Match Thread| 4th ODI: Zimbabwe v Bangladesh at Bulawayo Aug 19, 2011 (09:30 local | 07:30 GMT | 03:30 EDT)

[silversurf]

Many people are saying many things, many analysis is going around in the question "Why we loose the series and matches to ZIM", those we saw the matches, I think doesn't need much more analysis to say that "the batsman are throwing their wkt's away" thats the main problem about loosing this matches and series. Is it to blame Sakib, Lawson or BCB or anybody eles ??? What you say guys ?

There is a plane strike in zimbo. so i guess they wont be able to come home even if they wish unless the strike is over. you see even the zim publics are concerned about their getting home and getting bash. or i suppose they want to keep our players and play with them whenever they are in a festive mood and want means of enjoyment (no offence) :p

Shuvo should be dropped until he learns the finer art of playing good cricket, if he is no good at fielding, catching, bowling and batting, why is he in the team?

[hoodlum]

Nafees should play in place of Imrul

zee, ur a genious! u have figured out why we lost the 3 matches. it's because of justin! baby baby na theke nantu ghotok thakle ajke amra jite jaitam

[ZimSlog]

1. Kayes 2. Tamim 3. Junaid 4. Mushfiq 5. Nasir 6. Hom 7. Shakib 8. Razzak(the track is pretty slow) 9. Shafiul 10. Rubel 11. Nazmul... this is my BD squad for tomorrow. I hope Riyad losses his spot and Lalla is given a second(or twentieth) chance. 300 is gettable at Queens so it might be wise to drop one of the 3 pacemen for a containing spinner maybe Shuvo. But the question is, who will get the chop?

My XI

1. Tamim
2. Imrul
3. Zunaed
4. Mushy
5. Nafees
6. Shubhagoto
7. Riyad
8. Shakib
9. Nasir
10.Rubel
11. Nazmul

Batting order may be changed depending on situation.

Out: Shafiul
In : Nafees

The recent ODI series and test match loss to Zim has left me and millions of BD cricket fans heart brocken. Dare I say that it has put me and a lot of others into depression. Therefore, causing psychological and sociological problems in the society; that too in this holy month of Ramadan. Since, cricketers are the prime-accused; I propose we exclude cricketers when we play cricket. What say?

[habfreak]

We should experiment with the series being over. no difference if we lose to Zim 3-2 or 5-0. So I'd try to build up Ashraful's confidenceone last time before dumping him for good. Also, Nazmul and Shubho should given chances to prove themselves in a non pressure situation. I also think Riyad and Mushi should bat up the order and prove they can play longer innings. I would drop Tamim and let him watch for a bit to recompose himself. And I also think Shakib needs a break. But if he absolutely has to play...he should bat at #9 to give others a chance. so my playing XI is as follows:

Zunaid SN Mushi>>>Ash Riyad Nasir Hom>>>Shubho Shakib/Razzak>>>Nazmul Rubel

Next series I'd bring back Shahadat, Rasel and Naeem instead of Nazmul, Shafiul and Shubho. And possibly Rakibul instead of Imrul.

[Rifat H]

My XI,

Tamim
Nafees
Junaed
Hom
Sakib
Mushfiq
Riad
Nasir
Razzak
Rubel
Nazmul

I will prefer razzak over safiul in Bulawayo wicket as it is flat and slow , hardly anything for pacer.Imrul had enough chance ,so he should be dropped.I want to see nafees opening.

[Andy-Flower]

If Queen sports club lives up to its reputation then we might witness a 600run match 2moro. I wish we had an in-form Charles Coventry. A whitewash will boost the guys confidence going into the Pakistan series. Good luck to the Zombies!

[Fazal]

Bangladesh's combination finally clicked and although it was harsh, their decision to drop Mohammad Ashraful and Shahriar Nafees almost paid off.

It may be tempting to bring one, or even both, back but in the interests of allowing an XI that showed promise a chance to prove its worth, they could field the same line-up.

Shuvagoto Hom was excellent on debut, but Nasir Hossain bowled a hodge-podge of medium pacers and off-spinners and was targeted.

Will it be the same team or Ash and/or SN will be in? If so then who will be out?

Is hodge-podge nasir is still in or out?

As Nasir is given chance, he should be continued for next 10 matches at least. Same goes true for Hom also.

yup...But I would replace Imrul with Junaed/SN...Imrul had enough opportunities. This guy clearly needs a break for a while...

Indeed. And they both look decent cricketers.

[Shafir]

I would bring Nafees and Ashraful back and go with a lot of batters on tomorrows track, and bring Razzak's spin:
Tamim
Kayes
Nafees
Mushfiq
Ashraful
Sakib
Hom
Nasir
Razzak
Shafiul
Rubel

[Murad]

Riad and Imrul should be dropped for this game. Both of them flopped in all games.

Nafees can replace Imrul as opener.


Razzak will be back for this game as ball will be spinning a lot in this wicket.
