Art of winning, well, our team needs to learn the art of winning from tough situations. That England WC match was a good example. Apart from that I CANT remember even once where we won from a losing situation.

The day we start winning from losing positions, we can be so much better

"jaa baba! Onek boro bhashon diye fellam"

well, I def. can understand how our players feel when they lose. But the issues is that our player keep on saying "Koto je koshto paise kemne bolbo". Our players should always be mentally prepared incase they lose, and to ensure that they dont lose they should work much much harder. If they really wanted to win so bad, then they should try to prepare themselves as well as they can B4 a single ball is bowled. Even after that our team may lose...but our players need to be mentally strong and always be prepared to fight back in the next match.

mate the only person that needs to be mentally prepared is you. to prevent us all hearing your rants after the game, please mentally prepare yourself that , yes BD may lose today, they might fail to perform. Get mentally strong now so you can prepare to fight back and watch the next match and support them without throwing a tanty.

Id beg to disagree. We were never in a position to lose badly because tamim, jahurul and nasir held the batting lineup solidly.

Yes it was true that we had to score 33 from 3 overs, but nowadays thats no big deal and remember, we had wickets, inform batsman at the stage, and our opponents had Pathan, Kumar and ? to bowl.

In the final had we won we cudve said that we won from a losing position because our batsman struggled so much and not to mention the strenght of our oppoenents bowling attack. We had like 55 to score from 5 with batsman like riad and mushy, and then the tail. Mash's cameo really got us back into the game, regardless of what happened later on

Good article. But winnings isn't everything. It's about TOTAL DOMINATION. Bangladesh being the minmina team that they are with their minmina goals were NEVER the TREND SETTERS. Whereas Sehwg, Watson, Amla make the game sexy, amader team konomote thaika khaia thakte parle baje. Arrrey, koidin er dunia. Ektu entertain tentertain korle ki hoy na? Eishob boring score kore, mediocre goal/win niye ashleo amar kichu ashe jay na.

Go out there to humiliate and intimidate opponents. If not, don't play cricket.

Clive Lloyd's team, Steve Waugh's team or Ricky Ponting's team?

[godzilla]

the title should have been "Has Shakib and Tamim learned how to win" instead of Bangladesh. Let's face it, ASIA CUPS wins where mostly because of these 2. (Infact most matches won after Bashar era where because of these 2).

[playmaker]

my advice is to make it mandatory to spend at least 12 hours in the GYM a week.

[Tigers_eye]

no. Not without Shakib.

Can you give one more example where we have done that? 55 from 5 ov? You must be kidding. It's Bangladesh we are talking about.

It was a complete losing position for us. Mushy played a miraculous innings to say the least.

Well there arent too many example for BD but other teams have done it plenty of times. And we never needed 55 from 5, it was more like 46 from 30, then it came down to 34 from 18 and that Mushy cameo was not a miracle, it was simply some solid and nerveless striking from him and also some of the most crappy bowling performances.

In modern day cricket, if you think scoring 55 from 5 overs needs a miracle then you are wrong, infact, batting sides nowadays back themselves to get that much runs in the last few overs esp. after the outburst of T20 cricket

We Are talking about BD. Other teams have done many other things that we can't do even by a miracle at this point.

If we haven't done something like that before and we fail to do at present ... It was a miracle, he did it by chance.

[simon]

looks like we have specialized ourselves at chasing. ( although the target has to be not so big ,exception for Ind)

[zinatf]

Will talk about it if we make it to the finals
