Nah,BD plays more to loose more

But BDs pace attack is way more superior to Afghans

They have hired a proper fast bowling coach in Donald,this is what finance can do

It will help BD in the longer run,they too need to get rid of Shakib, Mushfiqur and other oldmen now

I'm hugely impressed by their pace bowling stocks

 

That Hasan guy has a great future...

 

Fizzy is their weak link in their pace bowling attack... they should get over big names and give chances to young talent who have big ceiling

Even then their pace attack is better than Afghans

By that logic Aussies too are rubbish,

You see the potential

They too tend to bank on big names rather than facing reality

They have improved their fast bowling attack,which is true

Eng,NZ are top dogs

They have always troubled us,good that we thrashed them handsomely now

That's due to indian conditions.

Afghans pace attack is no barometer.

 

Aussies had us at 2/3, bowled SL out after great start.

 

Bangladesh has done no such thing. They are mental midgets

BD as a unit is known to brainfade, can't blame their current pace attack

Australia has struggled to pick wickets in PP after our game

 

As you said they are mental midgets,they don't cash in against top sides

Ind has mostly used spin,siraj has struggled.

 

Sa are the best pace attack in this wc and even they got smashed vs sl.

 

And we will always have a few exception regardless of conditions.

Regarding the Afghan vs Ban debate, I feel one thing that stands out is that Afghan team is more entertaining to watch compared to Ban.  Even if Afghan loses all matches, I would probably put my money on watching Mujeeb and Rashid bowl or even watch Gurbaz bat rather than watching Ban who usually play their boring & dull brand of cricket.

All Indian pacers have done much better than BD pacers, including Siraj.

 

Getting smacked in one game is okay, what BD pacers are yet to do anything worthwhile, why are they being hyped?

Pace bowlers are not as effective in  white ball cricket in indian conditions ,so results will not always show on the scrorecard like with batsmen.

 

But compared to their standards they were looking better.Ban have not been known for pacers and also they always look defeatish unlike Afghans who look like they belong.

That's not true. Pacers are still more effective than spinners. Its pacers which have got us the wins.Top 4 of the 5 wicket takers this WC are pacers.

I haven't checked all these stats,one has to check when they got those wickets.

 

Spinners generally keep things tight in these conditions .Even in the last match afghanistan pacers took 3 wickets whereas their spinners took 4 ,but is that a fair reflection of how they bowled.

Against whom?SA are in tremendous form?

What is the point talking about this,the other day Mark Wood travelled,Starc travelled against SA

I made a point they have better fast bowlers than Afghans ,I didn't say they have best fast bowling among participating teams here

Afghan is worst pace attack. Being better then them is not much.

Those craving for Allan Donald to become bowling coach of India, what has he done to deserve the craving.

Rise is a function of collective efforts,don't care about other things when I was talking about the potential of their new fast bowling prospects under Donald,they have certainly improved

We were smashed by WI in  Wankhede of all sides,albeit in T20

That attack had Bumrah,Nehra,Hardik,Ashwin

My response was to a post comparing Afghan as and BD

Why are you making it BD fast bowlers vs Others in the world?
