Bangladesh cricket team


What has happened to our national cricket team? Is it an "act of fate" that the Bangladesh cricket team is losing again and again and that too by a big margin against almost all the teams? I do not want to sound too drastic, but just listen, my fellow players in the team: I really do not have time, neither does everyone else (some of us have to sweat hard to pass finals), but we carry on giving our time and support to the team . To see an improvement is all we look for, maybe a draw, maybe batting into the 5th day or maybe even playing a good game of catch!

I am not saying everyone is doing badly , we actually have a very good line-up on paper, but for some odd reason no one seems to work collectively. That's all. Excuse me, I have to hit the books, must work, but please ponder on this for just a moment. On our last session the number 10 batsman scored more runs than 4 of the 5 top order batsmen for Bangladesh combined... no jokes, seriously...
