Bangladesh lost all the 4 matches they played in the Trilateral T20I in New Zealand. Yesterday they lost the match against Pakistan by 7 wickets. Batting first, Bangladesh scored 173 runs for the loss of 6 wickets in 20 overs. Liton Das scored 69 and captain Shakib Al Hasan scored 68 runs. Pakistan won by scoring 177 runs for the loss of 3 wickets in 19.5 overs.
Former Tamil Nadu player S. who is the consultant of the Bangladesh team. Shriram said about these failures:-
Everything must come together for the Bangladesh team to win. We had two chances against Pakistan. In the first game we had to score 100 runs in the last 10 overs. Had to defend 100 runs in this game. We lost both games by narrow margins.
These are all things we need to learn. The best team is the one that scores 10 runs per over in the latter half, or defends itself without conceding 10 runs per over. We will select the team to play in the World Cup in two days. “We know what we want,” he said.
This is what he said.
