Shakib is dragging a bunch of losers who doesn't have either talent or motivation. He is like the Daniel Vettori version of Bangladesh, always providing support with the ball and bat because the rest fails to do it. But yet, NZ had some competent players throughout the times like Bond, McCullum and others. We don't even have those occasional class players. And that's why we always so badly.

Tamim is like McCullum, very hard hitting and talented, but is relatively inconsistent.
He is only a shadow of McCullum. He (McCullum) had many many blistering and game changing knocks in all forms of the game. On the other hand, Tamim might have 4-5 such innings at best. Plus he keeps as well (one of the best keeper in recent times). So I think McCullum is much better overall player.

That's why I said like. McCullum is more mature and obviously plays better bowling more often that Tamim does.

A bit of attitude.. I think he's deserving of a bit of that
At the end of the day, he proved his worth it when he came to Worcestershire and when he played with KKR. He showed that he's talented and that he's an excellent cricket player. Now what is the difference between these two teams and our beloved Bangladesh cricket team?
The Bangladesh cricket team are a bunch of idiots! They have no consistency, no sense of teamwork and are becoming more and more pathetic by the day. So he makes a couple of mistakes. Big deal..
lol i remember last year during this time we were all saying "let shakib go and play for worcs..we dont need him to beat zim and county cricket will do him a lot good..if we cant beat zim without shakib we should stop playing cricket"...lmao

I remember a few people saying that. We really don't have the luxury to take Shakib out and resting him for any tours. We still just rely on Shakib to win us matches. We're not India, Australia, or England where we can field a 2nd team and beat teams. The depth is just not there. It'll take a long time before we have the luxury of resting players for tours.
Man of the Match award...plus the nomination for man of the series....er cheye beshi ar ki chai shobar??? Aaj dekha jabe Shakib er naam e kotto kotto gun-gaan....cheleta finger injury niyeo ja khello...dekhar moto....Insha Allah October er West Indies series ar December er Pakistan saeries eo ebhabei performance dibe....
Does aybody think that he can become the "Imran Khan" for Bangladesh in future? He has a lot of potentials......

to be what imran was for pak u need not only cricket potential but also strong charecter..shakib showed a lot of that in his early captaincy days..but sadly fame got to his head..but stll he'll improve with time..he looks like the only guy in BD team who have the potential to mature with time..
True that Night Wolf....I completely agree.....see he is only 24 at the moment....it will take time for him to settle down and if he does.....we can have a "Tiger" like what was Imran to Pakistan...."Lion"

He cant demand an Ash, Nafees, Razzaq because they are seniors and have the backing of the either the selectors or the media. He cant drop the from the team only because he wants it because then he will blamed of playing dirty politics which he is already blamed for.
At the same time we both know how youngsters in our country behave. If Shakib starts to become a bit stubborn with the younger ones they will start a revolt. They will say exactly what we are saying here in this forum. "big head, fame has got to him...bla...bla".
And at the tip of the iceberg we have the media. It is Shakib who gave the media something to talk and be "experts" about by single handedly bangla washing NZ and now the media has become bigger experts and the ones to whom Shakib is accountable. Some sections of the media in all probability have grudges against this bloke to be so brutal against him. Why isn't an Ash, Tamim, Razzaq, Nafees as accountable as Shakib. May be because he doesn't like interacting with the media a lot. Perhaps he refused a few interviews and now the media is going after him.
I myself am an introverted person and have problem expressing myself and often is misunderstood. Shakib himself has said that he is an introverted person and thus there is a great chance that we trust the media way too much at the cost of misunderstanding our only real performer.
This is exactly where this Shakib's attitude is coming from. As I said in my previous post at this moment in time it is a curse being shakib al hasan
Excellent observation ! I am kinda fed up the stupid attitude shown by the media towards Shakib. He is a diffrenet kinda breed in the team. Khaled Mahmood Sujan seem to be always against Shakib whenever he opens his mouth.
He is leading the team from the front, that's what we expect him to do.
