Rony is much better batsman than those hacks

Mukhtar Ali the bowler is so bad.

Even other T20I specialist pacers we have - AA and Shafiul are slower than him.

Rana seemed decent, improved a lot from last year. Need proper guidance though.

What happened to Khaled Ahmed guy, is he already done for?

khaled is injured, he is in rehabilitation.

[BengaliPagol]

i think jaker ali needs to be in the bd t20 side. Have to groom him, you can tell he is a really good striker of the ball. Young kid as well, so might as well groom him in the national team.

[BookFinder]

It's the same krap again. Only foreign batsman knows how to play. All these Mithun Pithun cant do jack.

Having said that, still early days for him and at this point, a far better option then Fizz. Hopefully he develops the drive to improve his pace and swing because among all of these Taskins, Fizz, Rony, Shafiul, Rubel, Roy, Rabbi, Khaled.. none of these guys made any effort to increase their pace after they made it to the nats side. For me, if a seamer doesnt have that desire to get faster and more lethal, he wont go far unless he has some special talent in swinging the ball.

BD pacers bowl at their fastest in the U-19 days. Shahadat, Rubel, Taskin, all bowled their quickest pace in the teen years, and none of them got significantly faster thereafter. If you can consistently bowl 140, you can argue that you don't really need much more pace and Taskin, Rubel were in that category.

Khaled debuted around age 25. Very few bowlers will increase pace at that stage. Khaled is a 135 bowler and occaisionally will hit 140...thats good enough pace if he can get an accessory skill (swing, seam, bounce, accuracy, variations). Khaled I think should focus on being a line and length guy bowling at 135 and trying to extract as much bounce as he can with his 6'3" frame. Here I'm mostly talking red ball cricket.

Rahi is pretty much the only swing bowler in the country. He will bowl 125-128 and swing it, reverse swing it. Good enough for me when you consider our best fast bowlers to daye are Shahadat and never-had-a-five-fer Mashrafee.

Ebadat has the tools. He was just a touch slower than Shami/Ishant in India, and his top pace was 143.7 in the series. He should focus on attacking the stumps and when that doesn't work bowling tightly.

We will get a good idea of what the next batch of U-19 quicks have in a few weeks. Tanzim Hasan Sakib looks tall and has some pace...also a left arm quick. Shoriful is tall and looks a good prospect. Mrittunjoy has terrific economy rates so far. Taskin, Rubel, and possibly Fizz are pretty much done for unless they can pull an Ishant Sharma at age 28 and improve vastly.

Some sick catch by Roussouw.

[BD_TigerZ]

Overseas players are doing the bulk of the hitting while the likesof Mossadek scores a run a ball innings and ruins all the work at the other end. What a farce.

[One World]

Foreign batters dominating not pleasant. Sylhet will win but no Desi batsman taking the charge to shape a chase for Khulna is still symbol of persistent weakness of our batting.

[BookFinder]

Can someone tell me how 132k Andre Russell in BPL becomes 145k speed demon in IPL?

Damn then whats going on with our paces clocking 134 actually bowling 120s then. Andre eats banana probably our pacers started to eat banana desi banana or machine went to gingira and had some upgrades.

It clearly indicates that our batters have gap in skills, temperment and basic knowledge and also fails to develop and execute plan, they could be talented but cant continue to develop more and sustain the growth. These outside batters dont even play locally all the time and face good quality batters and know how to pace their innings. Beside Mushfiq and may be one or two no consistent performer who can be considered the next possible replacement we are looking for. There are some new comers but all looked almost same fades away quickly and unable to keep the growth and maturity consistently over time. Look whats happening to Shanto, Anamul, Soumya, Liton, Yasir etc. and all the emerging players who showed potential during U19 days.

Crowd turnout is so poor, I am worried about Sylhet leg, it may go mostly vacant

[Eshen]

Only an idiot like Bashar will take Shadman in a T20 team

Great observation on quicks Al Furqaan. Looking at the young prospects, grooming them as multi dimensional pacers and making sure we preserve them and not doing same mistakes we did with Mustafiz are key things to do and preserve these pipeline pacers.

Peoples who run this tournament have almost zero marketing knowledge.
It is simple to increase crowd turnout:
-During Dhaka leg: one match should be played in SBNS and another one in Fattulah
-Must increase the number of studium for instance Khulna.
-Teams should have home venue
Etc

[BD_TigerZ]

Should be renamed OPL. Overseas players league. They may as well since they've renamed each of the teams 50 times.

[MHRAM]

They need to market the tournament more but

- they keep changing teams
- brings poor quality cricketers like Jeevan Mendis and Emrit
-Doesnt expand the tournament to fatullah or Khulna

That too made to bat at 4

Lolololol

[One World]

Those all emanates from the decades of habitual (habibu-al) psyche of settling down and being satisfied for achieving little.
