The rise of Bangladesh...


Recommended Posts

Some of their core players have experience of 8+ years. They made debut before Virat Kohli. So high time they deliver something even if it is against an average national side.

Last year almost the same Bangladesh team lost to HK and Afghanistan at home (both at multi-lateral tournaments). They actually had 10+ matches lost at home at one stage, before the Zimbabwe series. But the turn-around was spectacular. The bad about this team is that they don't really have any mystery/leg spinners. Those help against lower ranked teams. The good thing is confidence. A lot of times, confidence alone can move you forward despite other issues.

BD is starting to look like SL of early/mid 90s...they seems to have sense of purpose more than ever before.
Excellent observation. I actually think they are among the top 6 times in SC conditions. If only they get a bit mentally stronger they can run deep in a major ICC tourney in Asia in the coming future.

I think it's more to do with a totally rubbish Pakistan side. But credit where it's due, they played well. Though I think test matches should be a walk in the park for Pakistan with the likes of Misbah and Younis.

definitely an improving side. this shows that if there is public support and passion for the sport over time you can improve. they are a good ODI side and will regularly challenge top teams. next step would be winning in tests

Bongs have definitely improved and are consistent too. In world cup they beat England in a crucial game. Lost games against established decent odi sides only. Buts thats about it. Zimbos or Irish would have given a better fight than crappy Pakistani side

Well played Pakistan. Back to the drawing board for us.
Nothing to feel disheartened about. Part of the learning curve or as Msd calls it, process.
