How eagerly are you waiting for Bangladesh to get a break?
I have always complained how little we get to play, but today, I find it ironic to say this: I am really hoping for our campaign in this tournament to end so that we fans can concentrate on our own lives.
I have been having a golden time in my own personal life but yet I couldn't cheer myself up Not one hour pass by when I keep worrying about my tigers. I know I don't have to be so connected but what to do? I hope you senior citizens can come up with some remedy, based on your own experience
I am really waiting for the misery to end. What about everyone else?

Our PM should step in and ban cricket from face of BD.
There are more unreasonable things have been done, no one questioned.
This is a valid thing, embarrassment has it's limit!

Lose or win life sucks without BDesh cricket.
I take it as an entertainment, its a sport afterall.
Yes it is also a matter of national pride, specially when we win.

It would be good to see some fight
all the games are walk-overs - I miss that fight.
I am awaiting a fight. Not a win. I'll take the former any day.

Countless hours I have lost not going to work just because had stay up at night to see few "hamba hambas"!! What did I get in return? Stress, mental pain. Yet even now, knowing farely well, I get the urge; what if miracle happens?

Yep. Need a break. Need to get away from home aswell for a change too much cricket home is too much pressure itself on the players too (to perform infront of massive crowds every match), I reckon. We need to go away, and play, take mind of things in a different country might help change the mood, feeling, atmosphere in the team!

The difference between the Khaled Masud era and this era is that he and whoever was with him batted out the 50 overs for a shommanjonok porajoy. This gen can't even do that. They all get out one by one and there is no one who stops the batting collapse!

How else can you win games when both your batting and bowling sucks big time? Isn't cricket primarily about batting and bowling? I mean yeah there's a lot of strategy and fielding work, but we suck at those as well.
1) batting collapse = can't chase easy targets when your bowlers manages to restrict the opposing team (see BAN vs SL ODI in SL tour)
2) weak bowling = can't restrict opposing team even when your batting side did the best they could (see BAN vs PAK in Asia Cup)
3) along with #1 and 2, you have pathetic fielding = makes a fool out of yourself, gives away runs and puts the hard work of a bowler down the drain, it's like asking to get spanked (see BAN vs WI/IND in WT20)
4) along with #1, 2, and 3, you have bad captaincy = unable to grab victory when it's handed to you on a silver platter, a little brain work goes a long way (see all recent BAN games)
5) along with #1,2,3, and 4, you have off-form players = discouraging to rest of team, weakens overall team strength/morale (see Tamim, Razzak, and possibly Riyad)

As poor our players are in the current team, they are still a level ahead of Alok Kapali. The current team is losing by 50 runs, with Kapali around I would expect the team to lost by 60 or even more.
Nasir, Sabbir have potential and if they are guided well they can turn out to be world class batsman. Alop Kapali is just woeful. Has always been like that throughout his career.

Do we have the courage to go on a self-exile from cricket (even from just one format) to work on our issues and come back when ready?
