Zimbabwe ODIs: Enamul Jr. to replace Razzak

[Miraz]

Tour of Zimbabwe 2009: Enamul Haque Jr. to replace Abdur Razzak
Left-arm spinner Abdur Razzak has a strained hamstring and has been ruled out of Bangladesh’s Tour of Zimbabwe 2009. Razzak suffered the injury while batting during the third and final ODI against the West Indies at St. Kitts on Friday.

Fellow left-arm spinner Enamul Haque Jr. will replace Razzak on the Tour of Zimbabwe. Enamul is due to join the Bangladesh Team in Dubai on Wednesday, 05 August and will fly to Zimbabwe with the squad. Razzak would return home to continue with his recovery.

Opportunity for Enamul, But I am not so sure if he will be very useful. Could have tried some new guys. Enam isn't great with the bat either.

[Blah]

I am not a big fan of enamul either. But I can't think of anyone else who can be a good replacement. perhaps an allrounder?

[Eshen]

WTF! Razzak has been pulled out of a tour because of a strained hamstring! How long a hamstring pull take to recover?!

The move seems fishy to me. May be he and the team management have realized that he needs more time to adapt to his new action and using this as an excuse to send him home?

Why does it seem fishy to you? LMAO

hamstring pull is a very commonw sports related injury and depending on the severity it can take weeks - months. Here is some info for you to read up on.

Thanks for the info. But he came to collect his medal walking on his own feet, right? I don't remember seeing him limping. So, I am having hard time to believe he is having such a severe case of hamstring pull that he has to be ruled out of a tour.

You don't have to be severly injured to be taken out of the team. Some cases are precautionary so that you don't further aggravate an already strained hamstring. If you are on a stage one injury and keep playing with that it will get worse - resulting in longer recovery time (months instead of weeks). Why risk that? Specially when Razzaq is an important player in the team.


Just because you didn't see him limping doesn't mean he doesn't have an injury.

The management is risking Sakib who is having a chronic case of groin injury. He should have been sent to London, take an injection for his left groin (like he had taken for his right groin in past), rest there for five days and then join the team. But he is being risked for the sake of the team, which makes Razzak's case even more suspicious.

If this is true, I think, it needs to stay confidential for the interest of the team and the country.

In Zimbabwe, quick bowlers will be important. Not spinners. But it is a good opportunity for Enamul to do something in ODI and foriegn soil as well. Good Luck.

Actually, word is that the pitch used in the series will be spinner friendly. Which makes sense as Zimbabwean spinners are much better than their pacers. Our batsmen are not that great against spinners either. So, our spinners are likely to turn out to be our key players once again.

I think Zimbabwean team will put up better fight compared to west indies and i also think that they will be more disciplined in their approach. So i hope that our team does not become complacent.

BTW, good news for Enamul.

If your information is true than it can be suicidal for Zimbabwe. Their batters are better to play quick ball than spin. Our batters will be more comfortable to play spin comparing with quick ball.

Let see.

It's a gamble, no doubt. But keep in mind that Zimbabwe won 2 out of 4 ODIs against Bangladesh team in Bangladesh earlier this year because of their spinners. Now they think their spin department is even more stronger with inclusion of Cramer, a leggie (and that kind of bowlers have shown good success against Bangladesh in past).

On the other hand, after playing Sammy and Roach, our batsmen will be comfy playing Zimbabwean medium pacers even if they are given a pacy wicket.

Queens Sports Club is a spin friendly wicket that will favor spin and accurate pace bowling, In the previous series ZC did not want Bang to play us there because they feared the worst but since our team has greatly improved in as far as slow bowling is concerned ZC bowed down to complains by Bulawayo people who wanted a piece of the action in their city. We have our much improved spin bowlers in Utseya, Masakadza and Price so it will be an evenly matched battle in as far as team composition is concerned.

Syed Russel - Tawanda Mupariwa (accuracy )
Mahababul - Ransnsford (can swing the ball a bit)
Shakid - Chigumbura (allrounders)
Tamim - Hamilton (explosive opener)

etc etc

Hey Andy, welcome back. We have a surprise for you. His name is Naeem.

Zunaed seems to getting hold of things now. So batting is okay for BD.

My concern would be the bowling and restricting the opponents.

Yes real problem is wiping the tail off. Naeem should bat at 3/4.

I hope he's not gonna beat up our players..

why enamul?

Shuvo would had been a good replacement...

Exactly...I was thinking the same way....Shuvo is a good allrounder

Ah yes, but enamul has the key quality called experience.

I'm happy he's starting to justify the predictions of those like McInnes made of him so long ago. He's allegedly in his early 20s, so still has enough time to fulfill his early promise...

[Shubho]

Yes, I am a great allrounder...but noone gives me a decent chance.

Ai hai, Shubho dada apni? Ekhaane? Kemon achen re bhai, salaam!

[Sohel]

Good luck to Enam. I hope he takes this opportunity with both hands ...
