What is the problem with Bangladesh?

[Jayaram_IND]

How good are bangladesh players against short stuff or the swinging ball?If the improve these 2 aspects they will become a good side.Also i had asked a question about upcoming fast bowlers .Can someone who follows Bangladesh cricket closely give me so insights on someone to watch out for as a future star?

Thanks for the info mate.Any idea how tall he is ?I thought shahadat hossain had a good height and build to be a fast bowler and wasnt mashrafee mortaza a fast bowler in his early days?Regarding pitches i think the entire subcontinent doesnt support fast bowlers so their stats wont be impressive.But still they are a requirement.Hope the bangladesh selectors give more chances to quick bowlers .im tired of your left arm spinners.With spinning tracks they are bound to get more wickets so i feel the selectors musnt just look at averages amd it good to know that there are programmes for fast bowlers.ALL THE BEST BD.

I dont know why you are too critical.Give them more time and exposure.You have a world class alrounder an attacking opener and a quality spinner.Only thing missing is an attacking fast bowler and maybe another good middle order bat.How good is mahmudullah as a batsman?he performed well against india.

I don't know where I am over critical against BD.And which Opener and spinner you are talking about? Even if I accept your argument then a team need 8-9 quality players not 3

I meant Tamim and abdur razzak .What i wanted to say is the team is building up nicely and i already mentioned what bd needs.Thats why i ask bangladesh supporters to pls be patient.

Bangladesh probably suffer because their domestic set up is not great. When that improves, they will improve. Zimbabwe, despite being in the wilderness for a long time already had a decent domestic set up while good Irish players get to play high quality 1st class matches for English counties

Every time you watch ashraful bat he looks so pleasing to the eye yet he never delivers.Maybe consistency is their biggest worry

[Sachinism]

The problem is that if Bangladesh pulls back even for a draw from here' date= the fans and the players will be satisfied. They have been happy with small achievements among big disasters, so they will never get past the small achievements among big disasters.

Isn't that what India used to be like? And at times still are..

Ya but is still think we won games once in a while and thats why we are No 1.

And we used to do that against oppositions stronger than Zimbabwe and we used to have our fair share of wins.

Despite not having a great side in 90s we were still pretty invincible at home.I guess Bangladesh can start by being a good home team and making visiting teams toil hard for their wins.

...and the downs continue

Hopeless case :headshake:

[panther]

more investemant needed

[Precambrian]

The likes of Tamim acting like prima donnas isn't going to help.

[BeautifulGame]

They play tests like ODIs and ODIs like tests.Their batsmen need brain transplantation.

[Karan114]

They really can't afford their few genuine talents like Tamim Iqbal to start taking things easy. Dire state of affairs
