Cheers Ian, talking of "bowlers", one of our main issues with our attack is Sammy is taking up one spot, thats why many WI fans feel we have not been able to put out our best attack for the last few years, but when he's gone i think we'll see a very decent attack take shape, in this series we're missing Kemar Roach who has been a sensation for us this year, as a bowling coach what do you make of him? does he have the potential to be at Steyn, Anderson or Khan's level? in the region we've got plenty of young pacers coming through, a chap named Delorn Johnson who got a 6fer against India-A (which included Pujara btw) recently has been making waves, also Sheldon Cotterrell who had a wonderful tour to Bangladesh last month with our accademy and of course Shannon Gabriel who done well on his test debut vs England this year.

I love Roach... and I feel if he is handled correctly and given the right help, could be terrific. Same goes for Best.

What you need is commitment and responsibility for the team. How can those world class players adjust themselves on any version cause those players know how to put value on their wicket for their country,, they don't play for fun or amusement for themselves rather professionally they apply themselves on every game, adapt themselves for next challenge for their country cause they know they are representing their country. you wanna be world class then act accordingly, stop saying bullshits this is my style or that is the way I play, who cares how you play if you don't bring any good results for your country for which reason you are selected to national team, not for your amusement, then you should have chiriyakhana there lock yourself and play with monkeys not in the national squad. I hope in second innings you bunch of idiots prove us wrong that you deserve your place in national squad !!!....

For those who don't know this game, here's the basic idea:

You and someone you know come to a mutual agreement to become "gama buddies" and select a single trigger word or phrase. Whenever someone utters the aforesaid word or phrase, you can slap him across the face, or hit him on his back, or kick him in the nuts HARD as per the agreement. There's a catch. Once a "gama buddy" always a gama buddy. The agreement comes to an end only when one of you dies. I know people in their 50s and 60s still playing this game in secret.

Pit'he jore kil mara is the most popular blow, followed by a slap across the face.

Hah hah hah .... the gama buddies live a long time do they?

Is this the right Heading in cricinfo? I don't get the implication of the q word. Khulna queers bowler's pitch

Well, I commented on CI on that article and now the headline reads: "Dormant Khulna pitch a bowler's headache"

Can't believe they used that word and then changed it

Not sure why people make statements like this. How else would you know we suck this much ? In any other country, this would have lead to meaningful and consistant responses.

Some do. My late father didn't but at least 3 of his 4 gamma buddies are still alive. One of them tried to get me and his son come to a gamma agreement of our own. Didn't happen.
