Good sold striking, rotated the strike, quite fast at running... Sometimes played in the air unintentionally but all is good. Great talent.

[Habib]

Had some nerves, but otherwise ok.

[shuziburo]

Khali runout-ta na hoile kela jite jetum...

[Nadim]

Thanks guys.

after reading cricinfo. it seems a easy 50 was on the card for Hom Such a stupid way to get out...he & Nasir is an intelligent guy and im sure both will learn their lesson and will show what they r capable of in reamaing two match....maybe he is bit nervous and having communication problem in the middle with his seniors(boyos e junior:p)

[Fazal]

Why some of our players look like "Deer in Headlights"?

[simon]

missed the beginning but looked impressive.
hope for the best.

Negative:

He needs to sort out his RBW. Even though he looks to rotate his run out was completely amateurish.

Must stop playing across the line of the ball. Couple of time tried to through the whole kitchen sink.

Positive:

Rotates well.
Plays straight.
Plays along the ground, well most of the shots.


Overall: Good apart from his one second of stupidity. But we need to watch more innings from him to make a better judgement.

Missed his batting. But sounds prospective enough!

[Murad]

Rbw will be sorted once he gets ettled with the boys.

cant believe Hom dropped that catch we expect much better for u Hom

[deshimon]

Hope he can carry on his performance next ODIs.

[simon]

if Hom had taken that catchof Taibu we could have won.
But anyway,I want both Hom & Nasir for the last 2.

[shuziburo]

Hom and Nasir has shown promise. The question is whether this is a flash in the pan. Remember that century by Ash against the mighty Australians?

[Ishtylish cricketer]

Ok, all this hype and interest about a guy who made 32? I know the expectation from fans has dipped in the recent past after a string of pathetic performances by the team, but does a knock of 32 by debutant elicit a thread opening or query about his potential? How much can one deduce from an inning of 32? I just saw the highlights...I can't get past his drop of Taibu. That's unpardonable! That was the game.

Since people are overlooking the grave mistake and talking about his batting,I will do the same. His strengths and weaknesses are the same as many of the contemporary Bangladeshi batsmen. He can play reasonably well off the front foot, has high bat speed and resorts to minimal footwork against the quicks. Oddly enough, his batting style reminded me of T. Dilshan. Needless to say he has much more to climb before reaching Dilshan's height.

Likes: 1) positive attitude and self belief; he really tried to win the game
2) aggressive intent in running between wicket (although that was his downfall)
3) plays offie very comfortably and rotated the strike well

Improvements: 1) need to learn to better communicate with batting partner (to avoid brainless run out)
2) learn to relax (seemed really nervous in batting and that drop was probably due to nerves as well)
3) needs to learn how to cut the ball and steer good balls to third man

Dislikes: 1) minimal footwork
2) poor balance (missed out on cut shots and leg stump half volley)

Unknowns: Can he attack faster bowlers? Does he have the patience and skill to play good swing bowling? Is he adept at hooking/pulling bouncers? Can he rotate strike when a leggie/left arm orthodox is bowling? Can he hit sixes (batting at #6 it's almost a requirement)?

Too early for judgement one way or another, but the hype has to stop. What anyone does in Bd domestic cricket is not a good measuring stick for forecasting player success at the international level. Let this guy maintain an average of 32 for five straight matches, I will open a thread.

[nycpro96]

He is good. He is very positive. He came in to the crease at a very critical point and looked completely unfazed. Composed cricketer he is. I expect lots from him.

[Jadukor]

Our batters all have the tendency to score some runs in one game and then score a zero in the following game. Lets see how he goes in the next two games

[godzilla]

His 1st internatioal innings was decent. He batted well and kept a SR of +80. We could use a player like him at number 3-4 and this will also give us a righty instead of 3-5 lefty back to back.

[beshideshi]

I can clearly see what the hype is about. He sees the ball as early as Mohammad Ashraful does, and has ample time to play his shots, never looked like the ball was rushing to him. Also has a very "Indian" style batting, very wristy.
His feet movement was not the best, however that can be due to his first game nerves. But if morning shows the day, I would say Bangladesh have discovered something special here.

[BANFAN]

Another brainless talent (Aparently). He isn't playing cricket for the first time, how can he take run looking at the ball and never bothered to look at the runner/partner. He was doing this repeatedly. That's not an acceptable deficiency as a new comer. These are basic cricketing sense and he lacks severely.

Hope he overcomes the deficiencies as many posters have pointed out. We need him to be successful. Till now despite all his deficiencies I remain to be positive about him. Best of luck Hom.

Agree 100%. He can see the ball early and hit the ball late, a great combo. It doesn't take him much to get set at the wicket. Absolutely a keeper. If this is how he bats being nervous ...
