We're making decent progress. In the last era, our horrible 0-11 2014 record really set us back. Still we have the same W-L ratio as 8th ranked West Indies (just behind them on the 3rd decimal place). We could have easily beaten SL, PAK, IND twice, and WI and been 19-24, which would have put us at 7th in win-loss ratio, ahead of both WI and Pakistan.

Realistically we can target WI, PAK, ENG, and SL and see if we can nab the 5th rank in ODI cricket by the next world cup.

I was thinking exactly the same. We somehow need to find another couple of fast bowlers bowling over 140 Kmph to put pressure on Taskin and Rubel to perform, a leggy in Jubair and bring back Shohag.

Do you have a home vs away vs neutral breakup?
