Read the article. Looks like Tigers_eye ate too many piaju and Halim before writing this article, otherwise how could he...

It is well written but I would like to add the word 'almost' with it. From an active from this forum, I was expecting little more optimistic prediction about BD from the writer. At least it could be written that Bangladesh and West indies share 50% chances equally to qualify from the preliminary round.
Other than this small issue, I congratulate the writer for taking time to write a good realistic article.

Nice one...A good read...In fact, I liked that the writer has accepted the reality that BD probably don't have any chance to become champion in CT, but his second pick is BD as his personal favourite.

Miracles sometime happen, and I am in the same league with the author who want to hope that our BD will make it, at least upto the main stage.

Good article Tigers_Eye.

But i might have to disagree with you in one incident.
India's chances of winning the trophy is no less no more than Australia.
yes it is their homeland, but i highly doubt the indians would pull it thru.
they are good, but not good enuf.

Go Australia all the way,
Offcourse after Bangladesh.
