Bangladesh men's play the most matches. 😲 Should win something or at least reach finals with so much of matches.

True

Also why SA is playing soo less is beyond me

I dont like the schedule. Should have been a round Robin with everyone playing everyone. This is just a way to increase ind v pak matches nothing else. I am really tired of playing pak and seeing all the media frenzy and hype and all the BS that goes on in india.

Pakistan and South Africa both playing fewer tests than Bangladesh!

Looks odd, especially if SA reach the final of the current WTC cycle (they're placed fairly well to do so currently)

3rd T20I: Indore, October 4th

1st ODI: Lucknow, October 6th

Trivandrum to Guwahati and then Indore- they're really making the poor Saffas travel a fair bit! 😆

They play truck load of T20s during IPL. They can reduce few T20Is and replace them with Tests.

But again I guess not all nations in the list are equipped to play more tests (in other words other nations refuse to play tests with them, which is a worry) so, number of tests is uneven across the table.

Back to Bangladesh. Bangladesh is small nation with less privileges. I must say they are doing well. More matches will expose them to different conditions in the world and eventually they will improve.

Cheers..

i hope they at least improve by then 😔 i keep my expectations low cause the senior players of bd r retiring post 2023 wc or at least soon after so it might be a changing phase for them as its the younger batch now. problem is none of the younger players r consistent, and when they r off form they r horribly off form. the only bd batter who was consistent throghout this year was liton das, that guy is damn underrated.he n bairstow r the top 2 run getters so far(all format wise). the worse thing he is injured n bd doesnt even have a proper opener in asia cup as tamim is retired in t20is. only the bowlers r doing well, but when they do bad the team is doomed batting n fielding r still weak. from bd, i only like liton das and ebadot hossain among their younger players these days.

Cheers..
