is cricket going down to the same path as soccer
DO you guys remember how popular soccer was a decade ago, even a club match between Fakirapul and Arambagh used to have lots of crowd. After successive failure in the SAAF games and other tournaments, people became so disgusted that it's a forgotten game now.
Well, guys, it seems like cricket is going down the same path. Soon, Ashraful, Mashrafe will be begging to get 1 Lac taka to play for the whole season for a club team.

We had a good game in the last Test and the second Test is still very young.
Please think twice before opening these threads.

I don't think our batting is the way to consolidate someone, as it fails 19 out of 20 times to make an impact. But hopefully today will be one of the exception.

even our out of form basher was offered 50 lakh rupees for 3 years..
the popularity of football mainly went down due to the cricket and we've developed a culture for it after winning the ICC trophy.
at this moment, we only lack in quality batsman. Its only a matter of time when we'll have some star batsman in our side. There's gotta be some talent out of 15 crore people..

No cricket game could ever be as terrible as soccer is. I don't see the cricketers pulling at each others jerseys, pretending to be fouled, or head-butting one another. Nope cricket is the fairest game there is because it is a contact sport without physical contact. You can't exactly sneak up behind the guy when he is batting and trip him can you?
