Afghanistan (AFG) is set to face Bangladesh (BAN) in the 52nd game of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024. The match is scheduled for 25th June 2024 at 06:00 AM IST, taking place at the Arnos Vale Ground, Arnos Vale, St Vincent.
Former India cricketer Virender Sehwag criticised Bangladesh all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan's approach in the 197-run chase against India as they suffered a 50-run defeat in the T20 World Cup Super Eight clash on Saturday. After being asked to bat first, Hardik Pandya hammered an unbeaten 50 off 27 balls studded with four fours and three sixes while Virat Kohli scored 37 to guide India to 196/5 in 20 overs. In response, Bangladesh faltered in the middle overs after a decent start as they lost wickets at regular intervals and failed to get over the line. Shakib departed after scoring 11 off seven balls while trying to hit Kuldeep Yadav to a boundary.
The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) on Sunday announced that the national side will play seven red-ball games to prepare for a 'gruelling Test schedule' and to shift focus from T20Is to the World Test Championship (WTC), as per ESPNcricinfo. Bangladesh will play Test series against South Africa, West Indies, Pakistan and India in their 2023-25 WTC cycle. The Test players will feature in the three four-day games in Chattogram next month while the home contests will be followed by two four-day matches against Pakistan A in Darwin from July 19 to 29. The Bangladesh A team will travel to Pakistan to play two four-day matches in August. In addition, New Zealand A plans to visit Bangladesh in August or September.
Bangladesh's seasoned all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan became the first player to take 50 wickets in the T20 World Cup. On a night when Bangladesh were outplayed in all facets of the game by their neighbours, India, Shakib managed to etch his name in the history books. Shakib was expensive in his three-over spell, giving away 37 runs at an economy of 12.30. His sole wicket in the game was of Indian skipper Rohit Sharma. The 37-year-old lured Rohit to slog the ball away. He pulled out a thick outside edge, and the ball landed safely in the hands of Jaker Ali.
Veteran Bangladesh all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan hit out at the Tigers' lack of "fight" after a 50-run rout by India effectively ended their T20 World Cup dreams. Saturday's mauling was Bangladesh's second defeat in the Super Eights after an opening loss to Australia. "We were always thinking that we came to do something good and we will do it," said former skipper Shakib who was playing in his 128th T20 international. "But if you look at the result or the performance on the ground, actually we couldn't show any fight in that way. It's disappointing."
India continued their winning momentum in the ongoing T20 World Cup as they defeated Bangladesh in a Super 8 match on Saturday. Asked to bat first, India posted a whopping total of 196/5 with vice-captain Hardik Pandya smashing a half-century. Later, Kuldeep Yadav's three-wicket haul and the contributions from other bowlers helped Rohit Sharma and Co restrict Bangladesh to 146/8 and claim a win by 50 runs. As India put up a dominating show, skipper Rohit Sharma looked a bit stress-free during Bangladesh's chase and ended up giving a hilarious moment to his fans.
