Ebadot? Really?

Bangladesh have been dominant and fully deserve the position they're in.
Regardless of the result now, fully expect there to be an inquest as to the poor NZ performance along the lines of:
* No Plunket Shield lead-in games
* Is the Bay Oval the ground to play our 3 swing bowlers + Wagner, and a part-time spinner? Need a bit more variety in the attack on these type of pitches I feel.
* Are the bowlers fit enough (except Wagner)? Pace was well down, and Jamieson looked out of sorts throughout. They haven't played that much cricket recently so perhaps it's match fitness? Comes back to no lead-in games for me.
* I realise Ravindra is a fan-favourite and he certainly has a great future, but he's an opener who bowls spin part-time. He should be challenging for Will Young's place, not coming into the middle/late-order. I'd prefer to see an aggressive CdG type player take his place who would add more value. Mitchell has a claim to take his place for the next Test and SA series I reckon.
* I've found McCullum's comments on Latham's captaincy interesting throughout the Test. You can read between the lines that he isn't a fan. It's a bit of a shame the commentary team is so close to the playing group that you can't get honest opinions on what he really thinks.

Well Taskin is supposedly borderline Quick and Ebadot has been consistently faster
Aritro
International Regular
Bowled 140+ all day against Pakistan and is starting to generate some heat here FWIW

Lol yeah, might have been a good match not to drop the bloke who just took a 10-fa
Skyliner
International 12th Man
142 kph is pretty sharp...
22.6
Ebadot Hossain to Young, FOUR runs
141.7kph, Young nearly fell into the trap there.
He's hit Taylor, did Conway for pace, and hurried up Young, one aerial edge evading third slip.

Moooo
One of the commentators earlier likened him to Siraj

He was awesome in that apell before tea tbh
Aritro
International Regular
He was complete **** to the point of parody for a good number of matches but has improved massively under Ottis Gibson. His pace has gone up and he was actually consistently 140+ bowling on hot days on dead Deshi decks vs Pakistan. For some reason he's actually been slower in this match.
I'll give the selectors some credit for persisting with him. He's a good natural athlete and it sounds like he took up serious cricket quite late in life so it makes sense he had more development to do than most.

All speeds have been down for all bowlers which suggests he might hit higher 140s elsewhere

Good to see Herath discussing tactics with Miraz
