Bangladesh will beat the world records made by England and South Africa to be defeated 8 tests consecutively if Bangladesh lose to South Africa in the coming 2 test matches (that is, if there is no draw ).

- which I am hoping for [Rain _ Rain - Save us]

England was playing test when there was no one else around, well, maybe the Aussies and the Kiwis.
South Africa was plying and then they got banned but they had a First class structure in place and play continued.
Bangladesh has a three year old first class championship that is run half heartedly by BCB and the divisional sides.
Breaking that record is nothing for us. No wonder I don't feel really down when we make this new records. It'd be great if we can win from time to time but my goal is set for the 2007 World cup top SIX and the 2011 World Cup Semis/Trophy.
Do we know where the venue is going to be ? If it's around England/Australia and New Zealand I'd make it a vacation tour for meself and mine.

The next WC is in the WI - not toO far from Dallas, hey, and quite a good place to vacate to also.

Our players didn't do too bad in West indies. They held up good against some of their top teams and defeat second rank teams.

2007 in West indies. Woooooooooooohoooooooooooo. Plane tickets don't cost too much and the hotel fares are reasonable. All you gotta say is 'Yo MAAAN' and you're in.
