Another poor performance from Tamim as well as the whole team, 52/3. How this batting line up has turned into such poor, lol. Soumya as well as not have a good form for a long time. I think change is now must. I am not sure what's the current performance of Anamul Haque, this guy wasn't able to play after going off for an injury. Bangladesh team management isn't doing a proper job, to be honest.

You guys are evading my point. He will not play in other position than OPENING.
Check howstat, in ODI, TEST, T20- he had played one match other than OPENING position, in 5th in a test match. This is stupid. I too think changing position would bring great result.
Yeah I get it :-)
What I am saying is, try him in 4th or 5th position. Since he is the captain now, he can easily take him down to one of those position. Tamim needs a change. He is a very good batsman no doubt.

By the way, we will see how he performs today too. The 2nd ODI is going to start in an hour I think.

They can easily ask him to come at 4th or 5th position. It's much easier now since he is captain. In one or two match he himself can experiment changing his batting order. Tamim is a very good player and I believe he plays for his country and team.
This is a good idea and the Bangladesh team needs to consider this. His batting average as I mentioned earlier is pretty low for an opening batsman and he would fit well in the number 4 position in my opinion.

Also, moving Mahmudullah up the order would be a smart move since I feel its a waste of talent letting him play down the order.

Yeah alternative should be there or maybe moving down the order of batsman might also help as some players change their playing style when in pressure. Tamim is a good player but he has to show the results which the management is hoping from him to show following his selection.

I missed that part, earlier I made a reply to Hanabue, I think there's only one player who never played other than OPENING position despite his worst form. Does this make any sense? He has played 202 ODI, and in all of this match, he played in OPENING position. I have no problem with him playing despite his off form, but at least changing position might give the team better opportunity.
I'm 99% sure he did the same in other format, can't remember though.

Do you know Tamim never played in other position than opening? That's a stupidity. If someone performs bad in a position, he must be placed in other position

He was not performing well and on top of it they made him captain. This is huge responsibility for a player. We have seen player like Sachin could not handle it. The board can observe one or two more match to allow Tamim to come back but if he can't then I think they need to find an alternative and I think in this Bangladesh team there are plenty of batsman who can replace him.

I can't deny that Tamim is a good batsman. He had his good times as well, and bad as well. Even if he had off form, he wasn't dropped from the team, even though we had good batsman who can replace him nicely. You think I'm talking shit because he has not performed well in the world cup? Man, other than some of his loyal fan (die hard, lol), to everyone else he is burden. We need a good performance in current, if someone is taken because of his previous performance, it would be fool. In case of Tamim, playing such worst innings at row, he wasn't dropped. You can't imagine what would be in case of other batsmans.
You are not talking shit, you are making sense :-)
Allowing a player to give time is good. Players can have off form and if the team does not support them in their hard time and replace them in the squade then it creates extra pressure for the players. Tamim is lucky that he has not faced it. But everything should have a boundary line. Seems like he is at the edge of this line.

Bangladesh team needs to find some good bowlers and this seems the hardest part for their management.

Talking about Tamim, that reference from Pffrt does not look good. Tamim is a good player as far as I know but that does not mean he become the burden of the team. In the world cup and in the last match he seems a burden for his team.

They need more bowlers like Mustafizur Rahman, Sarkar and Shakib in order to improve their bowling lineup.
If I am not wrong then Sarkar is not even a strike bowler but he is taking crucial wickets in matches. The entire Bangladesh team really needs to find some good bowlers.

By the way, the Legend (Malinga) finished his ODI career with a wicket in the last ball. This is a very sweet ending. He deserved it.

Have Fun )@@( Stay Safe
It's not really strange. Cricket fans are not very tech savvy, they go to a field and lay down eating chips. It's not a gentleman's game it's a lazy spectator's sport. A lot has changed with the new formats limitations and the T20 mode, but its still a grill. And the only reason anyone talks about Cricket on Bitcointalk is because of signature campaigns. Not because of the game itself.
PS: Bangladesh's got nothing against a world cup winning team like SriLanka.
I understand your observation simply because your thought process is that SriLanka being a world cup winning team in 1996, Bangladesh have no chance to win against them Tongue. Have you seen any performance of Bangladesh and SriLanka recently and came to this conclusion, Yes Srilanka won the first match quite convincingly but Bangladesh was missing Shakib Al Hasan in the team and he is an integral part in the team.

Sarkar isn't a regular bowler  Cheesy
However, he has done pretty much better than regular bowler since the world cup. Each time we needed a wicket, he has done that part. I can't see a bowler like Syed Rasel in BD team for a long time. We are really lack of good bowlers.
One thing is sure that Bangladesh is now much improved and good side but they need match winner like Shakib they are missing this otherwise surely they can beat Sri Lanka easily but in yesterday match we miss this which cost them match. Now every team need all-rounders like Shakib Pandya and Imad if they want to win matches.

It's not rumor, mate. It's the truth. He is backed by his uncle. A good begining can change the whole picture of a match.
Do you know Tamim never played in other position than opening? That's a stupidity. If someone performs bad in a position, he must be placed in other position but it's his passion/fashion that he will not play other than opening position. Board can't do anything because his uncle Akram Khan is the chief selector of BCB.
Observed that his batting average is pretty poor for an opener which is why I believe that they need to find a better replacement asap in order to improve their opening order. Middle order seems set currently.

Bangladesh has to make some batting changes starting with Tamim. His whole performance in World cup was flop show and now he is continuing his worst form in ODI as well. Every team expects a good start from their opening batsman and they are not making up to the expectations is what I think.
I agree. Heard that Tamim had some kind of references though I am not sure how credible the rumors are in this regard. Tamim really needs to step up his game if he wishes to continues playing for his side currently.

Bangladesh clearly missed Shakib in this match which goes to show how dependent they have become on him which isn't a good thing. Drastic changes are required.
Drastic changes isn't possible, we don't have much good players at the moment other the current team. Bowling options can be changed though. Missed Shakib.

Without Shakib, we are still the same team? May be. This was really sad to see Bangladesh losing the match like this. I didn't expect a 100% win but didn't expect such lose either.
Anyway, Malinga got a happy ending, that's what the measure fact. SL will now be more weak team without him, he was a great asset to the team.

Unfortunately Bangladesh lost to Srilanka yesterday but i thought current Bangladesh team was much better than Srilanka team. Eliminating Malinga and adding Shakib might have changed the result.

It will be very hard to chase this total for Bangladesh Now. They already lost their 4 Top-ranked batsmen for 137 runs in 25.3 overs. So rest of the batsmen are very unexperienced and they have not any experience of finishing any match with a win. So now the match is depending on Musfiqur Rahim and Sabbir Rahman. If both will out quickly in under 30 overs then Bangladesh can not win the game even can not reach 270 runs in total.

Mushfiqur did play well but it was not enough to chase the srilankan massive total of 315. Malinga and Pradeep took 5 wickets between them making the run chase impossible for Bangladesh.
