player names sound afghan to me...Ahmadzai, Karzai, ___zai! Najibullah, Ahmadullah, Karimullah...etc. Most of them are listed by CI as being born in Afghanistan. Either way a Pathan is a Pathan. What if we found out 200 years ago, Shakib's ancestors were from Kolkata...would that disqualify him from playing for Bangladesh? I don't think we should go out and hire Manoj Tiwari or Ashok Dinda, but if something happened historically a bazillion years ago (before or after Partition), that doesn't matter.
OK, maybe resident Afghans aren't into the sport that much, but neither are resident Kiwis or Zimbabweans or West Indians. I'm not saying Afghanistan deserve Test status right now, but if they had infrastructure and security to host matches they should. Ireland deserve it already or definitely in the next few years.

If Afghanistan plays cricket without any Pakistani players and Pakistani assistance, you will see that they wont even be competitive against teams like Qatar. Yea they are cruising at the moment but than again, comparing them with Bangladesh's progress? Well Kohli_Sox answered the question...

Some Under-30 team of Afgan beat Under-19 of Bangladesh in a frigging match and all of a sudden we realize that Afgan has a better future than Bangladesh ?
No doubt that Afgans have a bright future if they can play like this and their management supports their team BUT to say their future is better than us based on a match is just awful.
