Shakib Al Hasan gave a big statement
After Bangladesh’s defeat against India, Shakib Al Hasan told reporters – As a batting unit, we are short of runs. We scored 140 runs in the last game, and today we scored 146 runs. We should have performed better today because we had a target in front of us.
We couldn’t even show people that we were trying to chase the target today. I don’t think the team’s batting was confident, this is one area we have lacked throughout the World Cup.
Shakib further said- You have to play your best game against teams like India and Australia. I think we lack skill and power. We could not even do the basic work to put pressure on the opposing team. We are capable of scoring big runs, and played well on the last two wickets.
