Tanzim is a fiesty player for sure. If he can add batting down the order it will be massive boost for BD.

BD are a very unwatchable team. I cannot emphasize how boring they are as a cricket team.BD - 172/5 (32 overs).
3 quick wickets. Not good.

It is not about ranking. You can be good but boring and bad but exciting. Problem is BD is bad and boring.They are #9 in ODI ranking for a reason.
If they were watchable, they would've ranked higher.
Bangladesh must win one match atleast

Nothing to do with ranking. Even USA, Afghanistan, Netherlands, Ireland are more fun than BD.Teams outside of top 8 are generally boring. Only Afghanistan is an exception probably.
Associates are hit or miss.

They got some very cheap wins vs Windies. Windies are 2 time ODI Champs and CT Champions.Agree.
Would be very embarrassing to lose to Windies 0-3.
Prior to this series, BD had a 11-0 winning streak against Windies in ODI format.
agree with you there. Afg is very exciting team to watch. Netherlands, again is so full of energy and effort and always makes me support them even if they are playing agianst India. USA, the way they played in world cup was nothing but amazing and some of their players have very good future in world cricket. Compared to all of them, BD comes across as very bland and single dimension team. ODI is their best format and even in that they never look like a team you want to pay to watch.Nothing to do with ranking. Even USA, Afghanistan, Netherlands, Ireland are more fun than BD.
I am watching for Windies, what is the problem? Can I not post here if I don't find BD watchable? No need for that kind of language. I will report you to the mods. Be civil.OK. That's good. So, why you are on this thread and did anyone ask you to watch? LOL.
You are behaving like an overweight Bollywood auntie.
WI never attempts to field their best team most of the times.. they seem to take everything for granted and mostly have become t20 mercenaries. Thankfully they are making a slow comeback.. lets see.. But even on their worst day WI is a better spectator team than BD can ever hope to beThey got some very cheap wins vs Windies. Windies are 2 time ODI Champs and CT Champions.
I agree with you. Not sure why this sweepshot is taking cheap personal shots at me for just saying BD is boring to watch.WI never attempts to field their best team most of the times.. they seem to take everything for granted and mostly have become t20 mercenaries.

WI is going to win this very easily.CWI Announces West Indies Test Squad for Home Series Against Bangladesh
Cricket West Indies (CWI) is excited to unveil the West Indies Test squad for the highly anticipated two-match series against Bangladesh. This home series, scheduled from 22 November to 4 December 2024, in Antigua and Jamaica, marks a crucial chapter as the team looks to capitalize on home conditions and finish the World Test Championship on a high note.
Led by Kraigg Brathwaite, the squad features an exciting mix of seasoned, in-form players and fresh talent. The in-form Justin Greaves is in the squad following a sensational run in the CG United Super50 Cup, where he smashed three centuries. His recent performances have been a highlight of the domestic season and underscores how pivotal domestic platforms are for the next generation of talent. Kevin Sinclair also returns to the squad as a valuable spin bowling option, while Jason Holder will miss the series as he continues rehabilitation for a shoulder injury.
West Indies fans throughout the region can catch the action on ESPN Caribbean, while in Bangladesh, the Toffee digital platform will feature the matches.

BD should not be playing cricket and should have to qualify with associates.38 year old Mahmudullah who is probably in his final 12 months of professional cricket is still their best bat. Shows how far BD has come.
I reported your earlier post where you called me overweight Bollywood aunty - showing xenophobic and gender biased mentality in response to someone saying a cricket team was boring to watch. No need to invoke religion and God here.I thank Allah for the ignore button here. It makes things very peaceful.
BD - 279/5 (47 overs).
Good over for BD. 17 off it.
they resort to insults, because they have no point. They resort to religion because they know people won't say anything if they invoke religion and God.I reported your earlier post where you called me overweight Bollywood aunty - showing xenophobic and gender biased mentality in response to someone saying a cricket team was boring to watch.

Rutherford is very dangerous , BD needs his wicket asap.
Rain delay.
Players are getting off.
Isn't it a dead rubber?BD losing it again.
BD lost the plot badly, a whitewash incoming nowWindies - 204/4 (31 overs).
They are cruising.
118 are needed from 108 balls.

Amir Jangoo was the leading runscorer in the recent West Indies domestic 50 over competition.
He also averaged 100 in their last 4 day championship so a Test callup may be beckoning too.
Sadly like the vast majority of current WI batsmen - the overall domestic averages are poor and don't bode well for international cricket. Just finding someone with a FC average above 30 has been a challenge for WI selectors.
Their prospects look fine in T20 and can win the occasional ODI series 6at home.Needles negativity, brother Markhor. You are seeing the Caribbean white ball revival in full swing under Sammy. This is cause for celebration
Even teams like Australia are struggling to find young elite Test class batters.
Forget about under-resourced and limited markets like the Caribbean .
Their prospects look fine in T20 and can win the occasional ODI series 6at home.
However they haven't won an away ODI series vs a Test playing nation since 2019 (Afghanistan).
But I'm here for the Amir Jangoo Golden Era
