Yes it is a shame that we couldn't qualify. But we only have ourselves to blame. After beating NZ 4-0 we set ourself up perfectly to take over number 8 position. But we couldn't manage to reach the 2nd round of the world cup, which would have gave us a lot more extra ODI's to play. Even last year after the WC we still had a good chance but we blew it against WI. Had we managed couple more wins in WC, and won the WI series back in 2011 we would have taken over the number 8 position for sure. And the worst part is most likely this is the last time Champions Trophy will actually take place. It's pretty much confirmed that after this edition, it's getting thrown out.

Probably some time last year or whenever they fixed the schedules and groups for the tourney. Oh well.

Bad luck, but this is what you get for being inconsistent. We didn't play good enough to be qualified so let's just focus on wc 2015.

It will be a nice ego check for our boys when they have to sit and watch the rest of the world play out a major tournament. It will be super sad for us fans but at the same time i hope the tigers would get fired up by this and be hungry for bigger success

It's too late to qualify for ICC Champions Trophy. The grouping and date are scheduled for long ago. We should care about World Cup 2015.

Well since we're not going to be competing in this dead and meaningless tournament anyway might as well tour Ireland for an ODI series and a game each against both Scotland and the Netherlands so we can beat them comfortably and shut up our critics that Ireland and that are better than Bangladesh.
