‘We are still strong’

The Bangladesh team were scheduled to board a flight for Nagpur this morning but since their flight was delayed, the team will leave their hotel a little later in the afternoon today. Shafiul Islam spoke in front of the media present and reiterated that the Tigers still feel strong despite the setback of losing the second T20I by eight wickets in Rajkot.

It was another sunny day here at Rajkot and some of the players and coaching staff got onboard the team bus from their hotel before finding out that the flight was delayed. Thus, the players and coaches returned to the hotel once more.

"If we don't repeat the mistakes of the last match, ofcourse we can win the series," pace bowler Shafiul Islam told the media present at the team hotel.

"We made a few mistakes with the bat and ball and we have to work on those departments. Need to overcome our lacking in those department. There is no reason to be morally down because of how Rohit Sharma played. I feel that he had a very good day.

The fast bowler mentioned that the team are still looking to comeback from the defeat in Rajkot. "We are still strong. We still have an opportunity.

"Obviously we are disappointed since we could have clinched the series if we played well," he reiterated.

The Bangladesh team think-tank will now move to Nagpur and hope to find the answers of what went wrong in the second T20I at Rajkot and how to rectify those errors.
