Its only shakib here, shakib there. How many of our players get chances in bbl, flt20 and ipl?

Hmm, our future is promising, but its important that our players are well recognized by the cricket world. That way we can have more series, more contract for our players, etc. But we ourselves can only blame ourselves for that.

2011 WC was a chance for us to show who really are. the stage was set, we were playing in our home turf yet we failed miserable in 2 matches which completely overshadowed are wins against the other teams. We failed to beat either NZ and Pakistan in 2012 t20 wc, in 2010 we had good oppurtunities to win against Aus or Pak yet we failed, in 2009 t20 wc we were in the same group as ireland but we lost to them. Success in ICC tournaments is much more valuable than a successful Asia Cup, or a whitewash of NZ 4-0, because people will remember these tournaments.

[shakibrulz]

Nasir would've been a steal. Full 4 overs plus explosive batting. Or even Mushfiq.

[BengaliPagol]

Kinda dissapointed that Shakib didnt come here.... couldve fed him bhat. Oh well the opportunity is lost.

Our last tour of Aus was in 2008 I think and Shakib, Tamim, Mushy were just starting out then (played 3 ODIs). So we don't know how they would perform now. We don't have any tour planned for AUS in next 5-7 years. That means an entire generation of our best bunch (Shak/TI/Mushy) might not play in AUS again (beside the 2015 WC).

It's just sad to see no name cricketers like Lakmal, Pradeep, Karunaratne, Thirimanne play in SCG/MCG and our boys missing out.

You guys do realize that there is a sizable (86.4K) immigrant Sri Lanka community in Australia ... http://www.espncricinfo.com/magazine...ry/598345.html
Perhaps their picking up cheaper Sri Lankan 20/20 talent may be connected to that?

I may be wrong on this but didnt Aminul Islam Bulbul live in Sydney before and now he currently resides in Malaysia?

Is there a particular grade he coached in Sydney Uni?

Does he still live in Sydney?

He was living in sydney, because of his wife .. now he moved to china i think or malaysia... not sure about that.

[zsayeed]

Loktato besh impressive: "it was only fitting for Aminul Islam to grind out 145 runs in Bangladesh's inaugural Test against India in 2000, the second-highest in a nation's debut after Charles Bannerman's 165 for Australia in the first official Test match. After batting an unthinkable eight hours and 55 minutes - especially for someone with very little first-class experience - Aminul was the last man out in what became his greatest achievement in a 15-year international career. "

^ Really zsayeed bro, you would not be as much astonished if you saw him bat. His shot selections were quite classy for a diminutive physic.

[deshimon]

He was the coach of China but where does he live recently? China or any other place?

Doubt it tbh. Even if that's the case, many teams could've benefited from players like Nasir and Mushy IMO. They have proven their abilities in Int. cricket.

There was more in that report: "and scored another half-century against Sri Lanka, an innings during which he guided the boyish Mohammad Ashraful to his debut century. Thus, Aminul was in the middle for Bangladesh's first two debut tons."

Thanks Isam for a wonderful write up.

[One World]

^I still remember his partnership with Akram in ICC Cup Final against Kenya. The way he toyed with Odyo's and Tikolo's was a delight to watch.

[Tiger Manc]

Shakib becomes the 1st Bangladeshi bowler to take 100 T20 wickets.

[Navo]

Slightly surprised that this thread wasn't bumped a bit earlier given his return to the field after 2 months! (Plus his decent performance thus far!)

[kalpurush]

সাকিবের বৌ-ভাগ্য ভাল!

Shakib looks confident and even more motivated than before. Look at him - how cheerful he is! MashAllah.

[Spiderman]

My strong advise to Shakib is to not play that scoop shot anymore its too risky. Hopefully Bangladesh Cricket will get enough games so that Shakib will regain back his number 1 position.

jantam ei khota ta shuntey hobey :p

Ontopic: Sakib though needs to be a little less aggressive, or probably he was sent to play a quick fire inn as they had many more batsmen to come, but I was very happy to see him batting up
