Can't ask for more: Bangladesh captain Mashrafe


Mirpur, April 25 (IANS): Delighted at his side’s total domination of Pakistan in the One-Day Internationals (ODI) and the only Twenty20 International, Bangladesh captain Mashrafe Bin Mortaza feels asking for more is difficult.

Bangladesh followed up their 3-0 ODI sweep with a thumping seven-wicket win in the lone T20I at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium here on Friday. It was Bangladesh’s first T20I win against Pakistan after seven previous attempts, reports bdnews24.com.

“More cannot be asked from a team. We have won playing well in all the matches. Playing better than this is not possible. We must improve more and fix our mistakes,” Mashrafe said, adding that it was important to maintain the winning momentum before the Tests.

“If we had lost, issues would’ve been raised. We have won it. We have proved we can win against the best team too. More importantly, we have proved we are consistent.”

The skipper, however, warned his teammates that one T20I win will not change things much. If the players continue to work on their mistakes, Bangladesh will be a force to reckon with.

“We have once lost to Hong Kong. We have to improve a lot more (in T20 cricket).”

The two Asian countries will play two Test matches in Khulna (April 28-May 2) and Mirpur (May 6-10).
