Meanwhile, the six-run defeat against Scotland left the Bangladesh skipper Mahmudullah frustrated and disappointed. The captain blamed the batting unit for not living up to their reputation. Bangladesh had to chase 141 runs in 20 overs but the team ended up with just 134 runs.

Speaking about the loss in the press conference, Mahmudullah added, “I am very much frustrated. Our batting is a concern. We have to bat better. We have to play aggressive cricket, regardless of the situation. We have a deep batting line-up, with Mohammad Saifuddin at No. 9. We may need to think over some changes tomorrow.”

“We didn’t deliberately bat slowly. We couldn’t hit those boundaries. We have to bat better next time. A lot of things will come up since we lost the game. I think we didn’t play well today, but we are a good T20 team. We have the capability. When we play our best cricket, we can win games,” the skipper concluded.
