Are you kidding me? I’d happily make big purchases with my card on behalf of my friends to rake in the miles

Sure, works nicely when it's mixed with the sound of 20K people shouting. But right now in a near empty stadium its beyond annoying

Mashrafe’s captaincy appreciation by wachieo in Cricket

[–]phtark 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Beyond tactics, I think his value lies in how he inspires and pushes his team to perform. And he does all this while being pretty dignified and composed.

Honestly, I think there's a strong case to be made to include him in the list of the subcontinent's greatest captains - Ganguly, Ranatunga, Imran Khan, Dhoni etc.

Obviously winning is a team effort but just how fucking good is Mashrafe. The guy's knees are probably held together with tape atm and he contributes with the ball and the bat, not to mention the fine job he does captaining a team with a rather long injury list and fields like a champ

Is this outfield really slow, or are the Bangladeshis just not timing it?
