Trying something different with Miraz and Shabbir at the top of the order and the top 3 actively trying to hit the ball hard has been the first innovative thing they've done for a long time. I'd keep Mahmudullah a bit longer maybe but Mushfiq needs to go. Afif needs to bat in the top 4, it's ridiculous having a quality player coming in at 5 or 6 after four other spuds have failed.Massive changes needed in t20 and should have been years ago- Mushfiq and Mahmudullah got to go. Shakib needs to be stripped off captaincy. Afif or Liton to be captain and we need Liton Das, Yasir Rabbi to bat up the order when they come. Parvez Emon and Sohan should get in. EbaGoat should not be playing t20s. Just massively disappointed that we haven’t tried enough new players in t20s atleast and stuck with old guys and not enough time too before t20 WC.
I think it was a great score. Terrible fielding and extras lost the match for the bangers IMOFWIW, 183 was about 45 more than I thought we'd get so this has been a pretty positive performance.

Agree that Sohan should be in. He's not a power hitter but his placement is fantastic and he's very good at moving around the crease and manufacturing shots. He's also one of the actual best wicket keepers in the world and can change games with the gloves.
I was hoping Anamul would have a late career revival where he makes the most of his talent but he has absolutely lost the mental battle every time he's been out there. I'd like to see them persist with this Sabbir experiment in T20s. Obviously a terrible human being, but he can hit the ball hard and handle high pace and anyone else we experiment with probably can't.
I don't mind the EbaGOAT experiment either. We probably could have predicted that his terrible radar would cost him but we've also had a glimpse of what he can do with his pace on a flat, hard wicket. I wouldn't mind seeing a bit more of him in these sorts of conditions.
Including several no balls, plus dropping catches.You can't win a game if you give away 12 runs in extras.
@trundler you are banned.Rahim & Riyad have to go for BD... Enough is enough. I really liked how Ebadot bowled. Maybe he will come more handy in Australia.
SL need Chameera & Kumara both. Trundlers have no place in Australia.
