this is the role a coach to play. how come after spending these years, none of our players rectifies their mistakes. if someone doesn't want to rectify his mistakes just through him out. why we are watching same wicket throughing over the years in a same manners from the same player. could you a find a single player under DW, who rectifies his wicket throughing maniac. if not, what DW is doing. look IND, PAK, how they changed after changing their coach. and its always true, if you stick with the same management, you will not able to dynamise yourself further. yes, DW is one of the best coach we ever had. he also delivers some good performance. but i think he reaches his best level in delivering performance to BD team. look, when John Wright was coach of India, indeed he delivered lot what other indian previous coaches couldn't. but reached his level best and you can clearly differentiate it after changing him. so, i think its time to think about changing DW.

[nasifkhan]

yes yes yes change DW....bring some one like...Mohinder Gabornath.or Mohsin kamal ....or Steve Tikolo.....

as i have always said players like aftab, ashraful needs coaching guidience. i think anyone will agree that they have talent but not the temperment. they should be trained by an experienced test batsman of past generation who has lot of runs under his record. there are quite a few in india/pakistan. we still need a head coach. but the batting coach should work with the batsmen only and develop their temperment how to play long innings and convert a 50 into 100.

[Sovik]

i think we should retain everyone except for those buira khatash. this defeat will make them think and will make them stronger. they needed this. we needed this. we underestimated the power and strength of zimbabwe and overestimated ours

[baisab]

Rajin for Golla (Permanently)

Mashud never to captain the team ever again

Ash, Alok, Mash, Aftab (from squad for a while to find ther head and feet)

Al-Shahriar Rokon needs a call up

give the young guns a chance (i wonder what good it would do them to tour with a squad that keeps losing)

The corrupt selectors (Crossfired by RAB)

u mean who is not in the kick out list? that'll be a smaller list...

"Totally disagree.. the fluke wins do not count. And that's what they have been. Considering the amount of money Dav Whatmore is getting, he should have the ability to make us poop gold. But look at this dismal performance."

I disagree with the above disagreement. Only one person cannot change the attitude, and way of playing of a whole nation. He can just change the attitude of the National Team, which he did - by bringing us shock-victories here and there, however fluke they may be.

The real change has to be in the minds of all Bangladeshis. We cannot think of better cricket when our domestic cricket doesn't improve dramatically, from whre our players are coming from.

First of all, how much money do we spend in actually preparing good sporting wickets? I'd say its very limited.

Secondly, how much money do we spend in getting players from outside Dhaka, and what is the standard of cricket played outside Dhaka? Very limited and very poor.

What the national team's coach can do is just to change the image of the nation, he works with only a bunch of 20 odd players who turn the game around within a couple of years. Now if our players refuses to get the benefit of just that one person, then its his and our nation's downfall.

Just think - we can't blame Dav for not getting long term benefit from him when we know our players, and our players' mentality - after all, they have come from losing to Canada to beating Australia in just a couple of years' time, and only two factors helped in the raise - the coach - Dav Whatmore and the former captain - Khaled Mahmud, the former helped in improving our attitude and the latter helped in stopping the indiscipline between the team.

4. Can you care to qualify "your own bunch of gadha"..? are you directly attacking me if so that is absolutely unacceptable and I want moderated to take note.

There is no point of attacking you Mr.CTazim, I have not got any problem with u! I said 'your own bunch of gadha ' cause I don't want to accept those players anymore. By refering 'you' I meant the whole community who love bangladesh team. Thats it.

Now, Srilanka thought there was no need of Dav after the World Cup in 1996, he went away in The Uk to coach a county team. After the dismal performance of 1999 WC they decided to bring him back. It was more than a renewal of the contract. And they still believe he is a very good coach.

Remeber who play in the final eleven does not depend on the coach only. It depends on the captain, selectors as well. So there has to be a consent to take any decision.

So personally u might not like him but I do like him. Thats it.

[layperson]

People who are calling for dav's head are just looking for a scapegoat maybe because they have relatives in the BCB administration. Only a fool can denounce whatmore's contributions to Bangladesh cricket. A coach can only do that much and it is upto the players to perform in the middle. What can a coach do if a batsman throws his wicket or if a bowler bowls four full tosses in the final over when 19 runs are required ? The blame for the failure has to go to the selectors primarily for the horrible combination, the BCB administration for scheduling a tour where we played only one practice match I think, The coach for the terrible fielding display ( this can be blamed on dav coz bad fielding is a result of lack of practice) and most importantly the players who did not perform. We need a major shake up in the selection comittee and in the team. I suggest you fire all the current selectors and bring in Bulbul, Akram and Lipu. Make Khaled mahmud the team manager. In the team we need to get rid of Kapali and Golla permanently. Ashraful for the time being and let him prove in the domestic matches that he can be a consistent performer. We need to try new players for the opening slot and we need someone who is compact in technic and a bit aggressive. Nafees is pretty slow and rajin is also slow. Having two slow players open in ODI's is not a good idea. Here we can try out ashraful or aftab. If this is the case we can give ashraful one more chance as an opener before dropping him. It should be noted that he used to open for the under 19 team i think. His game should be better suited to opening where there is fielding restriction. We should definitely bring in sakib who I think has performed consistently and this consistency should be rewarded and we just might find a consistent player at this level. THe most interesting thing to note is that most of our national team players also have dismal batting averages in first class matches. Hence we should give chances to players who has a good first class record in the one day versions and similarly for test matches.

[akabir77]

easy to say to be done..
ash was tried as an opener but failed.. mind you he most of the time comes in when the fielding restriction is on still gets caught some where in the small d-box(circle)....
And I agree on firing he selectors but I also think coaches has some actions to be taken.
And do u remember what happen when we constantly chaged players bds performance was very veyr bad... Do we have aggressive opener in bd? no? so where r u getting those replacements? also saqib nakiq all those u-19 team player that u r baking now will should after the next match to drop them cause most of them will fail cause this is not u-19. remember he didn't play that well with a team either.... so how can u tell which one will do better then other? isn't it also coaches job to find out?

[cricketboy]

Golla (permenently from ODIs)
Pilot (never make him captain, I just wished we had a more alternative attacking batsman wicketkeeper suited for ODI than Rahim)

[roaring tigerz]

The squad now is pretty much the best team we have right now. Making wholesale changes would not solve anything. The only necessary change I see is the change in attitude. Lack of resolve and temperament, repeating mistakes, discipline...these are the areas where we are miles behind the better teams. what has hurt most watching the team play this series is the absence of pride as a team and the tendency to crumble in pressure situations. I am afraid discarding players, drafting in a bunch of youngsters and hoping for miracles is nothing but a grand illusion.

[Rabz]

i agree with fwuallah..
its not Dav's fault, its our mentality..
what would be the next coach's advice to ashraful and aftabs??
stay there, dont play too many early shots, ?? get consistent...??

maturity has to come from within... no matter how many shrimp sessions u hv, it aint gonna change the attitude if u dont self realise.

ashraful and aftabs have played enough games to understand thier own game better by now..should be matured enough to hold the batting order in right places and making runs ...well...at least to a much better consistency...

these players need concentration camp, not training session...

take them up in the Bandorbon, Khagrachori hills and let them loose on a survival-style training camp, let them live on rats and ants for few days...
but i dont think that wud still solve the problem...

[roaring tigerz]

we, bangladeshi cricket fans are an emotional breed. its true that the series loss has left us all very perplexed, disillusioned, frustrated and angry. but i think it is imperative to not use harsh terms like 'kick out' when talking about replacing our cricketers. everyone of these players, have worked their entire lives and competed against thousands of others to reach this stage. sure, we all have our personal likings and dislikings. but i don't appreciate when we refer to our own players with such disrespect for their failures. we know better than that right?

[Haradhon]

Pilot is a good wicketkeeper but bad batsman
Alok Kapali did not perform
Ashraful's performance was less than what we expected.

So this is what I would do: Give Mushfiq a chance in the last match with Kenya and Insert either Sakib or Farhad Reza. A wholesale replacement causes team morale, but we should know for fact we need a batsman-wk-keepers, not just a wki-keeper in the long run.
Masri is stili the best bowler, but needs a few sessions with team psychologists
Bashar's presence has a relationship with the consistency of our middle order, but he is now more balanced a batsman.
Rafiq also did not produce with the bat, but somehow compensated with his bowling.
Our tail did not click this time at all.

Just do not lose the series to Kenya - I pray

[desirocker]

Javed Omar Belim ( from ODI ) and
