USA vs BAN: Bangladesh also lost to Pakistan. This statement was made by Shakib Al Hasan, the number one all-rounder in the ICC rankings. Shakib said this when Bangladesh lost the first T20 match against America. Shakib felt that America got this victory not due to their game but due to luck, but when the team lost the second T20 match also by 6 runs, Shakib's pride was shattered. The entire Bangladeshi team had to face shame before the T20 World Cup to be held on American soil.
In the second match of the three-match T20 series, America defeated Bangladesh 2-0 and is now undefeated in the series. In this match against Bangladesh, America batted first and scored 144 runs for 6 wickets. In reply, the Bangladeshi team scored 138 runs in 19.3 overs. In this way, America put Bangladesh in an embarrassing situation by winning two consecutive T20 matches.
7 batsmen could not even reach double figures
Sourav Netravalkar and Ali Khan, who came to defend 144 runs for America, bowled brilliantly. Sourav took 2 wickets for just 15 runs in three overs. Apart from this, Ali Khan took three wickets. Ali Khan conceded 25 runs in 3.3 overs. Along with these two, Shedley van Schalkwyk got two wickets, Jagdeep Singh and Corey Anderson got one wicket each. In Bangladesh's innings, there were a total of 7 batsmen who could not even reach the double digit figure.
Shakib Al Hasan was in high spirits before the series
Bangladesh's veteran all-rounder is not happy before the 3-match T20 series against the USA. He believed that the T20 series against teams like the USA and Ireland cannot be used as preparation for the World Cup, but when the Bangladesh team came on the field, his arrogance vanished against a team like the USA.
Captain Monk performed brilliantly for America in the match
Captain Monak Patel batted brilliantly in the second T20 match against Bangladesh. Monak played a strong innings of 42 runs in 38 balls in which he hit four fours and a six. Apart from this, Aaron Jones contributed 35 runs and Steve Taylor also contributed 31 runs. Apart from these two, Corey Anderson also played an innings of 11 runs.
