He will field, and field all day, instead of getting a break from the game and relax with his legs up on a chair. Worse than his lack of production is the manner he has been getting out. For someone who gets out more often than anybody in the line-up after getting set is simply unacceptable. Very important for him to realize this.

The idea/strategy is not that bad. Big Z needs to realize and he also will suffer complexity next match as expectation rose and his confidence level diminished due to bad performances last couple of matches. Rahim or Naeem can be tried.
Fielding and Wicket keeping got to be improved, I have a feeling that Zimb will come hard at us this time. Sakib needs to play a captain's knock to ensure nothing goes against us.

Sounds like 10:30 p.m. to me, going by the BC countdown and end of DST.

I guess this will be the series winning game for us. The 3rd ODI was somewhat disappointing. The reason we won was because Zimbabuwe was not upto their standard. Pretty poor performance from them. We were a little better team, couple of us played a little better than then and we won. Batting was a disaster (except TI and MA) and we cannot go and face any of the big teams with this kind of batting performance.

His problem always used to be stupid strokes. More recently though, he has not been connecting bat to ball. He is swatting for flies outside his off stump. A real sad sight for me at least.
I think he needs a break because the international stage is not the place for a player to find form back (Even though our local matches are utter cr*p half the time; Good to know that it is getting more competitive of late though). If he is not given a break he could also be batting in place of Naeem for a while. That could work in both ways.
Lets see what decision our team takes though. It will be interesting how they solve this puzzle 'coz clearly Riyad and Naeem both do not fit in that line-up.

playing at #3 requirs a good eye 4 da ball and good judgement..especialy in the fast pitches..ash lacks da latter..but he can see through da best deliveries of the best bowlers more than anyone in da team..

If we bat first we need to pile up enough to initiate a collapse later.

Hahaha! To what do I deserve this honor!
Anyways, the whole post is very classic. You have good hand in writing...nice and innovative thread design strategy. Hopefully it will be a lucky charm to a mammoth piling of score if BD bats first.

Thanks Noc bhai, Antora and Zeeshan
Since it's going to be a day match morning dews are gonna play a huge role in the first half and hour. If Bangladesh bowl first I hope Nazmul will put the deliveries in the right spot. What is the trend of this stadium's pitch? Slow low or even bounces?
Looking for the first time 300+ innings of the series.

The pitch here might be different, but BD has to win this game to win the series, I am always rooting for them, I think this is the last international series for them for the year.

Quote:
পুরো সেশনটাই বোলিং নিয়ে ব্যস্ত থাকলেন মোহাম্মদ আশরাফুল। নেটে ওভারের পর ওভার অফ স্পিন করলেন। হঠাৎ দেখলে কেউ ভাবতে পারেন ব্যাটিং ছেড়ে আশরাফুল বোধহয় পুরোদস্তুর বোলার হতে চান। কিন্তু বাংলাদেশের সাবেক অধিনায়কের কাছে দুটোই এখন গুরুত্বপূর্ণ। এখন যে অলরাউন্ডার হওয়ার জন্য মরিয়া মোহাম্মদ আশরাফুল! এ ইচ্ছের কথা লুকোনওনি তিনি, কারণ জানাতে গিয়ে বললেন, "ব্যাটিং-বোলিং দুটোতেই সমান দক্ষ হলে একাদশে থাকার সুযোগ বেশি। এখন তো ব্যাটসম্যানদের বাড়তি কিছু থাকতেই হয়। এক জায়গায় ব্যর্থ হলে অন্য জায়গায় পুষিয়ে দেয়া যায়। তাই আমি চেষ্টা করছি বোলিংয়ে ভালো করতে।"
এরই মধ্যে ১৫০টি ওয়ানডে খেলে ফেলেছেন মোহাম্মদ আশরাফুল। বাংলাদেশের বেশ কিছু স্মরণীয় জয়ের নায়ক তিনি। তারপরও কি এ মুহুর্তে দলে নিজের অবস্থানকে নড়বড়ে ভাবছেন?
কোচ জেমি সিডন্সের কথায় সেরকম ইঙ্গিত না পাওয়া গেলেও হালে আশরাফুলের ব্যাটিংয়ে যে সমস্যা চোখে পড়ছে সে কথা উঠে এলো ঠিকই, "আশরাফুলের ব্যাটিংয়ে কিছু সমস্যা আছে। ও পেছনের থেকে টেনে এনে ব্যাট করে না। ফলে বলের গতির সঙ্গে তাল মেলাতে পারে না। তাই মাঝেমাঝে অতি সাধারণ বলেও আউট হয়ে যায়।"
বিষয়টি নিয়ে আশরাফুেলর সঙ্গে কথা বলেছেন সিডন্স। সে অনুযায়ী ব্যাটিং নিয়ে আশরাফুল কাজও শুরু করে দিয়েছেন। বিডিনিউজ টোয়েন্টিফোর ডটকমকে রোববার সে কথাই বললেন,"হ্যাঁ, আমি ব্যাট নিচে রেখেই খেলার চেষ্টা করি। এ ভুলটা আগে কোনো কোচই ধরিয়ে দেননি। জিমি (জেমি সিডন্স) বিশেষব যত� সহকারে ব্যাটিং স্টাইল পরিবর্তনের কাজে সাহায্য করছেন। আশা করি সবকিছু ঠিক হয়ে যাবে।"
জিম্বাবুয়ের বিপক্ষে গত ম্যাচে ৬৩ রানের চমৎকার এক ইনিংস খেলেছিলেন। সেটা ছাড়াও স�প্রতি কয়েকটি ইনিংসে তাকে একটু ধৈর্যশীল মনে হয়েছে, আশরাফুল নিজেও মানলে সে কথা,"আগে শুরু থেকেই মেরে খেলতাম। এখন চেষ্টা করছি শুরুতে ধরে খেলে পরে রান তুলতে। এই পরিবর্তন দেখে দর্শকরা গ্যালারি থেকে নানা কথা বলেন। কিন্তু সে চাপ নিয়েই নিজেকে স্থির রাখতে হচ্ছে (ব্যাটিংয়ে) ধারাবাহিক হওয়ার জন্য।"

I definitely expect Tamim to go the distance once more as do I for Ash. The pace bowling woes continue. I liked how the management was man enough to come in with 1 pacer for the 3rd ODI. According to Chittagong pitch, I think we should try with Nazmul and Shahadat and Razzak. If the pitch looks bad for pace, bring in Enamul for Nazmul/Shahadat.

All experiment should be done after the series is sealed. Agree or disagree?

Agree....very important match ...Batsmen (atleast two of them have to score big) have to play a major role ...Ctg might be batting friendly pitch..

In this series I just hope the following:
1. Once Set, Tamim go for the century with caution.
2. Consider this ODI as a career survival innings. Its getting harder and harder to justify his inclusion in ODI.
3. Ash selects less risky shots to hit a ball and continue to concentrate on building an innings first. With his skill, he don't need to hack a ball to maintain a healthy RR.
4. I hope Rakibul play the anchor role again, atleast at the begining of his innings.
5. I hope Sakib use Nazmul more and set Naeem's role and expectation and let him play accordingly.
6. I hope Ryiad prevent any more slippage in this series and continue to grow as he did in last couple of years and surpised a few including myself.
7. I hope Rahim understand that, wicket keeping is his primary role, batting is a plus. He is such a disapointment as wicket keeper. May be its time for him to think about giving up WC and concentrate more as specialized batsman. I think there is his strength.
8. I feel Naeem is confused about his role and expectation from him. And I blame to the management for that. If Naeem bats at #8, that means, he needs to bowl more and often. Looks like they used him as a #7th bowler behind Ashraful. Sakib need to set up Naeem's role and let him be successful or failure. Right now I don't know what's is his real role in the team. A bowling all-rounder? a batting all-rounder? a specialized bowlers? a future specialized batsman? Who knows. And may be thats why a confused Naeem is going nowhere.
9. I hope more confident Enamul shows his worth in a team, specially when we play at home.
10. I hope Razzak come back as a slogging batsman also, the way he used to be a year ago.
11. Nazmul is a specialized bowler and only FB in the team and he was bowling pretty good in 3rd ODI. We underused him in 3rd ODI. Who knows, we may just missed the opportunity to see getting his 5th wicket in 3rd ODI. I hope, if he play like last ODI, we use him more.
