It's like he doesn't understand how great a runscoring opportunity this is for all Bangladeshi batsmen. Kayes, that is.

The truth about WIPA's restructuring

Interestign article that's shed some light. Person writing it is usually critical of WIPA.

Miller still MIA. Reifer slaughtering his confidence here.

roseboy64 · 12-07-2009, 10:09 AM

Oh heard an interview with Daren Powell and he says Vasbert Drakes, Chamderpaul and Nash are the pros he's played with. Also said if the team improved their professionalism the performances would improve and that the guys feel bad when they lose.

Also said domestic cricket is a shambles and proposed bringing in foreign players and some other things I've forgotten. He also said he's reviewed his bowling and will be working on it.

Mr Mxyzptlk · 12-07-2009, 11:12 AM

What was the point of that Drakes, Chanders, Nash bit?

roseboy64 · 12-07-2009, 11:18 AM

He seemed to be making the point that if the players could becoem as professional as those three the inconsistency would be lessened.

Mr Mxyzptlk · 12-07-2009, 11:31 AM

Well Chanderpaul is the only one of those three who is an outstanding cricketer, and he was that way since long before he became a pro. I see the point that he is trying to make, but paying people like professionals doesn't transform them into professionals. There needs to be a discipline there that justifies such a paycheque.

I suppose on the whole it's a Catch-22 though.

roseboy64 · 12-07-2009, 11:53 AM

Nash and Drakes played lots of pro cricket before playing for the West Indies though.

Congrats to Iqbal.

I have no idea where this match is going to be honest.. the BD's lead is 120 odds it is second session 4th day..if they stratch the lead to 300 by the end of today and declare... we might have an interesting match for tomarrow.. but with the pace they are going right now.. i highly doubt that..

brockley · 12-07-2009, 12:31 PM

Nah aaron bangladesh way too conservative,don't forget bangladesh has gone from near certain wins to losses and draws.
Expect bangladesh to bat at least to lunch,where it will be a draw.
This is not like the ashes,need compettive sides for that.
Bangladesh at least looked to have saved its test status tho,maybe next test.

AaronK · 12-07-2009, 12:42 PM

Dude.. i hope it is not a draw.. i hate matches that are draw..

brockley · 12-07-2009, 12:42 PM

run rate 2.67 suggests playing for draw won't hit 300 today.
