*Official* Bangladesh in the West Indies 2018

I hope wi aren't overly concerned about a bowler's pace. Wish we could unearth a more Mcgrathesque bowler. Accurate, fit, disciplined (no balls) and relentless.

You're talking about Jason Holder.

He is the closest thing

Keemo Paul is of that ilk. 80 to 85mph, swing and seam and bowls a good length. I want to see him given some chances.

If we can have Gabriel as the enforcer, roach as a class new ball bowler followed by swing and seam from Holder and Paul and we'll be laughing.

Not convinced by Bishoo as a spinner and would love to see Cornwall instead but he hasn't had much of an opportunity recently so it would be unfair.

 

[Prince EWS]

Yeah Paul's worth a go, particularly given he can bat a bit. Given Holder would make the team on bowling alone at this point we're essentially talking about the fourth seamer/fifth bowler here, so I think it's okay to factor batting in a little.

I don't recognise you with your new avatar. Change back.

 

[Prince EWS]

You'll get used to it.

 

[Mr Miyagi]

You'll get used to it.

But it i looks very emotional.

I'll try to caption it:

"Slippy just started a new thread - and they're not talking about food"

You can't get used to it if it's emotional?

 

[Mr Miyagi]

It just looks sad. Look at my avatar, a fine specimen of moustache goodness raised arm in celebrating. Look at yours, some guy telling some chick that her husband is dead and trying cop a feel of her bra line while she is distraught.

It's a very un-pews like avatar. Change it back, I don't like it. I got one which fits me perfectly.

@*****. I always love your enthusiasm about Bangladesh but if you are saying that Shakib can't be bothered, which he clearly isn't when he missed the SA tour, then he shouldn't be playing this format.

Looks like he does not want to continue in this format but doing it unwillingly. He knows the **** he'll receive from here if he decides to retire from tests and probably not ready to handle that yet. This is the vibe I'm getting. He's the worst captain and uninspiring to the young guys in the team. BCB at fault too for not being able to distinguish between 'Shakib the player' and 'Shakib the captain'. I dont know why he was appointed as captain again when all the evidence previously pointed a disaster.

Chandika when he was coach shielded BCB for a long time and BCB president got away as he was in really good terms with him. Now everything falling apart and I'm glad people started to question the legality of current BCB regime. Without knowing inch perfect details, I'm pretty sure the current board is not in power legally riddled with corruption esp all the directors need to be questioned about their roles. But they are trying to sweep this by highlighting women's cricket success in recent times.

Double arm celebration is good, but you lose points for the lack of a fabulous moustache. If you could find Dhawan double arming in celebration with a fine handle bar moustache, you may have me beat.

Look at CdG's mo in my avatar, even Tom Selleck on a good facial hair day isn't competing with this lustrous wonder. It is a glorious face slug.

That's the historic Nagin Dance from the #highpressure, #BiggerThanWorldCup Nidahas Trophy, dude

She is a bit old for a start.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Referring 'nagin dance' as double arm celebration. Epic fail

 

[Beamer]

Roach has been rested for the 2nd test. Alzarri Joseph comes in to replace him. Logically Keemo Paul should be a direct replacement for Roach. It would be a damn shame if they bring Joseph in instead of Paul after making him sit for Cummins all this time.

They should definitely drop either Cummins/Bishoo for Keemo.

Last night I dreamt of Devon Smith being appointed as vice-captain. Please tell me that this is false.

This is true.

Last night I dreamt that Bangladesh defeated Windies in the second test and squared the series.
Impossible, you say? Nothing is impossible, particularly for the West Indies.
Implausible, you say? Sri Lanka did it earlier, why can't Bangladesh do it now?

Well, there's the little issue of Bangladesh being flat out awful to overcome so ......
