Another thread should be there named
"**** The Official Everything Mohammed Ashraful Does not Thread"

[zainab]

I was looking at my cricket channel a few days ago and they were showing highlights of the 2003 WC game between Bangladesh and NZ, one of the openers was no other than Ash. He scored 56 runs and the little guy looked so happy there. He took a lovely catch of mahmud's bowling, and he ran to Mahmud and gave him a spontaneous hug. One could see that he was a teenager.
I heard that world cup was a nightmare for BD.
I agree that BCB used him too much in his early years in international matches, and they experimented with him in the batting order, I think he should play at 4 or 5.
He still has the same strokeplay, also IMO since Siddons came as coach, his batting has deterioted, because Siddons is trying to change his style of batting, he should leave him alone, just tell him not to loft the balls in the air.At this stage, he cannot change, the damage has already been done, he should have played more first class cricket and played in the A team for a few years, but was elevated to test and international player too quickly. Not only this, but expectations of him was too high, and he has failed to meet fan's expectations, also mentally, he was never ready at such an early age.He knows that he has failed, and one can see his frustration, e.g. slapping a disgruntled fan etc.
England has many loyal fans who follow them around the world when they are playing whether they win or lose, they have the loyal support of their fans. and England is slated at N07 in the ICC ranking and they have been playing cricket since the 1830
Now, after watching that match, it was not a bad performance and only one player has survived in the national team and that is Ashraful. In 4 years all the others have gone, so who knows what will happen by the tme the next world cup comes around.
Hopefully, Siddons says that he will keep a squad together for 2 years and let them play together, which is a good plan.
When Southee made a quick test 50 for NZ, they also highlighted that Mohamad Ashraful made the second fastest 50 in test cricket at Dhaka.
In as much as he has failed more often than succeed, he has some notable records to his name, BD cannot forget that he has made them win matches against the top 2 teams in the world, so I hope fans do not write him off as a has been already.
He is still young and will improve.
I hope that I do not annoy some fans here in my defense of Ash, but one has to look at the whole forest and not a few trees.

Ash eyes 1 or 2 wins

What should he say?

He should say, we need to focus on your own ability and perform the best we can in all three departments of the game. Would try to entertain everyone as best as we can; If that gives us 1 win so be it. If that gives us the series so be it.

1) With this 1 or 2 wins thingi one will find ah!! he is already thinking negative.

2) Like the reporter is saying in his last sentence, "the little man promised like he always does before any tour."

Ash needs more coaching in how to talk to the media for team's sake.

I hope I am wrong. Thats give a feeling that he will go "same as ususal" licence to kill and looking for jodi laigga jai type "Eid Day". It may excite some fans, but it saddens me because if that is true then, we are not achieving anythyng under Siddon. It may be ok before under Dav as it was giving us much needed life and something to cheer about. But at some point we have to think when we will take one step forward and go with a planned way to move forward.

[bujhee kom]

on a serious note, i totally agree with tiger-eye bhai, ashraful should be coached on speaking better to the media! maybe with more depth and creatively! it's important for the sake of the team, no doubt!

I also think so. immediate Focus should be, after loosing. Later, on winning when it will be more regular.

It is specially hard to speak after loosing, which he has to do too often. Words after loosing affects more, as every brain is a little abnormal.

After winning, who cares what he says, everything sounds like 'Beethoven's Symphonies' as it is once in a while and doesn't sound repeatative, at the moment.

Somedays ago he gave an interview in Prothom Alo satire Ross+Alo. Here it is,
