What I really don't like is people saying Rajin doesn't have the talent that Ashraful and Aftab have. Are you nuts? Staying 5 friggin hours at the crease is not talent? Then tell me what is talent? Attempting to WOW the crowd by Playing stupid shots near the end of a session with only a few overs to go? Rajins attitude, determination, grit, are all talents! (Hope I haven't jinxed him!)

For some time... that Rajin was missing... and now he is back just at the right time for BD!

In terms of Bd fans, talent is synonymous to show off. How classy you look when you hit that cover drive or that hook (as if they brings in 8 runs each). You know what players I'm talking about.

Matthew Elliot? VVS Laxman? Dravid? Athar? Daryll Cullinan? Roshan Mahanama? Bidyut?

of course rajin is a talent...i have been one of the biggest rajin fans since day 1 of pak tour 2003.
but his is a different talent than ash or aftab...ash and aftab, people will pay money to watch them do their thing. rajin is just as valuable (more right now) but people won't pay to watch him.
perfect analogy is rajin:ash/aftab::dravid:tendulkar

Sorry, but I really don't think you could compare our Ashy to Tendulker! Vinod Kambli perhaps? (Rare talents that never saw their true potential)

That's why I have been saying for long to put Rajin 3rd in test batting line up, since our openers are too vulnerable ( both Iqbal, Nafees like to play stroke ) and Rajin may stop early collapse. And losing Bashar early is always great blow to BD bating.
Well done Rajin, hope he can keep it up today in such a crucial moment.
