What Bangladesh cricket players need today is boost their stamina and patience, especially when they play cricket in the Test arena. The recently concluded series with Sri Lanka is a burning example. It is only due to the lack of stamina and patience that the Bangladeshi batsmen just threw their wickets away amateurishly. We all know that playing cricket for five days at a stretch is extremely tiring and it takes a toll on the psychology of a player as well. However, if players of other countries can do it, we can do it too. All we need is proper training and physical fitness. As for the limited over matches, there also our boys started well but could not hold it for long due to lack of concentration and consistency. It is not that we don't have good players but what we lack is proper training and team spirit. It may serve as a sermon for a player that when he is on the field, he must remember one thing which is that one silly mistake can cost his precise wicket. Therefore, it is the duty of the coaches to groom our young talented boys to the correct way of playing cricket, teach them the tricks of the game, tune them to the modern techniques of batting, bowling, fielding etc. I am sure our young Tigers will get on to the proper track of cricket very soon.
