Captaincy screw up monitor

[cricplay]

when you are not getting any wickets you should get your main strike bowler in as soon as possible. shakib didn't bowl in the first 10 overs and mushfiq just allowed the game to drift...i really don't understand why he went with zia in the 19th over...the guy didn't bowl earlier and why do you want to expose someone like that when the batsman are only looking to slog? 10 out of 10 times you should go with someone who has experience bowling in the death overs...when will our captain learn? how many more matches will mushfiq cost us?

It's not bad captaincy , it's dumb captaincy , clueless . Even club cricket captain has more knowledge than Mushy . Intentionally he brought Ziaur in the death over to punish him so that he can be dropped in the next match (Because he doesn't like him) . If Sakib and Zia bowled in the 1st 10 overs we could have contained the WI with in 130 . Look at Sami --- he started with the spinners and got result . We have a good team but bad brainless captaincy is ruining our chances . For better results we need to get rid off Mushy as captain !!

Horrible stuff from captainy shorty pants.

There was no explanation what so ever for bowling out Gazi straight. One needs to realize that unless someone is bowling exceptionally well, you should not over bowl him because this allows the opposition batsman to get used to that kind of bowling hence we saw Gazi getting tonked in his last over.

And not bringing in Shakib earlier is criminal. Sakib is your best bowler, can get you wickets which will stop the run flow in the process. But instead he brings him in the end as if he is a specialist death bowler.

But then again, not much a captain can do when his fielders drops dollies. And he should have stopped those boundaries that went past his legs but that does not really fall under captaincy.

Even that falls under captaincy. A captain has to lead by example, or at least show that he can deliver from his own role. This kind of blunders certainly get team's morale down.

Lot of runs were scored in fact almost 30 percent runs scored from straight drives and right behind him. If there were one fielder behind him and one fielder behind the bowler around the boundary lines, around 40 runs could have saved..

Even Ganguly was mentioning that Mushy isn't thinking on his feet. In cricket things changed every over...even every ball. He can't be that dumb can he? 4 overs straight for Gazi regardless of how those overs went. 3 overs to Riyadh regardless of how those overs went. No Shakib till the 12th over, regardless of match situation. Giving a bowler who is making a comeback one over. That being the penultimate over.

He can't be that dumb.

Mushy, I thought you were the most decent person in the team. The hard working, thoughtful leader! I always regarded that you are someone who we can trust and believe in. We had so much faith in you because we believed you can talk fluently from your head and heart. Todays game just changed everything............you destroyed and damaged your own reputation as an honest person...........Sorry.

Putting Zia to bowl in the 19th over is not a honest captain can do! It is just to destroy a player's career. This is outrageous! This is pure politics. This is just to make someone an escape goat. This is just showing the egomaniac / politician self of you. You could not rise above the your own dark side. Your captaincy is the biggest factor for the failure of the team!!!! Either change yourself or give up the captaincy........don't make the team suffer for your ego!

[aguner_gola]

Someone should ask captain about the "Zia is a part-time bowler" comment from Asia cup in regard to giving him the ball on 19th over

[imtiaz82]

Mushy's captaincy is going from bad to worse... he should shoulder responsibility for all the recent defeats and step down. In yesterday's match, he bowled out gazi and left Shakib till the 13th over, there was no variation in bowling, no creative field setting and he was unable to inspire the other players resulting in poor fielding.

[Jadukor]

We make it so easy for new batsman to get set with singles. Shoaib Malik must be thanking us for the generous offer. Batsman comes in with no pressure created on him... he takes singles (mushy is happy that there is no boundary).. get set and then hammers us at the death

[MHRAM]

can't blame mushfiq when our fielders are so casual scoring 2 runs is easy

Mushy is simply clueless.

[Mas_UK25]

Mushy sux as a captain. has to be worse in bd history

[Kohli_Sox]

Massive call for change in captaincy. He got no clue how to rotate bowlers. Pathetic.

[BD_TigerZ]

Idiots backing his pathetic captaincy incoming..mushy drops him after bringing him back into the attack..idiot.

We may have 4 centuries in the second innings. Will that solve our idiotic captaincy problem?

[imtiaz82]

Mushy needs to step down as Test captain, maybe Shakib can take over?

He is just overwhelmed. All the time looking around to setup fielding taking attention away from keeping, thus dropping regulation catches. Lacking intelligence off the field, picks up players no clue about. He does not know which bowler to bowl and when to use them or take them off. This is because he does not the strength and weakness of the bowlers very well specially the new ones. But this is where the coaching staff should come through and help him out.

Fielding coach should do a better job to setup fielding formation for individual bowlers. On the field he is clueless as a test captain. The head coach and other coaching staff need to work with him closely on his decision making, field placement, bowling rotation, keeping improvement and help him to relax and focus.

Bottom line he is doing more harm than good. The nightmare of 2014 is back as soon as he is back as a captain. Management must relieve him from captaincy immediately and let him focus on keeping and batting just like ODI.

Then Mash also got the title of "Poor Captain" on BC bhai No savior in sight

[Rifat]

In all likelihood and honesty, Rahim will remain captain until the remainder of the series at least and maybe until the latter half of this year. I think Shakib will get the captaincy at some point and Mominul will get the vice captaincy.

I think the board and the selectors will stick with the current bunch for a couple more series. In test cricket, these are the players who are under scrutiny:

Rubel Hossain (only two fifers in his first class career)
Shuvagoto Hom(has to contribute in a major way with either bat or ball or both)

The real problem is Bangladesh does not have a Pace academy or pitches that assists seamers: The pipeline for Test pace bowling is really really bleak at the moment. Taskin and Mustafizur should debut at some point this year with limited workload meaning using them in short bursts of no more than 4/5 overs on the trot...

Let's finish this series then we can decide whether Rahim should lose captaincy or not. Shakib will probably get it at some point.

I really can't explain why Jubair wasn't selected. He is a little off form at the moment(that's because our genius desi people won't let him play in domestic matches), but even then, his variations would at least create some chances...
