I have said this before and I will say it again, we have a star in our hands. This is the next Mashrafe mark my words. He is tall, furiously fast and will only get better and he takes wickets. I can't wait to see him play for our national team.
well lets nurture him properly then. wasn't he give a shot in a BCB XI game and got smashed? obviously not ready for senior international cricket yet but any talent in the pace bowling ranks must be dealt with in the best way to develop them.

Our another BC Over hyped Nazmul can only dream of bowling a bouncer that would go over keepers head.... So Taskin's hype is far more justified...
That was clearly some awkward bounce brought about by the pitch. Nonetheless he does look like he has some real pace in him. Looking forward to seeing more good performances from him.

When the pitch creates an awkward bounce with Nazmul bowling, it usually bounces ten times before keeper gets it. Awkward bounce for Taskin ends up over keepers head, thats the only difference...
good pace, can get good bounce due to his height. he's got potential, real potential, let's hope he's nurtured because in a few years we could have rubel, abul and taskin to choose from when it comes to pace, and taskin looks to get the most bounce out of these guys and for me that's a huge weaopn.

I'm not sold on Abul...he did have one of the greatest Youth ODI careers in the history of the game, but he's been quite ordinary in the handful of T20 matches he's played. But of course T20 is a horrible place to judge anyone's game.

yup, abul has a lot to prove, no performance no selection. can't just be selected purely because he has pace, needs to be able to back-up with performances to hold his spot.

Reminds me of Mashrafe because of the heart and look, reminds me of Dale steyn because of close to body action and late ripping off action, he is just 16, if Abul can manage a 10 mph jump from his u-19 days to national team days then I see this kid as being the fastest bowler in Bangladesh.

with his pace and height i think about the WI greats, more recently steven finn is in a similar mould with pace, height and bounce, alan donald, courtney walsh the list could go on. he has the attributes to be a really good fast bowler.

Albeit T20 is the worst place to judge any player. He could still be a good ODI bowler, he could still be a good Test bowler. So far he's a crappy T20 bowler. But thats all we know.
Anyone know just how tall Taskin is? He seems to be no taller than 6-1 or around there.

Thought he was 16 when we first heard of him which would have been about a year ago I think so reckon he'd be at least 17, Facebook profile is more likely to be correct I'd think....

In terms of height and bounce that's all, those traits are more rare these days in international cricket, never underestimate bounce as a weapon it's what made a lot of past fast bowlers successful. Of course taskin is just at his beginning, hopefully he develops well.

I have seen Taskin bowl during the U-19 WC match against SL.
He has got good pace and he is aggressive. Surely very raw at the moment and loose control when tries to bowl fast. Yes, in his run-up, attitude, there is a shadow of Mashrafee in him. Definitely a prospect for the future and no doubt he will play for Bangladesh.
