Bangladesh cricket matures
S.A.Mansoor,Gulshan, Dhaka
The convincing win over South Africa heralds the maturity of Bangladesh cricket. The team deserves our unqualified congratulations for their professional performance. One more victory will fill our cup of joy. Hopefully, we have stepped into the list of teams which on their day can take on any team in the world of cricket. We are rightfully proud of the Tigers!A little more discipline in batting and going for the basics in running are the areas to improve. A little more tenacity and stamina, then we will be a cricketing force to reckon with. The tour of Indian cricket team next month will be crucial for our reputation. After their disaster in the World Cup; which was our doing; they are out for blood and revenge both in the ODIs and the Tests! Pre-warned is pre-armed; and we must be on our toes to keep the Indians at bay. A Test victory against India, if not a certainty, should be a probability; and our team should be focused on a good show when we host them. A series win? But then what's the harm in dreaming big, for at least in dreams the sky is no longer the limit. Let's be prepared, determined, with our players on their toes; for this will be a series to watch!
