Some good news for world cricket!

[CoverDrive]

bangaldesh finally emerging to be a competitive side in limited overs especially at home. It really expands the base of countries competitng at high level. Lets hope they maintain this form. another trend has been the steady progress of afghanistan. They are clearly the best associate side. They were unbeaten in the T20 qualifiers- this came despite losing their biggest star hamid hasan before the tournament. They deserve some odis against top sides - india should get them in to play. get them in asia cup and things could get interesting. Ireland also has been really good and deserve some matches against top sides
