Very little is left to be said about the Bangladesh batsmen this year. They have been held predominantly responsible for the repeated failures and ahead of the three-match Test series against Zimbabwe, their closest rival in the game, the spotlight has once again fallen on this weary lot.
Even when they bat in the nets, the focus is on their sudden burst of big hits. All of them do it and from afar, it looks out of place while preparing for a Test match. It has been happening during preparation for this series too, but maybe the eyes subconsciously look for these chinks in their make-up. Or perhaps they do play too many shots in the nets. Has that brought about their downfall?
In 2014, they have put together only one performance worth remembering in Test cricket, when Mominul Haque's hundred against Sri Lanka ensured a draw in Chittagong in February. It came after a dreadful first Test in Dhaka, and afterwards too, the brittle batting has come in the way of recovery, safety and dominance. Often, it has led to that dreaded collapse or a steady disintegration that never looked like being overturned
Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.
