Shakib Al Hasan seeks to fix batting concerns after 'reality check' ahead of World Cup

Bangladesh captain defended playing Mohammad Naim in all four matches, even as he was pleased with youngster Towhid Hridoy

Bangladesh captain Shakib Al Hasan said that injuries and tactics forced them to tinker with their playing XIs in the Asia Cup, and that they were not experimenting just for the sake of it. They were expected to try out a few combinations ahead of the World Cup next month, but it all went awry as Bangladesh now stare at an exit from the Super Four stage of the tournament after two defeats in as many games - this time a 21-run loss against Sri Lanka in Colombo.

Shakib said they sent Mehidy Hasan Miraz to open against Afghanistan and Sri Lanka mainly because of his ability to handle mystery spinners, a move which was justified after Mehidy struck his second ODI hundred against Afghanistan. However, Shakib felt that Mehidy could give the team some balance batting rather at No. 7, given that Bangladesh are struggling with a long tail.

It seems they have added a reserve day for India vs Pakistan match as well.

Rather very inconsistent rule.

DO ALL ASIA CUP 2023 SUPER 4 MATCHES HAVE RESERVE DAYS?

No, they do not. In a rather questionable move, the reserve day was added just to the India vs Pakistan fixture.

The remaining Super 4 games will be termed ‘No Result’ in case play is not possible on the original match day.

Very few know the art of survival better than the Asia Cup. It's endured through boycotts by both India and Pakistan, apathy from administrators, fluctuating fandom, seasonal revision of trophies, and even a raging pandemic.

Furthermore, it hasn't shied away from switching formats just so as to stay relevant.

After all, it's the only tournament outside ICC events where the two teams meet, and therefore, the organizers have left no stone unturned to ensure that this big match isn't washed out like the last one. In a helter-skelter, unpopular move in view of bad forecast, a reserve day has been brought in place to save the fixture - a luxury extended to no other fixture but the final. Well, you really are one of a kind, Asia Cup.
