It is always advisable to play aggressive cricket in T20 cricket. Not only this, all the teams also try to score big against the opposing team in this format and win the match. In a 20 over game, there are six overs of power play in which there are only two players outside the 30 yard circle.

The batting team wants to utilize these 6 overs well and look to score big against the opposition team. However, the Bangladesh team has failed to do so in the T20 format for some time. Let us tell you, in the first T20 match played on May 21, USA defeated Bangladesh by five wickets at home. Even in this match, Bangladesh players failed to leave their mark.

Against USA, Bangladesh team had scored 34 runs in the first four overs without losing any wicket. However, after this they scored only three runs in two powerplay overs and lost both their openers. Bangladesh’s score was 2 wickets for 37 runs in 6 overs. Not only this, before this the team had played a T20 series against Zimbabwe in which Bangladesh had won 4-1. Bangladesh’s score in this series was 35/1, 41/1, 42/2, 57/0, 33/3 in the first 6 overs. Bangladesh captain Nazmul Hasan Shanto has given a big statement regarding the performance of his team.

We are doing a lot wrong in this place: Nazmul Hasan Shanto

Nazmul Hasan Shanto told the reporter, ‘We are doing wrong in this area and we are confident that the team will make a great comeback in the coming times. I don’t think there should be any concern because all the batsmen are working on their craft and we know very well that it is very important for the top order to play well and for everyone in the batting unit to do their job well. It is very important. All the batsmen are trying to do the same.

Let us tell you, Bangladesh has included Soumya Sarkar in the team in place of in-form player Tanzid Tamim, who had performed very well against Zimbabwe. Regarding this, Nazmul Hasan Shanto further said, ‘We did not drop Tanzid Tamim. I think our plan was to rotate the three opening batsmen and that is why we gave him rest. This was also because Soumya Sarkar could not play many matches due to injury and we planned to give rest to Tamim.’
