U r confused. If tomorrow Brazil gets disintegrated into two parts like the way Germany got seperated after ww2, nobody will start saying that West Brazil or East Brazil has started playing international football in 2018. Right?
Now u might ask that then BD was also a part of Pak before 71, then why do they have such a short cricket history. Very good question. But the thing is cricket was never considered as a sport in this part of the world. Football has always ruled here.
As a matter of fact Bangladesh didn't even have a structure of first class cricket even 20 years ago since the national cricket league in Bangladesh started in 2000. Comare it with a country like India who has introduced Ranji trophy almost 100 years ago. There's no comparison.
India was the whooping boys in their first couple of decades in cricket and routinely got beaten to the pulp by other international teams. Similarly New Zealand took 40 years to win their first ever test series. There's nothing wrong in accepting the fact that compared to these slow learners Bangladesh is in a different league.
20 years haven't even passed since Bangladesh introduced national cricket league and it has already produced a great of the game like shakib as well as world class players like mushy, Tamim, fizz. Just imagine what class of players Bangladesh would've produced if it had had a domestic structure with 100 years of experience like Indian Ranji trophy.

You can’t put any logical arguments on becoming powerhouse with current ranking positions. With stress of imagination, after 10-12 years may be we can hope, but that’s not based on current “talent”. As of now, at least put a word “potential”, you can have something for good posters here to get engaged.

International T20s certainty don't matter unless its a world cup. Ask any experts and they will tell u that international T20s and its rankings r as pointless as it can get. U can have a different opinion obviously, but that's the general perception of the mass.
Performanc in Tests and ODIs is what matters the most.

Firstly, it was you who came up with such an attention seeking OP not me - so I'm not the attention seeker.
Deep down you know Afghanistan will overtake Bangladesh in the near future. They have better genetics and are just far more talented individuals. With BCCI backing their progression will continue. The loss of 4 LOI games out of the last 5 against them is just a sign of things to come.
I'd be more concerned about your 7th ranking and lack of success away from home with no ICC trophies to date rather than being obsessive about Pakistan, after all you're on a Pakistani cricket forum to seek approval from Pakistani (and Indian) fans on here with threads like this.
"Losing a t20 series which has little to no significance in the world arena unless its a world t20"
Then why bring up the Nidhas final as an achievement?
Don't be so delusional, you lost the QF WC 3 yrs ago because India was the better team - stop reading off Nazmul's script for once. He's a disgrace but yet you reek of the same sour grapes as he does.
In addition the 2017 CT Semi final spot was a fluke because you were saved by rain against Aus when they were 100 runs away, with 9 wickets in hand and 34 overs to spare. There was only going to be one winner against that minnow bowling attack.
I don't know how old you are but you epitomise the lack of maturity among many of the Bangladesh fans with their childish antics and if I was you I would beg admin to delete this thread ASAP because it has turned into a bashing and trolling thread of you as a poster - serving everyone great entertainment.

Honestly speaking BD has never been a sports nation ever so let alone this talk of powerhouse blah blah. As you mentioned that football was the game in bd, well my friend they lack their too.
As far as your posts have been concerned the only players that you can name in each post are either shakib..mushy or tamim. Pak..ind..and other countries have produced similar stars in more qty. To be a powerhouse ..talent should be flowing into your system not some 3 guys that are on your fingers tips. Neil johnson and andy flower were great from zimbabwe, were they powerhouse. This thread is such that even level headed and intelligent BD posters have avoided getting into it because they too realise that BD is an improved crixket team but not some next powerhouse team where teams will start sweating. Honestly speaking i have a lot of bd friemds who themselves say that we can do a lot better and are improving every year but they do realise that they have limitations. For me powerhouse definition is india and england ( financially powerful and a good talent pool with a 1st class domestic structure along with adminstration)
Your assumption is an assumption and sadly a poor one but my friend becoming a powerhouse is based on stats amd sadly they translate a different picture to your powerhouse team.
You can also say that for me BD won the 2015 worldcup or nidahas trophy or asia cup and this is my opinion and i dont care about yours but that doesnt change the reality. Please dont be a keyboard warrior who is defending something that is not even worth it. Might as well change the thread to improved nation and maybe you may get some constructive comments in here.

Hi again, yes Bangladesh will be favourites in the ODI format as we are pretty useless at the moment. To be honest the match was good for neutrals but was painful to watch for a hardcore fan like me. Bang played well and deserved to win.
coming to your future, you really need a world class spinner and a world class medium/fast pacer. Everyone else like fizz etc can then play around this duo. If you can find this duo you should be pretty formidable in most ODI conditions..

At this point they ain't even 3rd best in Asia
SL is well ahead of them in tests and also ranked above in t20is
They have also got better talents to get excited about
Someone like Kusal Mendis who frustrates a lot with his inconcistency has already played more impactful knocks than any if their youngsters

Some Bangla fans have a serious inferiority complex which is visible in threads like these and them hyping what are inconsequential things to actual powerhouses or even half-decent teams. When Bangladesh actually does something consequential in all three formats, they will be applauded by everyone rather than fans trying to get people to respect them.
A great first step would be not playing test cricket like minnows.

Lose in ODIs (away/alien conditions): Every team loses away.
Win in ODIs (home/similar conditions): Bangladesh is power house in cricket.
Earlier it was 2nd best Asian side, now a step further a power house globally

No need to be harsh on Bangladeshi fans. Almost all of them on PP are nice posters and don't gloat much. Even if some do we shouldn't be harsh because Indian and Pakistani fans have been through this phase earlier in their history. Only Sri Lankan fans can claim the moral high ground because they have almost always been level headed and chilled out. One poster started this thread and I am not sure behind his intentions, maybe he isn't even Bangladeshi and just trolling.
Whatever said and done they had a bad day today and it is never nice to kick someone when that person is down, schadenfreude isn't the hallmark of decent people. Moreover they might still fight back and win, test isn't over by any stretch of imagination.

If a team is a powerhouse then its fans need not open a thread to prove that to others. I do not see the need for the fan of a real powerhouse team to do that.
Coming to this test match, it appears that Bangladesh, which used to win at home on spinning track are themselves unable to play decent spin. At that rate, they may not be able to win even at home if the opponents have decent spinners in their ranks.

Every cricket fan wants Ban cricket team to progress. Other fans are not dilusional like some of their fans. We do admire guys like Mortaza, Shakib, Mahmadulla. These guys are very good people wheather their team is winning or losing.
Only 1-2 players and some fans think that they are world beaters and end up making mockery of themselves.

No one takes T20 seriously besides W20 or IPL. Do you take T10 seriously?
Test cricket should be taken seriously, and this loss against ZIM was absolutely pathetic. No excuse here.
This is really bad for you guys too actually since you got crushed by Eng, who even lost to this hapless BD side last time they were here.

Very disappointing performance by BD. Losing a test at home to this Zimbabwe team of all teams is unacceptable. 3 years ago, BD were on top of SA in a test match. Looks like the team has regressed a bit.

For me every format is cricket. It's a different thing that tests are the most challenging format. But all formats have ranking so all got to be respected.
Coming to Eng series, I'll accept we were thrashed. But, never did we say that this format is useless. For India, tests are the most respected ones.

Im not sure how you work that out though. England have been pathetic away from home in the last 5 years apart from a good tour of SA . India are pathetic in England but range from exceptional to decent everywhere else we play. BD have no business losing to this Zimbabwe side at home which shows they have declined a bit.
Test cricket needs a strong BD team and as far as I see BD are the only nation capable of sustaining test cricket among the nations outside of top 6 but with these kind of results im afraid it doesn't augur well.

It goes back to what we we've been saying - just a matter of a time when Afghanistan surpasses them in all 3 formats.
They're already a superior T20I unit. I expect by 2023 WC they will go past them in the ODIs and at some point in the early to mid 2020s they will climb above them in tests as well.

There was not a single umpire's call decision against Bangladesh in any of the innings. They were pathetic in their batting, hence the result. Also, I guess Op meant to say BD have become a powermouse. Just a typo from his end.

Obviously not a powerhouse. However, they do raise their game in ODI tournaments. I saw a recent interview of Shakib, and he seemed optimistic about next year's World Cup.
Realistically, if BD is to achieve anything in Cricket, the next world cup is pretty much it with it's core players of Tamim, Shakib, Mushy, Mahmudullah closing in on their retirement.
