We need to improve our shot-selection, admits Mushfiqur Rahim – Cricket News Update
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/West-Indies-c760 at home and feels that his batsmen need to improve their shot-selection if they want to survive at the ultimate stage of the game.
The http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Bengal-c771 Tigers have been whitewashed by the Caribbean men in the two-match series at Mirpur and Khulna, with the home team’s batsmen doing well on occasions but failing to deliver the goods consistently, which is a prerequisite to
success in the longer version of the sport.
At one stage in the Khulna Test, Bangladesh had lost eight wickets for just 193 runs in their first innings, before http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Abul-Hasan-c41857, a tail-ender, smashed a hundred on debut to avoid embarrassment for the hosts. In the second innings, apart
from http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Bangladesh-c747 batsmen were able to cope with the pressure and were bowled out for just 287 runs on a flat track as a result.
Some of the sporting pundits have slammed the Bangladesh batsmen for their lacklustre approach and the tendency to play too many rash strokes.
The captain feels that there is nothing wrong in being aggressive but selecting the right shot is imperative to be successful against the world’s best bowlers. The wicketkeeper wants his batsmen to learn from http://www.senore.com/Cricket/S-Chanderpaul-c2390,
who scored two big hundreds in the series.
“We should play natural cricket depending on the situation. Chanderpaul also plays the lofted shot but when he does that, there is little risk. The team, including myself, have to learn from these things, when to play low-risk and high-risk
shots. We have to understand that the team comes first, and not individuals,” said the Bangladesh captain.
He further added that most of the Bangladesh batsmen threw away their wickets at crucial junctures of the game.
Mushfiqur added in disappointment, “All the wickets that fall in a Test match are not entirely down to the bowlers' credit. Batsmen are at fault too. But in our case, the batsmen gift them the wickets regularly without the bowlers earning
it, that's the most terrible thing.”
