This Bangladesh side is similar. You mean a side of Flower Bros, Strang Bros, Whittal Bros is not better than Bang Bros? Man you are funny... Edited May 24, 2017 by Sean Bradley Link to comment

Dude did you read what I said properly? Yes in 90s Zim was a very competitive side and had some world class players but still they were the lowest ranked among all 9 test playing nations at that time. Bangladesh too has some world class players who would make most teams like Shakib,Tamim etc. but still they are weak in tests. Am I missing something or are you ? Link to comment

I think with Bangladesh playing more abroad we will only get better Link to comment

Am I missing something or are you ? but Zim beat us in home in one test did they not...i wonder. Even if they did you could say BD have not played us much..and India have grown stronger..but somehow zim of 90's appears stronger when you look at them now, they had so many players and A Flower never used to get out against us.

Nikhil_cric Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Zimbabwe also won a test series in Pakistan and beat India and SA in the 1999 World Cup. Bangladesh are rapidly improving these days but I'd still take Flower brothers/Campbell/Streak/Olonga/Goodwin/Johnson etc. for now. Link to comment
Yoda-esque Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Bd are very close to SL of the earky 90s,their nucleus is now set.I dont think any win from them should now be counted as an upset. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk Link to comment

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk They are getting better but not that good. The advantage which SL had was that they had a chucker as their bowling lynchpin. Unfortunately for B'desh they don't have such a luxury. Link to comment

What a shame. BD is getting better but their ego is bigger than their achievements. They are bit thuggish in nature. Link to comment

You guys did not condemn it so makes you an accomplice too. Yes the team is slightly thuggish. Overall you have a good team and our improving. Within few years you will be better than Pakistan.

Trust me its very difficult to bowl with action like Murali let alone control it. Murali's achievements are completely valid unlike Ajmal. Zero_Unit 1 Link to comment

It is unfair. This birth defect they talk about is biggest load of crap I ever heard. I asked my SL friend to show me one picture of Murali as a kid with this twisted arm or proof he had this problem at birth . They never did. He cheated. Link to comment

Your friend is a medical professional and tested murali's bowling action? If not, your point and argument is totally invalid. Murali is not handicapped, paraolympics is for HANDICAPED people. His arm is not capable of bending straight after a certain degree but that doesn't mean he is handicapped. What do you mean it's a biggest load of crap. What kind of logic is this mate?
