Can BD win their first Test series?


Recommended Posts

Yes Against India this June. And more exciting thing is that if BD can(surely) defeat India in this single test they will complete their Whitewash against them. Another exciting FACT.. When BD whitewashed NZ in 2010 then NZ were ranked 7/8. In 2013 when NZ got banglawashed they were ranked 7. In 2009 when WES(although a weak team) got banglawashed then they were ranked 7. In 2015 Pakistans ranking was 7 before playing against BD. And rest is history. Although test is different format. But still as India is playing as 7 ranked team.. there will be some psycological advantage for BD for sure.. Although its not a big issue just may be a coincidence...::winky:

In general we refer to any tours outside home as overseas tour (though technically its not right). Like for example, if someone says Indian batsmen XYZ averages 45 overseas then we automatically assume its outside home and not necessarily outside Asia (or outside Asia plus SL). With that being said, I don't agree with OP. We played 4 tough overseas tours on a trot and got to decent positions in all series (SA, NZ and fought well in Aus) except for England series where we were a joke. Calling us minnows overseas is not fair. That is the state of world cricket now. Every team outside home is very poor these days barring SA. Dhoni's captaincy and selections and pacer workload management in many of those series were infuriating. Let's see what the future holds for us. I think our team has the potential to mature into a good Test side.

At best they can hope for a draw if they roll out a highway. Too over rated in tests. Decent ODI side still but unproven in tests.
