He becomes the most prolific wicketkeeper in Test history, passing Ian Healy's 395 dismissals.

Not the greatest 'keeper of all time, but a wonderful servant to South African cricket who probably still has another 3-4 years left in him.

What part of what I said is BS? Is he not 18? Is his name not Mushfiqur Rahim? Is he not a Bangladeshi? Enlighten me, please.

That the Bangles will find bowlers to get him close to 600 dismissals.

Ah I see. Arrogantly dismissing the future prospects of a team that has already beaten South Africa once in international cricket. Good one.

Well, your point depends on

1. they will get the bowlers mentioned by Taips

2. they will start playing more than 4 tests a year

3. the player mentioned will be good enough to play over 100 tests

So basically, suggesting that he could break Boucher's record is a pile of pointless conjecture; i.e., shit.

In a world cup super 8 'jamodi'. Perspective gotten.

4 years ago Bangladesh got beaten by Canada and were being ridiculed by all and sundry. This year they beat India and South Africa and turned more than a few heads. To say it's 'bullshit' that they wont find a pair of world class bowlers in the next 4-5 year is arrogance in the extreme.

I fail to see how SUGGESTING(like you said) than the 18 year old wicketkeeper of an up and coming test nation will break Mark Boucher's 'keeping record one day is 'bullshit'.

When is a jamodi not a jamodi?

They will doubtless get some better bowlers. But to say they will get enough bowlers good enough to enable the keeper to get 600 dismissals is arrant claptrap.

They're a country of over 150 million people with a fanatical cricket following. They'll get much, much better. Trust me.

If anything, it's South Africa who will be struggling to find 2 world class bowlers in 5 years time. They'll all be playing for England.
