Quote:
Bangladesh have reduced their preliminary 30-man squad for the World Cup to 23. Nazimuddin, Shamsur Rahman, Sahagir Hossain, Mithun Ali, Nasir Hossain, Shuvogoto Chowdhury and Enamul Haque Jr are the players who have been left out. The remaining 23 players will be of a preparatory camp that begins on January 9 at the Sher-e-Bangla stadium in Mirpur.
All 14 teams participating in the tournament have to announce their final fifteen before January 19.
Preliminary Squad: Shakib Al Hasan, Mashrafe Mortaza, Tamim Iqbal, Mohammad Ashraful, Imrul Kayes, Junaid Siddique, Roqibul Hassan, Mushfiqur Rahim, Mahmudullah, Nazmul Hossain, Naeem Islam, Rubel Hossain, Shafiul Islam, Abdur Razzak, Suhrawadi Shuvo, Shahriar Nafees, Jahirul Islam, Syed Rasel, Shahadat Hossain, Mahbubul Alam, Dolar Mahmud, Shabbir Rahman, Alok Kapali.

Good selection i guess... None of Nazimuddin, Sahmsur, Sahgir, Mithun, Nasir, Shuvogoto have experience to be considered for the WC squad. And we dont need enamul as our squads have the sufficient number of spinners.
Glad to see Shabbir and Alok made it though. Shabbir could be a surprise attack for WC and Alok Kapali could be our PP solution. However, chances of them making the final 15.
My 15,
Tamim, Imrul, Junayed, Sakib, Nafees, Mushfiq, Naeem, Riaydh, Razzaq, Shafiul, Rubel, Roqibul, Jahirul, Alok/Shabbir, Nazmul/ Mashrafee (Mash if he is fit)

Dear Players of Bangladesh,
This World Cup is time to consolidate our ability in the world. The World will be watching how much we are capable in our own turf. Goal of the team should be solid (as stone) batting from top to middle order, effective (as accurate line & length) bowling and tight (as wall) fielding. A game plan (methodical approach) for 100 overs. Execute those plan with 120% effort. Each player should stick to the team plan. Inshallah we will shine in every game.

I'm with you bro.
I'd be really happy if selectors says we had to drop ASH for SHABBIR
Naeem should be dropped to make way for Alok as Its more likely that ALOK can slog in powerplay while Naeem will only slow things. UNLESS Naeem bats at 3/4 in place of Rakibul/Jahurul/Ash

Good to see Shabbir is still in the race. I hope he makes it into the XV. Alok/Ash (if selected) should be considered as a PP player.

ditto.
as worthless as alok/ash are you don't leave them out of the world cup unless of course you want to lose to netherlands and ireland (both of whom i gurantee can bat better in PPs than we can). but our modon coach - who i have all the respect for - and modon management - who i think have been doing a pretty decent job since past 3 years - are going to concede to ashraful's demands and slot him at no 4.
ashraful should be told that he is no longer the player who can dictate terms to the rest of the team. he bats at 6 or 7, or he doesn't play at all. simple as that. let him choose. same story for alok.
perhaps we should let sabbir be this year's wildcard inclusion a la tamim.

Naeem, Ryadh, Rokibul and Junaid are the players i am worried about..
Ryadh and Naeem both look like million dollar spinners against sides like Zimbabwe, NZ.. batters that are clueless against spin... and equally toothless against strong batting sides... they will get milked for runs while opposition keeps wickets in hand in the middle overs while the think tank will feel 10 overs 40 runs no wickets was an economical spell...
and on top of that during the powerplay they will bat like they are scared to hit the ball...
Junaid at no 3... is like a lottery... he might chip the ball to short midwicket for zero or he might score a fifty... what ever he does its not going to be a quick score...
Rokibul... or bepar e kisu bolar nai... the fact that he is in the squad makes me depressed
I am hoping for consistent performances from Mushfiq, Shakib, Tamim and Kayes... hopefully the rest can chip in... without Mashrafi... this current squad lacks fire power... Everybody seems to want to bat at no. 3! I can't see how we can chase down big scores with so many defensive minded players...

with the new salary structure of players, BCB just gave Ash A+ contract. Do you really think they would allow him to get kicked out of the final 15?
Imagine what a kick in their back that would be....award someone A+ contract for the year and he does not make the final 15 not due to injury but BAD form!! What a justification that the BCB is doing a hell of a job

Mushy is in great form and deserves to bat at # 4. It would be a shame if he cant bat there because of Ash. We suck @ PP lets face it. Mushy/Riyad is not an answer. Ash/Alok is..

You have a valid point here. If Mushy replaces Rock at # 4 then we can add someone extra for powerplay at # 6 or 7. Mushy is a bit slow during powerplay and always gets out when trying to clear the boundary. But he scores much faster then Rock and finds the gap easliy. Some one like ASH should be a good choice for # 6 or 7 (since he is getting that A+ contract might aswell use him somehow). Even a player like Sabbir might do good at that position and not to mention this also gives 1 extra part time bowler.

You explained it well why Mushy should play at no 4.Most members in this forum also think that this is the right decision to play Mushy at #4 now my question is why the management is not implementing this?

4 pacers
1.Shafiul
2. Rubel
3. Nazmul
4. Mashrafee (if fit)/another pacer.
100% sure
5. Mushfiq
6. Tamim
7. Shakib
8. Kayes
2 spinners
9. Razzaq
10. Shuvo (small chance for Naeem here)
9 batsmen fighting for 5 spots:
Mohammad Ashraful
Junaid Siddique
Roqibul Hassan
Mahmudullah
Naeem Islam
Shahriar Nafees
Jahirul Islam
Shabbir Rahman
Alok Kapali.
Jahirul/Alok/Shabbir have to be incredible in the camp to make it into the top 15.
Junaid has to do really bad to drop out of 15.
Probably two of Ash/Nafees/Riad/Naeem/Rakib will not make it.
The tension in camp will be intense.

My probable 15
1. Tamim
2. Kayes
3. Raqib/Nafees/Junaid (Junaid probably most suited here, he needs bit of luck in the beginning)

6. Ash/Mahmudullah (I will play Ash as one of the spinner for 1st 4/5 overs)
7. Shuvo
8. Razzak
9. Shafiul
10. Rubel
11. Shahadat
12. Mashrafee
13. Shabbir
14. Naeem
15. Jahurul

All you people asking for Shabbir based on what? Is it just based on his lone performance against Afgans in the Asia cup final? Even if he's doing really good in our domestic level, I don't think it warrants his inclusion in WC without any experience at the international level.

Why waste a spot with Mashrafee? I also think Nafees has earned a spot.

If you recall, it was Mashfree taking those 4 wickets that sent India packing.. I don't think either Rubel or Shafiul has shown that kind of variations, brilliance or tricks yet that matches Mashrafee. Even the coach himselfs says that in his recent interview. But, it could be that they pull surprises the day that it matters...
