Why is it not out off the fielder's helmet? If it bonked the fielder on the noggin and thenceforth leapt up in to the bucket like hands of a nearby fielder it'd be out - surely?

Cause if it hits the helmet it'll bounce more than if it hit the head, making a rebound catch easier. Or at least I think so.

What if the silly point fielder is wearing protective shin pads and it rebounds off them into the hands of the short field on the opposite side of the wicket?

Because the purpose of helmets is to protect the fielders; not aid them in catching the ball.

If it actually had sconned him he'd probably be unconscious on the deck.

Team is overloaded with batsmen, could have easily fit in Sunny. Nasir coming at 8 is a bit of waste imo

Gazi currently conceding over 70% of his career runs in sixes as a bowler. He'll be fun to watch throughout his career if he keeps that stat up.

Nah you don't need four specialist bowlers when you've got Shakib, Mahmudullah and Nasir IMO; team balance is right. Sunny should've been the first specialist bowler picked though.

Happened in a club cricket match I played in. Player was given out. No one seemed perturbed by the event in question at the time.

Sohag Gazi is bowling very well, anyone else think his action looks like a right handed Shakib? He can also bat so I think Bangladesh may have found a quality player
