Who should be kicked out of the Test Squad for good?

[Orpheus]

Vote away... multi votes allowed. Let's see the consensus. I think we need a fresh new top order.

[Slysaint]

ashrafool, rokibul for now.

[Orpheus]

please add Sakib, Tamim, Shahadat there as well....

[simon]

KAmal & the Pirate.

[Nafi]

Shafiul

[Naimul_Hd]

tired of voting out...but hardly any solution. All the so called openers Imrul, SN, JS along with ASH are voted out !

[Nafi]

You guys being silly, it was only shakib and ash who gave away their wickets.

[Nadim]

Ashraful
Junaid-out of form
SN-need more practice in NCL

[Nadim]

My 15 man squad for next Test series against NZ would be...
1)Mashrafe Mortaza (Captain)
2)Shakib-Al-Hasan
3)Mushfiqur Rahim
4)M.Riyad
5)Tamim Iqbal
6)Nayeem Islam
7)Rakibul Hasan (final chance for him, if he fails drop him for ever)
8)Imrul Kayes/Junaid
9)Rajin Saleh
10)Faisal Hossain
11)S.Shuvo/Talha Jubair
12)Rubel Hossain
13)Shahadat Hossain
14)M.Robin
15)Shafiul Islam

SN-Go and have a hair cut
Ash-It's time for you to concentrate on singing.

Review of today's wickets:

1.Imrul: Unlucky, though he should be more dominant on his legs but nonetheless it wasn't out; so we can't complain.

2 Tamim: Ball jagged back, no feet movement, no shot adjustment despite having seen the ball fall on an awkward length.

3. Junaid: Again, should be more dominant on his legs. Also a bit jittery at the beginning, which is okay but as an international player playing internation cricket, we expect better show in adjusting to diff situations.

4. Rokibul: Tried the same sort of shots several times, timed not a single one. Why go for a shot which you're not doing good at the moment. Int. match isn't a place for you to hone your shots especially not when you're 3 down. Play shots which you're comfortable with.

5. Ash: Was looking so good with some of those shots he had played (despite some edginess), as if that fastest fifty-wala match against India in the same ground came back. Was getting to his fifty nicely but suddenly what the heck, 4 down with 44 runs on the boards; and you're going for a SIX? Utmost outrageous, you expect better character and personality form a 25 year old guy who has been playing int. cricket consitantly for around 9-10 years.

6. Shakib: Played okay. But kept flirting around outside off-stump. That particular delivery of Zaheer swang away too much, but even if it had bene hit for four, that shot isn't supposed to be tried in the first place.

7. Mushy: No complaints. it was a good ball, came back in and kept a bit low as well.

8. Shahadat: First of all, you're a tailender. Second of all, does reaching the tail means the innings has to finish within next couple of overs? Why do you need to think that just coz it's 7-8 wicket down it's time to get all out and score some quick runs. If it was ODI, I would've understood; but you don't go score runs yourself as a tailender, you give as much strike as you can to the guy who is more capable of scoring runs. Let it be a 50 runs partnership without a single boundary, but that's better than 2 4s in a row and them bamm, OUT!

10 and 11: Would've told them the same thing as above for what they did the previous match, but this time around they listened to it and knew their roles. Though both deliveries they got out to could've left alone and defended in front of stumps respectively. But well, as tailenders, they did their part.

Mah Man is My Man..whaaddaaplaayerrr!!! Just hope no brain-boom happens to him any soon, keep going with the same vain Riyad, you'll do well.

Pacers are doing a decent job, despite not getting wickets. Shahdat, Shafiul, Rubel all are very different in nature. We may add Talha & Sajid to the squad.

S.N. will be a huge failure in those seaming conditions.
Batting may be taken care by tamim, junaid, imrul, rakib (yes, last chance for him), shakib, Mahmudullah, Naeem, Mushfiq.

Last time, Junaid and Sajid played well there. That's why we should include them.

[BD-Shardul]

If our boys keep performing like that, time is not far when no one will play against us. That will be a virtual kick-out from the test world.

[Jesus87]

Who needs to go?
Ashraful.
That isn't happening in this decade as well.

[oporajeyo_bangla]

This test squad *is* actually the best we have. Why do you think anyone else would do better? As far as I know, all of our players are in the 20-25 age range. The maturity Riyad showed today gives me hope for the future! Youngsters like these will eventually push out players like Ashrafool, who seem to have taken their place in the team for granted. It's only a matter of time InshAllah!

Remember that India scored only 11 runs more than we did in their first innings in the first test, and then scored 400+ runs. I hope our players will learn quickly from their mistakes and bat sensibly in the second innings to salvage some pride.

[Neel Here]

I was looking at the domestic stats of the BD players and I find a number of players who have better first class avg than the ones in the team !

how effed up is this selection process ? also, once a player has been dropped after not performing in intl cricket, has played for a while, why not give him another chance ? may be he will perform better this time. this is how gambhir's career took off.

why not give a chance to players like rajin saleh and nafis iqbal ?

We always select our team based on TALENT. Pundits say our first class is crap so first class record is not considered when team is seelcted

I agree! If I may add Rocqibul is the worst player in the team. I have seen way better then him in Bangladesh team before.It is time to see is their any Mahmudulla or Rahim sitting in the sideline or not.

It is kinda funny we had similar thread for Javed Omar. There were hundred remove Javed thread. Let me ask have we found anybody better then Javed yet? Imrul, Junaid how are they working out?

[lamisa]

i just dont get y ashraful should play 4 bd at all!!!he should be replaced by aftab and rokibul should be replaced by kapali.

ya and get what in return? Aftab is just another ash who throws his wicket away like anything..also he's a lazy *** bum..we dont need no more lazy bums..and what has alok done to warrant a selection over rokibul? in every stat rokibul is much better then this overrated alok..

[M.H.Rubel]

Drop Ash and Junaid last chance for Rokibul.I want to see Naeem in the team.On the other hand i still believe that SN is a talented player he needs some time.
