The Ashraful debate: Should he be included in WC squad?

[Jadukor]

i share the same sentiments with ma_o_mati

Riyad/Naeem have not done anything to cement their place... we have too many players who can play secondary to a great player but cannot take control of the game on their own... Kaes can play supporting role to Tamim if Tamim fires... can he push the run rate himself to 5-6 an over?
Riyad, Naeem both can rotate the strike given that Shakib is with them to hit the boundaries... Can either of these two do it on their own? These are the question that bugs me... Naeem's last notable performance was that match winning innings against zim...but that was long ago and he hasn't reproduced anything significant since... his ugliest performance was against the afghans where our national pride was at stake after the comments made by Rashid Latif... Thankfully we had a kid named Shabbir with some balls...and he rescued us from a hopeless position.

If this is a comparison between Nayeem, Riyad, Johirul, Rokibul, Junaid, Alok ......... and Ash.
It's uneven and unfair comparison. Ash is way way ahead from anyone of them.

Problem is Nayeem's 20 makes people happy and Ash needs a century to match that. Why?
Get your anti Ash minds out for the interest of the team.

I'm not yet sure if Ash will be in the team in every combination, so just waiting to see the list coming out.

[irteja]

There is no place for Ashraful and Rokibul in the team.

1. Tamim Iqbal,

2. Imrul Kayes,

3. Shahriar Nafees,

4. Mushfiqur Rahim,

5. Shakib Al Hasan,

6. Mahmudullah,

7. Naeem Islam,

8. Abdur Razzak,

9. Mashrafe Mortaza,
10. Shafiul Islam,

11. Rubel Hossain,

12. Shahadat Hossain,
13. Junaid Siddique,

14. Suhrawadi Shuvo and

15. Alok Kapali.

No, Ashraful shouldn't be picked. We have better players now.

Can't agree more.

And that moron just scored another 85!! He always does that,,whenver he is out of the team, he will start scoring runs and gets back into the team with his performance and starts to contemplate on his batting techniques in slow motion whilst bowler is bowling real-time...!!

[PoorFan]

Sometime I wonder if that moron gets some special favor from local umpires.

He was in good form in domestic league before the Zimbabwe series. But he got only one chance against them which was really unfair.

When you let someone make a comeback, you give him at-least two games to prove him.

[munnabhai]

Ashraful will be selected whether you like it or not. I voted No.

[munnabhai]

Ashraful will be selected whether you like it or not. But, it will create problem in Shakib's performance, the captain doesn't want Ashraful in the side, he has made his intentions very clear, he prefers Rakib over Ashraful, he has every right to have his say in team selection. If Ashraful comes back, Tamim will get out cheaply, have you guys forgotten the runouts Ashrafool caused. Please Bring Ashraful, take one wicket and get the other free. Opposition would love to have a ball at him.

If he really understood his own game then he would try to revert to a #7 role by playing power shots and practice his bowling more. He still thinks after all these years he can bat in the top order still.

As if he is educated enough to understand this statement he may have played 150+ matches but who gave him all these chances BCB gave him most chances compared to other players BCb has been very kind to him to give him chance he is just taking advantage to make money . He is not a talented player at all FLUKE win can happen in cricket. Better Give Rokibul a chance or even Jahurul islam a chance BD is a much better team without Ashraful.
Why is BCB doing so much lobbing its not helping the team anyways.
ASH should retire so he can hold his so called glory and honor among the fans.
I hope shakib does not take him in the squad this is going to be huge mistake he will play the first match and throw his wicket and he will have nothing to do but retire.

all ash needs to do is throw his wicket like he does in the first match and loose the match for BD that's it then he is gone no more *** ever . There is a saying in English No matter how much u lie u have to keep on lying to cover the truth but one day people will definitely know the truth.
The Truth is ASH ain't a good player at all neither he is talented. If dav whatmore taught me how to bat and if i get chances to play 150+ odi's i can do better than ASH too in fact anyone who has brains to understand proper cricket can do it.

In that one chance he contributed single digit runs + one run out ... And he has done it umpteenth time. ... that is called 'really unfair' to the team.

Murad has scored 100/100

0/100 as "that someone" should get at least 3 games, preferably 5 games to prove ...

[kalpurush]

Now, per performance, does Ash deserves a seat in the cool 15? No (IMHO, though I am fan of the fool!)

[Rinathq]

Obviously by now he knows he is in the squad, he should start prepping for power play style batting.....

Well you should blame the selectors for that. He wasn't ready to make a comeback but the selectors thought otherwise. He was/is very low in confidence. And he doesn't deserve a place in the world cup squad as well.

This is what I believe, when you give someone a chance to make a comeback, then give him at-least two chance. Be it Ashraful/Kapali/Faisal or whoever it is.

Unfortunately he does, a fair system we should live with. I dont like to see him in cool 15, but yet I have to say, yes. He earned it again.

It all depends on the team MGT how Ash might perform in the WC - certainly Ash is not suitable for two or three down, but for five or six down accroding to recent performances. If he bats lower, he might able to creats some magical performances in the WC

Smart men think alike!!!

[Rinathq]

Well u can't really create " magic" in 6, 7th position.... He just needs to hit confidently that's all.... If he can score anything above 25, over 100 strik rate, it will boost our chances of winning match... Also he can be used 2-3 overs of bowling if needed
