The graph of Bangladesh's performance in T20 is gradually going down. The Tigers abandoned their dream of reaching the semi-finals after losing a match against Afghanistan on the big stage of the World Cup. Bangladesh's fortunes have not changed much even after returning to the T20 format after a long time. India lost by a huge margin of 7 wickets in the first match of the bilateral series.

calm down

In the first match of the series in Gwalior, the failure of both the batting and bowling units of Bangladesh was visible. Half of the team's batsmen returned to the dressing room before 50 runs with the bat. Bangladesh scored 71 runs in the powerplay with the ball in hand. It can be clear from here how much India dominated Bangladesh.

However, despite such a miserable performance, Bangladesh team captain Nazmul Hossain Shanto is reluctant to call himself such a bad team. He believes that Bangladesh is a better team, 'too bad I won't say that either. I think we are a better team than that. We are not performing well in this version since last long time. But I don't believe we are such a bad team.'

Talking about their batting approach, Shanto said, 'For the approach I mentioned, a good start in batting is important. The beginning will be good, the work of the rest becomes easy. Those who are playing well there, they have to take responsibility.

The Bangladesh captain, however, admitted that his entire team was shrouded in failure. Emphasized on playing good shots, 'We all failed together. There will be an aggressive mindset, but you have to understand when to play a shot. Don't want to change this approach now. We have to play like this, but we have to select good shots.'
