Shabash Rafiq.

25% of my thanks go to Owen Matau.

Navarene · #4 May 29, 2004, 04:55 PM

Thank you Rafique

**Tehsin** · #5 May 29, 2004, 04:56 PM

I already called it - Rafique is Bangladesh's answer to Lara.

By the way, this was his first century in any kind of competitive cricket, maybe it's his maiden century in any (parar, rastar included) cricket at all.

Watch out for the celebration video tomorrow. I have this historic moment recorded.

rafiq · #7 May 29, 2004, 04:58 PM

thank you all for the accolades

rafique played his finest innings for sure - looked more at ease than ashraful and both did exrtremely well to keep BD going after the mini collapse yesterday.

Only 5 batsmen in double figures but a fantastic team effort so far! I say come out tomorrow and smash around for a few balls, declare or get out.

Just two days back, Bangladeshi cricket fans, repeatedly let down by their batsmen, were a demoralized bunch. This is excellent cricket from both Rafique and Bashar. Both centuries were full of confidence and delightful strokeplay. If Rafique can now strike with the ball, he will forever claim a spot in the hearts of Bangladeshi cricket fans.

When Rafique and Bashar show up for work, Bangladesh has a chance.

I just love this guy Rafiq, he probably represents the true Bangladesh........ not much of textbook staff but lot of spirit ...... may have hit far too many balls in the air but the end result is he got the hundred. Spirit will win against textbook all the time. GO RAFIQ

CONGRATS to Rafique! Superbly executed century!

Looking forward to seeing some arm ball magic when WI bats.

TigerFan · #13 May 29, 2004, 06:43 PM

I say Rafiq and Tareq should score as much as possible- 450 even 500. Then We can put windies to bat

Hasib · #14 May 29, 2004, 07:05 PM

500? thats a little bit optimistic!!!

Ehsan · #15 May 29, 2004, 07:10 PM

Hats off to Rafiq!

Keep up the good work with the bowling too

Navarene · #16 May 29, 2004, 07:49 PM

And we shouldn't forget to thank Tareq Aziz, for he survived 34 balls and provided a solid support to let Rafique hit his ton.

rassel · #17 May 29, 2004, 08:32 PM

Damn! I can't belief my eye! This is awesome display by rafiq. I missed his century celebration due to some frickin work! Nevertheless, he is the man who could lead us to our maiden test victory! I know that because is simply damn good with his spin as well.
