Bangladesh has entered the Super Eight of the T20 World Cup by winning three of the four matches. It can be said that the bowlers are on their shoulders. Bangladesh batsmen could not do anything great in any match.
The top order has failed regularly. Captain Nazmul Hossain Shanto, Liton Dasder have no runs with the bat. Even today, Bangladesh was bowled out for just 106 runs against Nepal. The bowlers won this match by 21 runs.
Captain Shanto is quite happy with the team’s bowling. But not about batting. Although the hope of the Bangladesh captain, the performance of the batters will be fixed in the next round i.e. Super Eight.
“I am very happy with the way we played in this round,” Shanto said at the post-match award ceremony. We will want to continue this bowling performance, but not this batting. Hopefully our batting will be fine in the next round.’
The Bangladesh captain said that they had the confidence to win even with a small capital. He said, ‘We didn’t score too many runs, but we knew if we could take wickets in the beginning we could defend. That’s what we told the bowlers. The boys were also very good at fielding.’
“Momentum is very important in T20,” Shanto said, adding that going to the Super Eight with three consecutive wins will give him extra confidence. We have a plan for the next round, we want to show its application on the field.
