I swear, if 1/10th of Scotland's trash talk were actual runs, they would go through the World Cup unbeaten.

I am sure if they knew playing cricket just the way they talk, surely they would have been unbeaten champion in this worldcup

I agree.

"No one would underestimate Australia just because they had some setbacks" is what they are trying to say. Also, they have showed "cautious optimism". I can appreciate thier assertiveness, Habibul has 1/10th of it. If they keep believeing, and keep thinking of any opponents as equal, they will do better faster.

You've got to get over the mental hurdle, which has been one of the most nagging problem for Bangladesh. Too much respect for the opponent. Can't have that. Let the Scots talk. It can not harm us. They might do unexpectedly well. If they do, that is not bad for us.

yea scotland advancing would be good for us...

- easier if we also progressed
- would prove minnows value

Yeah, but if you don't have wins over test teams to back up the talk you just end up looking stupid, Kenya's beaten test teams at least 3 times and you don't see them shooting their mouths off like that.

Hmm.. I think this was the product of miscommunication. The way he said it was suss but if you think about it, you can tell he's trying to say something subtlely different, but alot more reasonable. Think about it. It's very difficult to put across but I understood it right away.
