*Official* Bangladesh in New Zealand 2016/2017

260/7 at home against Bangladesh of all teams :laugh:

Are we really that bad now?

Bangladesh have bowled well.
Now imagine what will happen when this NZ side faces world class bowlers... it's going to get ugly.

So we need Nicholls and Southee to bat well, when most NZ fans want them either dropped or dropped down the order.

I see the much maligned HN is now averaging over 40 at no. 5 (batted 4 v Australia and 3 in India).

Nicolls, Santner (doesn't even bowl nowadays) and CdG aren't international standard.

I'd like to see Neesham, Anderson and Broom/Guptill in the side.

Watling and Southee also haven't been performing and Raval could be quickly on the way out too.

Raval hasn't been great, he has had plenty of lives in the games he's played and has failed to make use of them.

That's half the side that isn't either good enough or on the verge of being dropped. No surprise why we have been struggling... half the side isn't contributing anything to the team..

I had to Google that one. I'm guessing it is "what a stupid concept" but it might be white Anglo Saxon Catholic, or West African Social Climber.

He was a super humble dude aye, didn't get any of the diva-ish kinda vibe that's been coming through the media lately.

I'd like to see Guptill play 50 tests.

So then he can be the answer to 'who's the worst player to play 50 tests?'
