...Presentation time...
Since winning the first two games of the ODI series, England nose-dive and there is so much to rethink for the reigning World champions. Jos Buttler will be really disappointed as they could have at least avoided the whitewash.
The series loss had a morale effect on England and it was seen in their fielding. They though did well with the ball but it was their batting yet again that didn't help. Bangladesh have so much to take from this series. The way they batted, fielded and bowled, this will give them the utmost confidence for the upcoming series. Bangladesh looked 10-15 runs short at the start and till the halfway stage but the impact came later on as they defended the score brilliantly in the second phase. Litton Das was star with the bat and it was a collective performance with the ball.
Let me remind you, England were 100 for 1 at one stage and in full control of the game with Dawid Malan and Jos Buttler cruising through. However, Dawid Malan got out after his fifty but we feel the game turned when Jos Buttler fell in the very next delivery. That just shattered the batting line up with wickets falling one after the other. England do have a long tail but throughout this series, they have failed to create an impact.
It felt like these two were playing with the series still alive, it was that kind of game but credit to Hasan Mahmud for keeping his nerves. A series that every Bangladeshi will live in the upcoming years. They have created history.
