Might be coincidence that a disproportionate number of BAME players were released from county contracts last year. In any case it’s not a good look.
Good to speak to Feroze Khushi and Arafat Bhuiyan about their experiences.

Always found it odd how hardly any Bangladesh internationals have played county cricket.
Surely one or two counties should be asking about Nahid Rana….Bangladesh’s next Test series isn’t until June ‘25.

Stat: in Bangladesh’s last bowling innings v South Africa they saw 3 players get maiden hundreds and 1 player get a maiden 50.
So far in this innings they have seen Greaves get his maiden 50. So bat against Bangladesh if you want to get your Test career started.
