Sky Sports Sixes League

This is interesting. Mohammed Rafique is in joint 10th in the Sky Sports sixes league. However, he has the second best strike rate of hitting sixes after Shahid Afridi.

It is really a great news for Rafique's fans as well as all BD/Tiger fans. First important thing is, one of our BD player is there in the list of top 10 in one category on the world list. The second good thing is although he is at number 10 but he played the second least (after Herchelle Gibbs) number of matches to hit 17 sixes; he took second least (after Afridi) number of balls to hit each of his sixes.

Wait till he starts playing the 20-20.

Congrates Rafique!!

Go Rafique go! Nice to see a Bangladeshi hard-hitter amongst the world's best!

I thought Ashraful or Masri would be in this list also..

Great news!Rafique is always a model..For so long he has performed consitently for the country and showed great commitment.I believe he still has loads of things to achieve.Hats off to him!

When Rafique opened the innings for us in the tri-series tournament in India (Ind, BD and Ken) few years back and got some success, I was hoping that team management would try him more as a pinch-hitting opener in the shorter version. Even when the regular openers were failing, nobody talk about moving him up to #1 position. My wish of turning Rafique into Jaysuria remains unfulfilled.
