Do you think Mushfiqur Rahim deserve to play at No.4???

Shaun petr · #1 September 17, 2012, 03:16 PM

All the good performances he did playing at no.6. In Asia cup that wonderful match winning inning was also playing at lower order...He can time the ball and gets the big hits and consistently failing at no.4

Nadim · #2 September 17, 2012, 03:20 PM

Give me ONE name who deserve to play @ 4 ahead of mushy and why?(not shak ofcourse)

Nasir suits more than anyone else.

mali007 · #4 September 17, 2012, 03:41 PM

For T20 I would prefer Zia in Mushi's position .

cricheart · #5 September 17, 2012, 03:55 PM

No. Not fan of Shakib for #3 either. This order not utilizing maximum of Nasir Hossain as well.
Will be dissapointing, if Nasir keep ending up alltime part timer like Mahmulludah in the team.

Nasir was doing fine at 4 in the Asia cup. Why change that?

Look mushy's last 6 innings playing at no.4:
5, 2, 18, 3, 3 and 7.

BANFAN · #10 September 17, 2012, 04:31 PM

NO... I think he is better at # 6/7.. he is good in playing with the tail.

Agree... Nasir should come at # 4 or even # 3 and Shakib @# 4. Nasir needs time to settle. But I don't mind Shakib playing @ # 3 too.

MohammedC · #12 September 17, 2012, 04:45 PM

"Mushy should open the batting with Tamim"

"Mushy is ideal number 3"

"Mushy is the most reliable batsmen in our Batting line up"

Potential future thread title.

This position is cursed, most of our player becomes rubbish when they're put at 3/4 only Bashar was decent and hopefully Shak does well.

Roni_uk · #14 September 17, 2012, 05:46 PM

Mushy will come around on Friday....don't worry...MMW

sharup · #15 September 17, 2012, 08:29 PM

Judging by his most recent performances I'd say yes he does deserve to bat at #4. And look those biceps he's got. Those bad boys are shaping up and perhaps that explains why he's been hitting the balls so hard in ODI (Asia Cup) and in T20

al Furqaan · #16 September 17, 2012, 08:30 PM

Relaxx guys...Mushy has been one of our most reliable if not most reliable bats the past 3 years across formats. What happens in practice matches should stay in practice matches.

cricbook · #17 September 17, 2012, 09:48 PM

hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhel nooooooooooooooooo.......we lost bcas of him....with nas...n sunny r including..

Jadukor · #18 September 17, 2012, 10:18 PM

Personally I would stick with the same order we had in Asia Cup (Ash instead of Nazim of course)

He is a class no doubt in that....but question is getting the perfect slot. No.6 is perfect for him...Playing in top order not taking the responsibility and causing early wickets causes mental collapse to the team. How many matches you can comeback after top order failure???

Imteaz · #20 September 18, 2012, 12:48 AM

Yes, because no other option.

oronnya · #21 September 18, 2012, 12:55 AM

I think Riyad should come up the order in place of Mushy... Mushy is better off playing at the lower middle order...

Gowza · #22 September 18, 2012, 01:18 AM

well mushy is probably the most complete batsman in the BD team. if you look at technique, temperament, skills, ability to play under pressure in all conditions, he's one of the most complete if not the most complete. he has been one of the most consistent of the BD batsmen over the last 3 years though it's not saying to much.

do we stick him back where he performed his best? or do we wait out this inconsistent poor period he is having and possibly get a reliable #4? he has the skills, he's more well rounded than as i said most if not all the others so it could just be a matter of time, how much time is what we have to weigh up.

Maysun · #23 September 18, 2012, 01:40 AM

Shakib is doing decently at no.3. I'd say play Nasir at no.4. With his SR, he'd do well in the overs, 7-14 instead of batting down and playing in the overs 15-20. Followed by either Riyad/Mushy/Ziaur.

Sovik · #24 September 18, 2012, 02:08 AM

Where is the poll?

Rakibul @4? Anyone else we should try.

I think Mushi has done better @4 than anyone else

But are we not supposed to learn from the mistakes in practise matches so that in a real game we don't mess up!

Totally agree with you.

Musy "in his current form" should come after Nasir and even after Mahmudullah if needed. I know Nasir is slow and doesnt have shots but he can build an inning. Musy is by far one of our best finishers. Him and Zia at the end together can be explosive. I think this may also bring his confidence back.
