Bangladesh cricket


Our cricket team has again suffered an innings defeat by the mighty Australian side. I wonder how much our cricketers have learned from their past-mistakes. Appointing Dave Whatmore as a coach, is definitely a positive sign for the future of our cricket but one thing that our cricketers need to do is to change their attitude towards the game.

No matter whoever scores a century or a half-century, no matter whoever takes 5 wickets in a match, I think no compliments should be given to them until and unless these individual performances lead up to team victory. On the other hand, those who make silly mistakes in the field should not be excused because they should know that they are letting their country down and these types of mistakes cannot be repeated over and over again.
