I honestly dont see anything wrong with this. If Bangladesh start some feirce training now they might be able to get 180-210 in the One days. I dont think they will win anything but its a good chance to show they can put up a fight.
Bangladesh has the ability to beat any team any day but the problem with them is that they are very inconsistent. they play like street cricketers. they dont have much techniques. i wonder what all the coaches have taught them in the past years...

lol..Ralphy Have you watched them playing?
I am watching them from past two years and know most people can't do that. I haver never denied that there is a lack of talent but their approach is just too weak for game like cricket.
Look at some of their moves, after being Captain Ashraful has not played a single Match winning innings. They have dropped Mortaza for first two ODIS against Pakistan in last series.
Trust me, their X Captain H Basar had the capacity to score Test 100 and He was really good.I don't see any reason why they have made that stupid change?
Ok now Regarding to Financial problem, for Country like Bangladesh it is too much of money which they are wasting after cricket now. Ya I have used word wasting because I don't see them learning.
Do they need to even learn?
Look at Saquib ul Hasan and T Iqbal. These are the players which would have done better if they would have played from any other team.
I still appreciate Bangladesh playing to Ireland or Kenya. By that they might learn something.
They are down to the table and trying to rise up but If you play with team which is top on the table will only makes you realize that you should not play.
This might be first Cricket series after long time which I am not going to follow.

All they need is for Tamim and Ashraful to click. That's it, and they can beat even Australia.
As if Tamim and Ashraful are going to pick up 20 wickets ?
Its tough for Bangla to beat Aus in Aus.And they really need to imprive the standard of their cricket.9 years since they got the Test Status,still not a single win against any major Test Team.[bar Zimbabve]

bangladesh bowling is really crap they could have beaten pakistan in the first tri series match easily if they could restrict pakistan to 190-210.. there was lots of pressure on the batsman and were unable to make it and this was also the reason for most of the losses bangladesh faced after world cup... shahadat hossain must be dropped immediately, farhad reza sucks at bowling too so i think bangladesh need to do something about it

With Bangladesh already playing cricket in Australia, it seems this is well overdue for a bump.

That's Central Standard Time, GMT +9:30 and yeah, the ODIs are only showing on Fox Sports.
What's interesting here is that the bulk of this tour will be in matches against the Australian Institute of Sport's Centre Of Excellence team, so unlike many tours, the team that faces Australia should have a better idea of conditions than the hosts. It will also be a much better contest for comparison, given the average age of the Bangladesh squad is under 22, only fractionally older than the current AIS squad. The COE team will be keen to impress, with players like Theo Doropoulos, Moises Henriques, David Warner and Steve O'Keefe genuinely in the realm of being handy one-day all-rounders.
There will also be one game against the Northern Territory Chief Minister's XI (TBA). Doropolous wrote in his Tour Diary that the AIS scholarship concludes with an apparently unlisted game against Australia (for which the toss has already been decided) and proper match coverage remains unlikely.
If you're still reading... Bangladesh in brief.
Aftab Ahmed has still not returned and Bangladesh are also going in with the late withdrawal of Shahriah Nafees, who, like the returning Shakib Al Hasan, is taking time out to study. Dhiman Ghosh is in the squad to cover the injured Musfiquir Rahim's spot as keeper. Runs are starting to come from some of the batsmen more regularly, but some of the less consistent players are capable of winning matches. Nazimuddin was dropped from the side originally after poor form in Pakistan, but became a late addition and will be hoping to take his chance. They welcome back Shakib Al Hasan, who has a lot of work to do. He is now a key middle order batsman and slow bowler. Bowling will be very reliant on the likes of Razzak and they will be hoping to have a fully fit Mashrafe Mortaza. If Dolar Mahmud plays, expect turbopuns, because he can be very, very expensive; although it seems with a bit of swing he can be good value.

Australia make minimum changes. Hayden and Haddin return, but with Ponting still not ready, Clarke remains captain. No changes means still no spin and an increasingly curious situation in coming months.
