Asia Cup: Win Against India Is Huge For Bangladesh Ahead Of The World Cup, Says Chandika Hathurusingha
ODI World Cup: While being delighted over the depth in the squad, Bangladesh head coach Chandika Hathurusingha said winning over India by six runs to end their Asia Cup campaign on a high was huge for his team ahead of next month’s Men’s ODI World Cup.
After captain Shakib Al Hasan and Towhid Hridoy hit fifties before the lower-order batters stepped up by making 87 runs collectively in carrying Bangladesh to 265/8, Tanzim Hasan Sakib took 2/32 on debut while Mustafizur Rahman took three wickets before the four-man spin attack relied on turn and bounce from the pitch to bowl out India for 259.
