Poor cricket
I believe Sewhag was absolutely right when he said the Bangladesh was an ordinary side. Look at the way Ashraful batted in the second Test. I would like to drill it into the minds of the BCB for the last time that "ASHRAFUL WILL NEVER CHANGE". I am not a cricket player, but even I have enough common sense to realize that Bangladesh were four early wickets down and survival was the key. How many times has he gotten himself out like this? It's no use swinging your bat around in anger and cursing. What he should have done was take off his helmet and given himself a good whack in the head! It is because of people like Ashraful that Sehwag stated that Bangladesh is an ordinary side. Ashraful does not care about his team and plays for his own performance. I also disagree with Jamie Siddons that there are no replacements for Ashraful. What about Aftab Ahmad, Alok Kapali or the other ICL players? I was also surprised to see the way Shakib played a wide delivery to get himself out. This is not expected from a top international player.
Hats off to Mahmudullah for his brilliance. Even the Indian players were congratulating him at the end of the innings. Keep it up! Mushfiqur Rahim is also doing well. Keep it up. For the remaining Bangladesh cricket team, I have one piece of advice for you..."SHAPE UP OR SHIP OUT".
