Where is Md Shahazada?
I think Tareq Aziz is not playing. He is going to sit for his HSC(?) Exam.

Tareq Aziz,

PM me if you need a NOKOL supplier.

Shehwar · #12 February 21, 2005, 12:27 PM

Can someone plz let cricinfo know that this is just a BCB XI and not our national team.......!!!

Ahmed_B · #13 February 21, 2005, 01:06 PM

well.. the question is, if the Indian board asked for a BCB XI or the Bangladesh National Team?

If they hav invited the 'Bangladesh national team' to the Tournament... and BCB has sent this team.. then guys... this is the BD National Team!

Any web-source to find out the actual fixture by the Indian Board? What is our team OFFICIALLY named there?:duh:

There seems to hav been a possible miss-communication..

bdmoderator · #14 February 21, 2005, 03:23 PM

Good Luck To BCB XI.

al Furqaan · #15 February 21, 2005, 03:47 PM

talha will impress...it seems east zones players are mostly bengalis...as are all of ours :embaressed:

cisco-guy · #16 February 21, 2005, 04:38 PM

Neither Masrafee nor Tapash is playing. And without Nazmul Hossaain, it will be a tough one for the BCB XI team. Now we are left with Talha Jubair and Tareq Aziz.

go BCB go

Mahir · #22 February 21, 2005, 06:26 PM

nafees isnt playing either!
read the other thread about this match...

Sham · #23 February 21, 2005, 07:42 PM

There is a chance of rain in the morning in Nagpur. We should probably bowl first if we win the toss, given that its a green top and there is a chance of rain. Should be quite a bit of swing for our seamers. Also, if there are a couple of rain delays, its better that it affects their batters' concentrations than ours!

chyicarus · #24 February 21, 2005, 07:52 PM

In India, I doubt how long the wicket is going to stay green. It all depends on the conditions that morning. Its really hard to judge what to do winning the toss. Its better if we lose the toss!
Rain won't hamper the batting conditions- likewise it will also dampen the bowlers' rhythm.

Sham · #25 February 21, 2005, 07:57 PM

Yeah you are right. Definitely a hard one to call. However, if the bowlers lose there rhythm, they'll get an over or two to try to get it back. The batsmen need only make one mistake and its all over for them!
