Players who grow longer beard will get more runs. We have seen this in the case of Mohammed Yousuf and Hashim Amla. Meharab has grown beard longer, so he will get more runs tomorrow. False assumption? Lets see in a few hours.....

In another thought...
Music is the primitive language for soul. If you know music, don’t stop it- use it to communicate with your soul.

Looking at the team performances so far, batting is not the worry spot, largely due to the flat deck and to inept fielding to some degree. I'll confess: I am worried about today's match. I am thinking we might even lose.
First, The Vermulen-S.Williams-Taylor-Chigumbura batting - They don't seem to see any demons in our spin. As a matter of fact, 3 of the 4 belted us pretty good in the last match.
Second, they are talking about including another quickie to help Rainsford. If these guys can direct just a few snorters towards the green helmets - big problem. Once these guys start bending their backs, anything can happen.
Statistical reality is, if Shakib had scored his famous century with even twice the number of deliveries in the last match- we would have still called it a "fantastic knock". Although, that would have meant we would have lost the match. One express train from Magura made all the difference.
The same statistical reality says, can't count on Shakib or Tamim to come good today, once again.
Hmm...may be a Mehrab-Mushfiq type late, face-saving partnership will come in handy...
|
well, we've had two big batting games in a row, so it speaks volumes as to teh flatness of the deck, and the impotence of the bowling attack. so i think tamim, shakib could possibly be counted on to score again. plus shak has only batted once this series!
ash, tamim, rahim, Rock still there who didn't score big last game. although i am not expecting us to score at over 6 runs an over for the entire series, lets see how long it goes.
i really want to see a convincing bowling job, and with nazmul out, that really does dent our bowling. but as long as we have rasel, and a spin committee, we should win.
looking forward to 3-0, en route to 5-0. with robin, nazmul, mehrab, and enam all getting valuable matches under their belt, we are effectively getting a lot of our bench some real match practice.
lets just hope mash can come back to being a tiger in 2 months, and rubel and nazmul are just going through some minor aches and pains.

No one is freaking out bud. If I opened a thread praising him not because of his performance but the fact that he's agnostic; I assume you won't be too pleased about that. You sound intelligent, so I refuse to believe you didn't anticipate you'll get some harsh responses when you opened this thread. You wanted attention, you got it. you wanted an occasion to preach, got it. but don't expect to get away with it without some resistance. This forum is as much a Muslim's as it is a non believer's...so is our country :-)

This guy is a joke. His strike rate is unforgivable in this match.

The real question, as per Wakidul bhai's post in the match thread, is whether this new, more pious Mehrab will continue to wear shorts during the warm up.

But if he's a mosnter indeed and would burn me anyway...bring it on! I refuse to be intimidated by a moster!
I don't deny or accept God...there's no way for us humans to confirm his existance or non existance! But I certainly deny the man made image of God! Religion is a choice, organized religion is a crime! It brings nothing to society but unrest, violence, unjustified arrogance, "I'm the only one right" mentality based on nothing. good people will do good things anyway, bad people will do bad. But for good people to do bad things...that takes organized religion.

It started from Mehrab jnr. being spiritually moved and having a calm approach in everything....and it's ended (well, not really; still moving pretty fast) in the logic behind existence of God! You have some good points but for a topic quite too much extended from what actually was to be talked about here......Let's quit here, sir; shall we? ...Ar Mehraibbare, eto ashar protidan diti parli na re!!
