Bangladesh coach Chandika Hathurusinghe expressed his incapability to handle whether the absence of Tamim Iqbal is affecting the Tigers’ underperforming top-order forward of their World Cup match towards India on Thursday.
Bangladesh’s battle in the batting division is fairly evident as they proceed to battle to place up aggressive scores towards prime groups in the World Cup.
During the pre-match press convention, Hathurusinghe admitted that they “haven’t put up complete batting performance, or to that matter, complete performance with the ball and bat so far.”
Under such circumstances, Tamim’s absence from the squad as soon as once more takes away the highlight as he has been one of many prime batters for Bangladesh in the ODI and has amassed 8,357 runs in 243 ODI outings.
Hathurusinghe was quizzed whether the staff felt the absence of the skilled batter in the squad to which he replied, “He is not here, so I can’t answer whether we are missing him or not. Unfortunately, he was not ready the time we were selecting. So obviously his record as a player is good, but the same thing is I don’t know whether we are missing him or not, because we have players that here we have trusting that they will do a job for us.”
Last month, Tamim hit out on the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) after being dropped from the 50-over World Cup squad resulting from damage considerations.
Shakib Al Hasan referred to as Tamim “childish” and criticized him for placing himself forward of the staff’s wants.
Shakib spoke about Tamim with out naming him and stated that he is not a staff man and simply taking part in for particular person information.
“You are not thinking about the team at all. People don’t understand these things. Why was the proposal given to him? It was for the team. What is wrong in that? You are a team man when you agree to such a proposal. Unless you are thinking along those lines, you are not a team man. You are playing for individual records, success, fame, and name. Not for the team,” Shakib stated as quoted by ESPNCricinfo.
