So, can our batsman really chase 400?

Can they?

Before talking big about scoring 400 against top teams, atleast try to score 275+ against minnows. Oh wait, how can we do that when Sir Sabbir Rahman will score only single digit scores.

This happens as soon as one of them opens their big mouth! Once tamim said about vittori of zimbo then u all say the result. Now sabbir opened his mouth about scoring 400s finds himself having bad lucks! And can't score any runs!

That is why I feel we need to keep our mouth shut and just talk on the field. Action speaks louder than words

The Way they were batting today trying to hit everything out of the park seems like they wanted to post 400, but mistimed many shots or wrong shot selection happened.Trying to hit everything out of the park on a slow pitch is a very BAD idea...Watson and many others get away with it because of Muscle and timing proper cricket shots from the middle of the bat. Most of our Batsmen do not have the physical strength to clear the boundary at will. until the Batsmen develop strong muscles, I don't think Bangladesh will ever cross 400...

It is mostly due to wrong shot selection and premeditated shots....If Bangladesh put their mind to it, They can get close to 350 but i think that's as far as they will go.

In the kind of wickets we saw yesterday muscle power wasn't exactly necessary. Just push and nudge. Too many shots in the air for my liking.

After playing in Mirpur for over 10 years it seems our batsman still don't know the way to play here when the wicket is slow
