How Good is Tamim?

[OverratedSanity]

In all seriousness, you're blinded by parochialism, as he is right now he'd be lucky to get a game or 2 each year in the Shield.

Evidence?

Troll harder *****, why am I the only one in here posting seriously and sensibly?

Evidence?

How could there possibly any evidence either way?

What are you even asking?

Guys TJB doesn't even watch cricket; he just posts here for the reactions.

Tbf so does Burgey. Can't ban TJB if we don't ban him.

It's weird how often I come into a thread and it just turns to ****, ironically not because of anything I do but because everyone sees me and just starts ****posting. I almost feel bad about it.

Also, OS, Burge Bluth Sr makes an effort if he wants to bait someone and maintains some standards we have all come to expect from him when he does so.

I don't think so but that doesn't take away from him being a good batsman and the best in the Bang side...which can't be that hard. I've always been impressed by his ability against Eng, he loves to eat them up

I remember around 2010-11 when the BD coach Jamie Siddons had said the same thing - that Tamim and Shakib make it to every test side including Australia (this was when Warner wasn't quite the batsman that he is now and Australia were struggling with their opening slot) and yet the consensus was still - he won't even get into the Shield side.

Shakib maybe gets in as a spinner alone in the Australia side but Tamim? lol na

Tamim makes any test team that presently hasn't a settled pair of opening batsmen, on account of being a more than serviceable test opener.

Batting records | Test matches | Cricinfo Statsguru | ESPN Cricinfo

Tamim Iqbal has 736 runs (3 100s, 5 50s) at 61.33 against England.

That's a higher batting average vs England than Rahul Dravid, Gary Sobers, Mike Hussey, Steve Waugh, Dean Jones, Arthur Morris and, of course, Allan Border.

Tamim WAFG.
