As a BD supporter I guess I was more releived than overjoyed at beating Kenya.
I did however feel bad for Kenya. The cricketing world have not treated them well and they've literally had no cricket except for Zimbabwe as of late and they really have no backing from their people or administrators so its sad to say that their cricket is more on the decline.
As for BDs performance we played more like the way some of the test playing countries have played us.
Lets face it it is a weak Kenyan side but when you consider that we had lost 6 out of 7 of our previous games against them this performance certainly shows the gap that has evolved between the 2 sides.
BD still have a very very long way to go and its only just the beginning. I don't think any of the other sides will take them likely and right now they can defintely put pressure on the opposition. They still havent learnt to go for the kill. Also lets not forget that most of the side is under 25 and only 3 players are in their 30s. Should be interesting to see BD in about 5 yrs time I think.
I'm eagerly waiting to see Australia in BD.
Mind you I don't expect us to win anything but I certainly do expect a good fight for now.

Cracking stuff from the Tigers, decent all round performance. Shahriar Nafees and Javed Omar showed how effective they were at setting up a platform and allowing the later batsmen to turn up the heat. I wouldn't get too carried away with Mashrafe as an all-rounder though, he tends to struggle against real block-hole yorkers.

An excellent performance by the tigers, should look forward now.. they should continue this.. and impress better.. they need to move forward and take everything as it comes.. They have shown a lot of maturity after the series with Srilanka..

Im satisfyed by this performance but a bit annoyed they didn't go for the kill at the end and let their guard down. Hope in the next match they won't be complacent and go out there and hammer Kenya some more... however I still remember last year how after thrashing Zimbabwe in the first test they almost payed dearly for taking them too lightly...hope they remember that lesson this time round

yeah he was indeed good. But that was past. Long absent from international cricket probably done the damage. But the main problem with Kenya is the shortage of young players. Only some families plays cricket. Bangladesh on the other hand now days more concerned with the U13, U15 and U19 teams. Thats why they have affluent quality young players in the pipeline. Now its very difficult now for the selectors to select 15 players for U19 out of 50, because all of them are excellent.
Kenya just lost another wicker as I was writing. 25/3 in 12 overs.
