BBB: Best Bangladeshi Batsman

[Migara]

What about BBC: Best Bangladeshi catcher?

Reminded me of Mia Khalifa taking on BBC.

Compare this to Arjuna Ranatunga, from 18 to 21 years, look at the averages



And Aravinda de Silva 18 to 21 years of age.

These two got far less matches to play when they hit their purple patches in mid to late 80s. Arjuna was good to average 40 while Aravinda was good to average in high 40s.

Thanks for explaining the joke with all the subtlety of a sledgehammer

Happens to a lot of batsmen who debuted at young ages. Martin Crowe started against Lillee and Thomson and really struggled, then in his late career had terrible knee problems - should've finished with av of 50 instead of 45. Likewise, Williamson might've scored a 100 on debut in India but really struggled for 3-4 years and then has averaged about 60 ever since.

Actually the link is to "Hard" Talk show of BBC.

there is pun upon another.

And the joke flied over your head as well.

This escalated quickly

@Aritro though I hesitate to take the side of Burgey popping his head into to have a crack at the respectable Bangladesh cricket team, that table you posted doesn't exactly show what you think it does. If you add them together:

Aus: 23225 runs @ 53
Ban: 15105 runs @ 43

And the Australians have played on average stronger opposition as well.

So again, don't disagree with your motive, but if you're going to bite in a nationalistic dick waving context you need better ammunition

Without minnow I know Tamim ave 38.Which is close to 40.So it is still respectable.
