I fear the worst...
I fear the worst after this series is over - unless BD can at least conjure a draw in the next test.
I'm too scared to even mention what it is I'm afraid of (although many of you are guessing right...)

I honestly think that's what we need (assuming you're talking about revoking our test status). It would be humiliating for us, but just as sitting out of a few series can make a batsman come good again, maybe this will do the same for our team. We should go back, pay our dues again, and really earn our right to play test cricket.

Test status ?
ICC will not touch it. Be sure.
Look at Zimbabwe. They have recovered now and are playing well against india.

i think Tigers would do pretty good in 2nd Test. As for 1st test I'd like to forget, but I hope players would keep their performance in mind and would try to do better...

nothing to fear about...it's fact and you have to except the reality that we will loose it within three days. Our pathetic players neither know what they should do nor they realize that they are far behind from international test cricketers. It's their mental block, you can't change it. Atleast these generation players of Bashar, Pilot could not be change, and the new ones like Ash, Aftab, two Nafees', also becoming like the earlier ones. So, there is no sign of improvement comparing to the like of akrams, then Bashar's generation. All we are producing is bunch of "talents" who just flourishes when they get picked for the squad but forget that it takes more hard work to retain that place. As long as our so called "shonar chele" ra realize that you should never have higher expectations. Our cricket board, politicians, organizers don't understand this fact, and they don't do anything so far. So, we will always embrace defeats, huge defeats.

One important lesson to learn for us fans is that when BD look good and on the up, they are guaranteed to come crashing down sooner rather than later.

Rana will be back.
They are putting TI away and getting in NI.
Those TI/NI switches will not work unless top batsmen gets some runs like a century or at least 80+.
I mean HB, MA, KM, MR and may be Aftab.
