One Man One Pitch

Mushfiqur Rahim channels his inner Matthew Hayden and considers the 22 yards of pain and glory.

Jumping For Joy

There can be few more uplifting experiences than beating big brother, and earning the chance to do it again.

Kumar From Number 4

Good player, nice fella, but as we say in the antipodes Kumar has the look of a possum in the headlights.

Bangladesh seems to be developing a more aggressive and disciplined approach but this may be a bit too harsh.
