Bangladesh Cricket Board going the ECB way?



Andy Bull of The Guardian and Cricketsoccer’s Suraj have nailed ECB’s idea of 100-ball cricket. I have lost my respect for Andrew Strauss and I still could not understand how a former Test cricketer and successful captain could come up with such a rubbish idea? He is talking crap about this 100-ball format.

Meanwhile, in Bangladesh, Bangladesh Cricket Board isplanning the same like ECB. Well, Akram Khan had been a very impactful cricketer in the history of Bangladesh cricket, but the problem occurs when he opens his mouth and comes up with ridiculous ideas. I ask, as a Test nation what have Bangladesh achieved in these 18 years? Does Bangladesh need to implement a rubbish idea like 100-ball cricket?

Nations like West Indies and Bangladesh are shifting heavily towards these jokes of a format and in Bangladesh they have a bunch of paid-people from media to support such acts. An Andy Bull is a rarity in Bangladesh. That’s why a two-tier system is needed to teach a lesson to those who don’t take Test cricket seriously.

Whatever Bangladesh have gained through cricket is all because of that coveted Test status. They are needed to be reminded that fact in a very strict manner.
