Bangladesh reached the final of the T20I series at home playing against  Zimbabwe and Afghanistan, but coach Russell Domingo is still not happy with the performance of his team. However, the final was washed out due to rain and the trophy has been shared.

“We haven’t played the perfect game yet,” Domingo said. “We have been good in certain areas and average in certain areas. We are still trying to find the perfect game.”

“We haven’t got to the last five or six overs with only two or three wickets down,” he said. “We lose too many wickets in the first ten overs. We have to get to the 15th over with two wickets down, maybe, so that we have a platform for the last five overs,” he again said.

However, Bangladesh did well in the pace department. Pacers Mohammad Saifuddin took seven wickets while Shafiul Islam has taken four scalps.

“It is an area we can exploit if there’s more pace and bounce. My thinking is where we are going to play the World Cup in a year’s time. We are playing in Australia, and I can’t see us playing one or two seamers there. We have to play at least three or four fast bowlers in Australia,” Russell Domingo said.

“Winning now is important but we also have to think of what is in the best interest of the team going forward. It is a fine line to balance it. It is always good to have a fast-bowling attack, but I understand the culture and the fact that the strength of the team lies in spin bowlers. I am trying to find the balance as a coach,” he concluded.
