It's just good manners. Nothing to do with being an US citizen.

I agree with this: I have noticed how Bangladeshi Batsmen these days are more:

1.sensible(pagla 6 every ball type attitude gone

)

2. taking lots of singles, rotating strikes something WE have been reiterating over and over and over again, as i thank the Almighty it finally sunk in their heads.

anyways, congrats to Kalpurush bhai and wiseshah: kalpurush bhai's match thread success ratio gone above 20 percent now...

we either get out due to bad luck or mistimed shots or finding fielder...which is an EXCELLENT improvement from Ashrapull...

but he mgiht end up offending some because ppl are so sensitive these days. And the term "black" isn't derogatory either. It's a race... Black is a race.. its like calling someone white would be racist or brown racist...

Well, "negro" is Spanish for black, but black people would get offended if it's used by non-black people.

It's weird these days... even calling someone a "jew" is considered offensive. *shrug*

Are you saying that an Oxford-educated man can speak better than a Brooklyn-born and raised rikshawala!!!

This kind of performance will only bring win against only this type of WI teams.

Zobair · #**3260** July 31, 2009, 04:31 PM

Congrats to our boys...wasn't the best all-round game (too many wides...injudicious shots) but I guess with the series in the bag may be the boys took it a little easy...if we had lost the match I would have blamed Mushfique's wrongful dismissal but luckily for us Riyad stepped up.

auntu · #**3261** July 31, 2009, 04:31 PM

Well congrats Bangladesh cricket team to do the paint job.
Though Moyna's batting was a bit concern for the future...yet again that semi pull shot...

Rifat · #**3262** July 31, 2009, 04:31 PM

Bangaldesh: Running between wickets has been Brillliant be it agaisnt this semi depleted West Indian side or a disciplined world class lankan, Indian or Australlian side.

after every loss in the past: we always look for the "positives": well, Lo! Behold! look at the fruits of those positives now!!! something we used to always "cherish for the future..." which is now!

Who knew Lower Order allrounder valuable Batsmen would be of so much help...

zainab · #**3266** July 31, 2009, 04:36 PM

Middle and lower order are finally ticking. They are rotating strikes better, taking more 1s and 2s and running betwen wickets is good. Great improvement.

at the end of the day: a win looks far better than a loss.

other points: Bangladesh team ALWAYS trys hard, we come short due to excellence in opposition: this is international cricket, not a circus, to quote Nasimul Hossain Bappi

through trial and error we have come a long way...Alhamdulillahi Rabbil A'lamin

and if you really look a this WIndies team, given the circumstances, they have done fairly decent. they gave us a good scare in all of our wins..

you know these are just a bunch of players who weren't ready for this type of challenge: suddenly you call them up to consecutively play international cricket: it is a tough ask! yes: inexperience and lack of self belief inthemselves and mistakes in their own making didn't add value to their cause but you can never take credit away from Bangladesh as we have done the job well enough in style

I would give our tour so far: overall: without much thought: 9.4/10 or if this was an exam: 94/100...

surely, there are other things we need to work upon as a team: as lack of Quality pacemen like Mashrafee was missed and Rubel/Rasel's lack of wicket taking abilities remain a worry...

even without Mortaza, we did a fairly decent job
