    In the second T20I match between Bangladesh and Afghanistan, the Bangladesh team won the toss and decided to bowl first. The opening pair of Afghanistan batted more responsibly. However, the bowling line of Bangladesh has always been strong. They tried to perform at their best against Afghanistan as well. And they were able to restrict Afghanistan to only 147 runs in the stipulated 20 overs. Batting against the target of 148 runs given by Afghanistan, Bangladesh lost some wickets in the beginning and felt some pressure. Shamim Hossain and Nurul Hasan finished the game very nicely. If we notice, in the first T20I match, Nurul Hasan finished the game by batting very responsibly. The Bangladesh team is performing quite well against Afghanistan. With the victory of today's match, the Bangladesh team won the T20 series. Congratulations to the Bangladesh team.
    I just imagine, if Bangladesh had a strong batting lineup like India or Australia with this strong bowling lineup! Would they have won any international title? It is often said that Bangladesh's bowling unit remains neglected by the world because of their batters. How reasonable is this?

    I would like to give a positive answer to this. We have seen Bangladesh's strong bowling attack in the Asia Cup as well where even strong teams like India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka could not make any big collections. We have even seen Bangladesh's strong bowling lineup in the last T20 World Cup. Taskin and Mustafiz are experienced bowlers, along with them are young talented bowlers like Tanjim Shakib, Shariful Islam and Rishad Hossain, and even Sheikh Mehedi is unique.

    However, Bangladesh performed well in the second T20 against Afghanistan and achieved the desired victory. Chasing a target of just 148 runs, I expected a better batting performance from Bangladesh. However, Afghanistan's strong bowling lineup did not allow them to do so.
    We can understand how helpless Bangladesh's bowling line is against the strong India and Australia when we play against them. However, it must be admitted that Bangladesh's bowlers performed well compared to Bangladesh's batting line, but Bangladesh's bowlers cannot give much advantage against a strong team. Even then, Bangladesh's batsmen should perform responsibly. If they perform responsibly, it will have a very positive impact on the team. Bangladesh's bowlers undoubtedly bowled well in the Asia Cup. They attacked every opponent from the start. If Bangladesh's batting line was stronger, Bangladesh could definitely have played in the Asia Cup final. The last match against Pakistan was lost only because of bad batting. Of course, there will be expectations from the Bangladeshi team so that they improve Bangladesh's batting line. Yesterday's match was undoubtedly a good performance against Afghanistan and the Tigers secured the series by winning the second T20 match.
