Let's see what Sir Ash does
Don't blame him. He got unfortunate. Wahab is a Tall Guy . Yet we all were expecting a 50 from him. But despite that. He got his team off to a good start. Which was needed.
Today Tamims innings was good but he need to learn to combine caution and aggression to make the innings long.
I think Tamim has some problem with placing the ball.
I dont think it really matters what happened in IPL.
He didnt get proper treatment and jodhus modhus played above him. But I really care about his performance for BD. If he plays like this in T20 WC he wont have shortage of T20 contracts

id beg to disagree. tamim was getting enough bat on ball. Its just that the ball he hit was slow and he really didnt get enough power to send it over riaz. But remember, he was the aggressor and with your team in such condition it makes no sense to get some more runs
18 + 8 = 26 ( From Boundries & six) - From 5 deliveries.
Total runs scored = 36 ( Assume he took 10 singles: 26+10)
Percentage of Dot Balls: (37.5%)
I am still concerned with his rotation of strike, He should look to have a margin of 20 to 30 percentage of dot balls, if less great. anything over 30% is a concern. but well played today. good knock.
i don't think tamim's rotation of strike problem is because of lack of skill, i think it's because he's thinking boundary every ball without having too much of the thought of single if the ball isn't a boundary ball. all good batsmen look to score a boundary every ball, the best ones are the ones that are also ready to take the single or the 2s if necessary. i think it's a mindset thing with tamim.
I hope that he scores the same type of runs against NZ and Pakistan... Come to think of it, how cool is it that 4 of our players are getting the practice on the very same conditions versus the rest of the 2 teams aren't!! Especially, Tamim, Mushfique, Mahmudullah would be key for our chances during the T20WC..

NZ not but core of the Pak team is playing SLPL..the got more practice then us
I really can't remember Tamim playing such power shots on off side with such ease, be it against right handed off spinner or fast bowler. During commentary Deano mentioned that Tamim had told him about his problem playing right handed off spinner (prolly Ajmal, Shoaib Malik) but watching him playing off side lofted shots and clearing boundaries every single time he does it, tells other story

This stat is skewed big time and the reason is he bats during the batting powerplay when its easier to blast a ball for four than take singles. I have watched the match and he did take singles whenever he could manage one. Some of them were risky ones that required him to run hard plus also requiring him to have good understanding of his partner then, Chandimal.
I don't have a problem him playing so many dot balls and still managing a 150 SR in the first 6 overs. But after that it becomes an issue because then the boundaries are hard to get and pressure gets on the team if you dont rotate the strike.

Good post and agreed.
To me Tamim has some problem with placement so his percentage of dot ball is so high. If he can improve here he will be a master class.
Watch out for Tamim Iqbal blazed a ravishing 93 not out in Wayamba United's opener, but had since played second fiddle to the tournament's top scorer, Kamran Akmal. With Akmal gone and the less aggressive Dinesh Chandimal likely to be pushed up the order again, the job of providing the rapid starts Wayamba United have grown accustomed to in the powerplays will fall to Tamim.
