Like they say: Once a minnow basher, always a minnow bash.

Drop Nafees vs any bottom 6 teams, in the middle of the night, and he will give you a 50+ innings.

I noticed that O'B's comments are taken very negatively by our BC members, don't get why. But now you know how the Top-7 fans feel about us, when we use that big mouth of ours.

Now, please don't try and explain how it's not the same thing, how what we do is different. No, it is exactly the same thing. "Let the cricket do the talking." - Redneck, I mean Redhead.

i feel the SL trio of shuvo raj and shakib is needed agaisnt IRELAND

7 batsman is enough, no need of the 8th batsman

Agree 100%. I don't know why our selectors and team management want to play 8 batsmen. Playing even 7 is a lot of batsmen. On top of that our batsmen from 1-5 are really dependable now. The only change in my opinion should be naeem/riyad for shuvo. We should bring back the SLA trio. also not keen at all bringin ash back in the lineup.

I hope Nafees gets a game, I don't care which no he comes at, I'm
just desperate to see him bat again...and might I add that I find navjot singh sidhu very biased and arrogant

My prefferred team is :
1) Tamim
2) Imrul
3) Nafis
4) Rakibul
5) Ashraful
6) Shakib
7) Mushfiq
8) Riad
9) Razzak
10) Shafi
11) Rubel
I think we need mushi and riad down the order more then ash or rok, they will build the innings in upper order, We need 5 solid batsman, 1 wkt, 2 pacer, 1 spinner and 2 allrounder which are there, perfectly, Not for this irish match only, we have to go through all the way in this tournament in this way. Whenever mushi or riad play some good innings, everybody start talking, why are not we playing them in up to the batting order, but can't u see, dhoni is a good batsman but he didn't play before kohli or yuvraj. What I am trying to say is it doesn't mean that we have to push them up in batting order, they can contribute from the lower order too whcih is much concern of our team.

I was watching Ireland/England match. The British commentator was remarking that everybody will have to go through Bangladesh to advance to the next round. He particularly noted that Bangladesh game at Chittagong will be particularly hard for England. In response to this other commentator, Manjrekar, remarked that Bangladesh is highly overated. He stated that this is due to their recent successes at home. I was apalled by his remark! We beat England at England and WI at WI last year. Granted that we whitewashed NZ at home. But a whitewash is a whitewash. Is India' whiewashed of NZ is any less significant to them? Why did they even bother to play them. I would like to see if they can whitewash us at India.

allrounder · #**117** February 22, 2011, 01:46 PM

What number mushfiq fits in Bangladesh batting? Is he used to rotate strike and keep the wicket? I think it is time to find an alternate wicketkeeper for Bangladesh.

Eshen · #**118** February 22, 2011, 02:03 PM

I hope Shakib will show his guts, go with the same XI from last match (It's totally unfair to change the team just after one round!), and choose to field again if he wins the toss.

allrounder · #**119** February 22, 2011, 02:10 PM

1. Tamim Iqbal
2. Imrul Kayes
3. Junaid Siddique
4. Raqibul Hasan
5. Shakib Al Hasan
6. Shahriar Nafees/Ashraful/Naeem (if naeem he will bat down after riad.)
7. Mushfiqur Rahim
8. Mahmudullah Riad
9. Abdur Razzak
10. Shafiul Islam
11. Rubel Hossain

need our lower batting order capable of pushing the score 50 more runs.
A 6th bowler with less than 5.0 economy.

With the current players of Bangladesh, we hardly have any option to counter our deficiencies in the above two areas.

russhassan · #**120** February 22, 2011, 02:14 PM

Imrul
Tamim
Junaid
Shakib
Roqibul
Ashraful
Mushfiqur
Shuvo
Razzak
Shafiul
Rubel

Mahmudullah and Nayim are useless batsmen for the number 7 position.

22Yards · #**121** February 22, 2011, 02:23 PM

no need to field first again. Its going to be a day match isnt it ?

I know, like when he said "i wish their team was as good as the stadium"
they r mad cuz they r from calcutta and their match got cancelled.

allrounder · #**123** February 22, 2011, 02:41 PM

what is our record against IR? I think they won 4 and we only won 2 matches in total of 6 matches we played so far. Is that correct?

mishu · #**124** February 22, 2011, 03:00 PM

Guys, this is the world cup. The goal is to get the trophy. the past record of no team matter here.the bottom line is we have to beat all the teams... We will meet India soon again and take the revenge... Ireland and netherland have long wAy to go before they can talk big.

Narees alone can beat this Irish team..
