Mr. inconsistent!
Nasih Ul Wadud Alam, Premier University, Ctg
I have to admit that Ashraful and Rahim have played a gem of an innings during the second innings on the 3rd day's play of the second Test against Sri Lanka, as their vigorous and resilient batting made the Lankans a thing or two to worry about, but prior to that the Bangladeshi batting had been giving us perpetual shocks, which paved the way for the so-called conscious critics to rip off our Test status. We have seen a great innings from Ashraful. But if he plays well in one innings, then he fails to live up to the expectations in the next few. He is not the young buddy anymore. It should be noted that Tendulkar began to take up the gigantic responsibilities of his team from this age, in which he passed the best part of his cricketing life. Tendulkar used to make a quick-fire 30 plus in the early days of his career, but he exposed himself to criticism for not metamorphosing the fifties into hundreds. Suddenly, Tendulkar became consistent. Ashraful ought to follow the example of Tendulkar.
