Champions Trophy: Jaffer Slams Bangladesh's Seniors For Failing To Perform After Group Stage Exit
Skipper Najmul Hossain Shanto: Former India cricketer Wasim Jaffer criticised Bangladesh's senior players for their repeated failures in ICC events, stating that they once again crumbled under pressure in their five-wicket loss to New Zealand in the Champions Trophy in Rawalpindi.
Bangladesh's latest exit was marked by an all-too-familiar pattern: a batting collapse, a below-par total. Despite a decent bowling effort, Bangladesh’s failure to post a competitive score saw them knocked out of the tournament with back-to-back defeats.
In what was effectively a knockout match against New Zealand, Bangladesh stumbled to 236 for 9 in their 50 overs, a total Jaffer believed was at least "50 to 60 runs short" on a Rawalpindi surface that had little for the bowlers.
