No Robiul in ODI and T20 Please

[Kana-Baba]

This brave heart fought like a real tiger and devoted 200% of his ability. He bowled more 100 overs. He is tired now and became even more vulnerable to injury. We need to give him due rest for long term career. I think we should request team management not to be short sighted and exclude him from upcoming ODI and T20.

[shuziburo]

There are a few days before the 1st ODI. Thus, I don't have a problem playing him because Mushfiq cannot abuse him in limited overs even if he wants. However, someone in team management needs to tell Mushfiq not to overbowl Robiul ever in a future test.

[KaaL-PurusH]

he cant buy enough bread and butter if he doesnt play ODI since its mostly playing format for BD. He is also being reprieved from not getting enough money from prize money ;p

[Rubu]

ODI is only 10 overs a day, even that is broken into 2 to 3 spells. I don't think it will be a problem. He got 3 days to rest before that too.

Unless, he asks for it, I don't think this should be a considerations. Besides, he might be just eager to show his worth in ODI and could actually be a disappointment for him if he can't play.

[al Furqaan]

It won't be a disappointment if management tells him its for his and the team's benefit. He said in the interview he could bowl another 100 overs if it was for the team's sake. Well he can sit his a** down for a week for the team's sake too.

We won't need a Robiul to beat ZIM 3-0 in the ODIs. Mark my words!

[nadim 98]

He is already in as Rubel is out with chicken pox.

Whether we need him or not is a different question, the question is what's good for him, exposure and match practice or rest.

I guess, only he can decide if he needs rest. If he feels he does not need the rest, he should definitely play. The experience will come handy.

[shuziburo]

If Robiul keeps up his accuracy, he will be difficult to hit. If the batsmen take chances, he will get wicket. Same with Zia.

[Jadukor]

Rest him for the 1st ODI if not the whole series is what i would do. The guy bowled 100 overs! that has to be a record for a fast bowler in consecutive tests. The team management, with all the injury to fast bowlers surrounding this team, should treat him with more care. He is not a workhorse, He is our strike bowler... workhorse could be Sajidul who runs in and keep things tight. Steyn is not SA's workhorse and neither should Robiul be ours

[BD_TigerZ]

Agee but Rubel pox nia out. And rob was replacement. Zia will be 2nd pacer most likely due to his 4 wiks.

He should NOT play the ODIs. At least not all of them. Doesn't matter how long the break is. Look how likes of England treat their fast bowlers.

[ReZ_1]

Do we have enough option for the odis. robiul, sajidul, shafiul and zia,
in bullwawo i think they will pick 2 pacers considering the pitch
i don't think we should experiment with half fit shafiul at first. and sajidul has not been that impressive with wicket taking deliveris though he showed control and zia leaking runs but took crucial wickets. but both are military pace bowler. so we should take any one of them considering the situation.
So the left over is robiul, we got to take him for this series at least

[mali007]

We play only one or two test series in a year , so he will get enough rest before the next test . ODI is only 10 overs and as he is in form , BD needs him . Also Zimb. batsmen have "Robiul Phobia" now !!

[ReZ_1]

^^ rightly said, we don't play enough test in a year like eng to need to take the rest, also eng have high flexibility in choosing players. their second string team is also competitive. so they can afford that flexibility. its not our time yet. The one who is performing should be given chance with caution

[Fazal]

He should play both ODI and T20.... these are his bread and butter. We should not penalize him for his effort in TEST.

He can take rest in 3rd ODI only if we need 1st two.

Rahim need to use him more carefully, that's all. No long spell. Break it donw to three spells for ODI.

Plus the whole team should altenative do "Malish" on Robiul for next few days.

[M.H.Rubel]

I know without him still we will win the ODI series 3-0. still I want him to demolish The Zimbos.
Ora amaderke vat a marbe,
panite marbe,
Amra oderke ran a marbo,
Wiket a marbo,
Lojjay dobabo . .insallah.
Amader ja kisu ase sob niye jhapiye porbo.

[Rabz]

He is at his peak. This is his time.
Playing him will also have a psychological impact on the Zimbos.

We are not playing anything for the next 5 months.
Enough time to recuperate, if God forbid, any.

Robiul should play.

[simon]

Rabz bhai jehetu permission diyechey, kheluk cheleta

[AsifTheManRahman]

Let him play. It's only 10 overs a day, that too split across spells. Sajidul and Zia should also be in the XI (Zia purely as a bowler who might just be able to hit a few). Mushfiq will be forced to use these two - especially Sajidul - more because of the 10-over cap.

Exactly. And not only the impact he has over Zim batters but the impact it has on his future.

The guy is most likely in the form of his life. If he cannot take advantage of this and reap reward and settle himself as a regular with moral boosting performances in all formats it may work against him and his future.

I totally concur with this sentiment

[Rifat]

3 days is enough time to recover anyways....

[BengaliPagol]

Rest him for the 1st game. It's Bullawayo so we should probably go in two specialist spinners anyway (Razzak, Sohag). 100 overs is no joke and i think even 3 day isn't enough to recover. 5 days recover is more ideal as he can shrug of those niggling injuries that he might have from bowling 100 overs !

He did look flat bowling in the last innings of the match.

[shuziburo]

I think we should send Rabiul as Robiul's replacement for the 1st ODI.
