Glimpses shown but concerns remain
It was proved yet again that early momentum helps Bangladesh as a decent opening stand on Monday prevented any batting mishaps for the Tigers in their Super 12 clash against the Netherlands, which they won by nine runs at the Bellerive Oval in Hobart to kick off their T20 World Cup campaign.
A realisation on pace unit that strikes a chord
Taskin Ahmed’s first two deliveries hit a length and while the first went away from the left-handed Vikramjit Singh, the second went away just slightly off the deck from the right-handed Bas de Leede and both deliveries made the batters play and got the nick off the bats. Most importantly, both catches were taken, with Yasir Ali diving forward to take a low catch at slips and wicketkeeper Nurul Hasan diving to his right to take the next one as Netherlands were down to two in two deliveries in chase of 144 made by Bangladesh. The tone had been set, and the fielders had their tails up as Bangladesh made up for any lacking with the bat in the first innings.
