Spin options for Pakistan

If indications from Waqar Younis are anything to go by, Pakistan are unlikely to pick a fourth specialist bowler for Saturday's crunch game against co-hosts Sri Lanka at the R Premadasa. Pakistan comprehensively beat Kenya in their tournament opener on Wednesday, but played, in Umar Gul, Shoaib Akhtar and Abdur Rehman, with just three specialist bowlers. Shahid Afridi is as good as a specialist bowler but the caution to fill the line-up with batsmen and batsmen who can bowl, has led to an under-utilisation of Abdul Razzaq.

Razzaq batted at No. 8 in the last game, as he has done in 14 of 18 ODIs in the last year. He has played a few significant innings but more than his performances, the question has been whether he is being allowed, in the current line-up, to have the fullest impact on a game. Pakistan have compensated by using him as an opening bowler, but even there he remains under-used: in those 18 ODIs, he has bowled 91.4 overs or, on average, roughly five overs a game. Never once has he bowled the whole quota and he has picked up eight wickets. ......Read More

Players and Coaches come together

Dissent and criticism of the ICC's decision to cull Associate nations from the 2015 World Cup intensified further on the opening day of the current tournament. Grant Flower, Zimbabwe's batting coach, and Canada's captain Ashish Bagai added their voices to a growing chorus of dissatisfaction that has, if not overshadowed the opening days, then dampened a little the celebratory nature of the occasion.

Already a number of Associate countries, foremost among them Kenya's chief executive Tom Sears, have hit out at the ICC's reaffirmation on Friday of a decision taken in October last year. Afghanistan and Netherlands have also weighed in: "Our players are always motivated but those comments were disappointing," Netherlands team manager Ed van Nierop told AFP.

Mashrafee is a great concern for the World Cup

Bangladesh's best almost bowler Mashrafee bin Mortaza is still a big question mark for the team of Bangladesh about upcoming World Cup. This bowler had suffered through injuries. The return of the first holder Mashrafee am Murtaza to competitive cricket impressed hardly coach Jamie Siddons despite the injury prone to bowler perform decently in his comeback match for Abahani in the Premier League of Dhaka on Saturday.

Mashrafee rolled all 10 overs back zugestehend its quota with a wicket 55 runs and took what the title decision makers of the League against their bitter rivals was Mohammedan SC two main catches

But Siddons gave little importance for his performance and was skeptical about the pace he created at the same time.   He also refused to pay any attention to the bowler that is not part of the World Cup team.

"Mashrafee is not, so I'm not really worried about him at the moment", Siddons said after practice on Sunday.

' I have three fast bowlers in my squad. I'm not worried about anyone who is outside of the squad. I am concerned about Nazmul, rubles and Shafiul, "he said."

' Is very different from International Cricket Club cricket. There are far better batsman play international cricket and the wickets are far better. International Cricket is a different game altogether,' said Siddons.

He also ruled the Mashrafee opportunities come directly in the Bangladesh team, even if he is totally fit for World Cup as other equations he needed an entry make to meet are.

' Pulp is outside of the squad. There are three fast bowlers in the team, we are concerned. Mash must keep his recovery to do, and it goes really well. I hope that he is from the World Cup, then he has his hands to a substitute, otherwise there is no opportunity,' said Siddons.

"He has injury and if he fit from the World Cup to get, it's fantastic." Currently he is still in recovery. I'm only concerned about the 15 players in the squad,' said Siddons.
