Newsflash.... Bangers are sh!te.

But then again so were the Lankans once. One hopes that they will eventually step up.

Tamim's a classy little player though, would be nice if he weren't a Bangla. Can't see him fulfilling his potential in this rubbish team.

Aye, there is some promise in the side. But they never seem to kick on.

Ashraful is a disappointment. He has fast feet, eye and hands but throws his wicket away far too easily.

Their spinners look pretty classy, and Mortaza bowled well today.

And I remain totally frustrated at ShyTYT's lack of ability to engender faith in his bowling. He bats well and looks as solid as a rock at first slip. If he could just become a FC bowler, damn he'd be useful at no. 7 or 8 for Aus.

I thought you didn't like Whitey?

I am still hoping he can get a go as a specialist batsmen for Australia one day. Because that is the only way he will get a go if his bowling does not improve.

A very boring ODI, lit up by Hussey's beautiful 6 in the last over.

Mate, if YT could learn to land and turn his leg break, I'd be his no. 1 supporter. He has the potential to be an all-rounder of Simon O'Donnell class. I am just so disappointed that his bowling has gone backwards in the past few years.

'Our performances have been spot on' - Clarke

Seems like Clarke is totally satisfied by his team's performance.

Waste of time and money.

FFS Bangladesh. Why aren't they improving at all? They have a cricket mad population, heaps of youngsters, and they do pretty well against the top nations in under 19 cricket. What is going wrong at the top level? Why aren't they showing the slightest improvement?

Is this a double bluff from Sutherland?

Phurt. Sutherland is just being his normal fence-sitting self. But hopefully it does make Roy wake up, toe the line and come back bigger then ever next summer.
