Why send out Kamrul ahead of Taijul?

MHRAM · #1 October 23, 2016, 06:39 AM

I was shocked, Kamrul was no. 11 in the previous innings and now he was promoted to no. 9.

Taijul and Shaiful both are more accomplished batsman and have scored some vital runs here and there for us and management sent Kamrul up the order. I mean seriously, why? Why?

This blunder could cost us the match.

Broad was bowling well, I think they though out of the 3 tailenders kamrul is the most hopeless, I think they wanted kamrul the see off broad as broad was bowling his 7th over of the spell

Habib · #3 October 23, 2016, 06:42 AM

At first I was shocked as well. But now that I think about it, I think they sent the worst batsman on purpose. Maybe they thought whatever number of balls he played or scored off would be bonus. The ploy didn't work though. He is as bad as Taskin with the bat.

Because Kamrul is a nothing wicket. If you could steal a 10 run partnership at that situation. You take it and run.

You lose Taijul/Shafiul and the game is over

Mentally, I would be more comfortable in knowing that Shafiul will be the last batsman coming in to support Sabbir if it came to it than Kamrul.

^and it would have been much better if we had 3 wickets in the bag surely?

Team management read my post about Rabbi being the worthy successor of Abul

To save the wild card "Safiul" against England, not a bad move (at least they tried).

MHRAM · #10 October 23, 2016, 07:10 AM

If their is a need for a nightwatchmen for a tailender then it would be something utterly stupid.

Its not only about shielding, its about the number of wickets left. If we had 3 left today, we would be confident. Now its on a knife's edge.

Nightwatchman... Needed to take the sting out of broad a bit for the tail end

But if tajiul got out and then we might be all out... Hopefully our players have strong enough mentality to assess the situation

This. They were hoping Karul could pull out some flukey runs or a 6 or two like Shahid..

How do these things work? Does Taijul practice his batting against pacers like Broad in the nets this evening? Or is that overkill and too much to ask for anyway and probably not stipulated in his contract.

If I was Taijul, I would go to the indoor practice facility, and practice 4 overs with the bowling machine simulating swinging deliveries.

Tactical move, peharps.

Don't worry he has Shafiul and Kamrul bowling to him as we speak

Dilscoop · #17 October 23, 2016, 05:00 PM

Is it just me, or since Abul got his 100 at No.11 all of our tail started sucking at legendary level? Or, our tail started to suck since Riyad got promoted? It was him who had inspired the tails, wasn't it? Shafiul, Abul, Rubel, all scored runs with him. Now they don't even know how to hold a bat? Riyad magic!

How can you be a cricket and not swing the bat properly? I mean how do you start playing cricket? But lifting up a bat. I don't anyone who started out by bowling first.

A blunder which perhaps contributed in costing us the match

Yeah? Kamrul Rabbi would have won us the game with the bat after Taijul and Shafiul got out had he not been sent earlier, eh?

Rifat · #20 October 23, 2016, 11:54 PM

Abu Jayed Chowdhury would probably have been a better pick
