All people knowing Bangladesh team reach to the the quarterfinals of the global showcase event. The string of losses they suffered at their own backyard seemingly put paid to their prospects in the World Cup in totally different conditions in Australia and New Zealand. Mashrafe has led from the front taking wickets in key moments while Rubel took the match away from England with twin double-strikes.
The strapping pacer credited his quicks and was confident that Bangladesh would progress further in the competition if the duo utilised their full potential.
The troika caught media attention in the Tigers’ opener against Afghanistan. Mashrafe had nothing to prove but they showed how good they were as a unit.
Bangladesh bowling is reliant on spin and therefore, no-one goes gaga over them.
There were instances where Bangladesh had fielded only one pacer. Sometimes they did not even get a full 10-over quota to bowl. They also gave co-hosts New Zealand a run for their money in the last pool fixture.
They seemed to have learned a lot on their way out of the bad times and it has toughened them.
The U-turn brought about changes in the players’ temperament as well. The team performance is not simply based on talisman Shakib Al Hasan, Mushfiq or Tamim Iqbal.
Resurgence of classy Mahmudullah Riyad and new additions like Sabbir Rahman, Soumya Sarkar and Taskin Ahmed have given them new arsenals to fight with.
Mashrafe leads from the front in the bowling department with Rubel Hossain and young Taskin as his backup, who are capable of testing any batting lineup.
