Where is BD in TT?
The Liebherr 2017 World Table Tennis Championships will be held from 29 May to 5 June in Düsseldorf, Germany. The World Table Tennis Championships is the biggest and most prestigious table tennis event in the world, with all the world’s best table tennis players competing for history.
The five events are Men’s single and doubles, Women’s single and doubles, and Mixed doubles. China won four gold medals while a Chinese and South Korean pair captured mixed double title.
China have been dominating the Table Tennis World for ages and they will do it again, but where is Bangladesh? Can our Table Tennis Federation give the details?

Mustafiz needs some space
Any reference to Bangladesh cricket team’s pace bowler Muftafizur Rahman, it reminds me of Roy Gilchrist who played 13 Tests only for the West Indies in the 1950s and then was retired, the reason whereof is still in dark though many critics say that the then captain Alexandar had his hand behind Gilchrist’ brief career.
He captured 57 wickets in Tests and 167 in first class cricket at an average of 26.68 and 26.00 runs. World’s ever best cricketer Gary Sobers said, Ah! He is the most dangerous cricketer I ever played with.
Contrarily, I do not want to give the figures of Mustafiz in all the three versions of the discipline, but what I think that his inclusion in the Test series was an conspiracy to end his career as quick as possible and it has been finally translated. He played just one match in the underway IPL for Hyderabad and his performance was the result of his aimless future, which he translated in his lone match in India. His first ball flew above the head of the striking batsman and the wicketkeeper beyond the boundary. He gave away 34 runs in 2.3 overs, ringing his own devastation. Still we think there is time for correction, which Mustafiz should utilize.
