Justifying inclusion?

Bangladesh tasted a series victory for the first time in thweir fledgling test career, albeit against a weak Zimbabwe side. It's still a good thing for them. A victory is a confidence booster. They may begin to believe in themselves. Also, this might generate more interest and money might pur into the board coffers a little more... generating infrastructure improvements. All good. Let's hope it does spark off a start for them. More teams in the fray - always a good thing! Especially in an international sport as elitist as cricket.

On the flip side, Zimbabwe.. once on the brink of a truly competitive side... ahs slipped. Sure, they've had more than their share of troubles... with bans, segregation, fundamental disagreements and shattering of their team . It's still sad to see that a team, that once pushed the big powers real had to beat them... are now searching to see how they lost to B'desh.
