Each bowler for Bangladesh let up more than 11 runs per over. In addition to their poor bowling, the Bangla Tigers frequently misfielded and missed some important opportunities in the field. Towhid Hridoy, a hitter for Bangladesh, recognised that the team needed to adjust to Hyderabad’s pitches and that they were deficient in every area.
Bangladesh was left reeling by India’s merciless batting in the third Twenty20 International on October 12 at Hyderabad’s Uppal Stadium. Sanju Samson and Suryakumar Yadav’s blitzkrieg was too much for the visitors to handle, as they stitched a 173-run stand for the second wicket in just 70 balls. India consequently scored 297 runs, the most of any Test-playing country in Twenty20 Internationals.
“We were deficient in every area. There were days when the bowling was poor and the batting was good, and vice versa. We don’t typically play on such wickets. I’m not trying to justify anything, but we’ll improve the more we play on these wickets. In general, there is much space for improvement. This series has a lot to teach us. Hridoy stated, “Hopefully, we can learn from it,” as cited.
The majority of our players are unable to accurately read the wicket: Towhid Hridoy
Bangladesh lost their first wicket on the first ball after coming into bat. In the powerplay, they only scored 59 runs compared to India’s 82. However, the batsmen were unable to take advantage of the flat track, and Hridoy contended that by not playing on such wickets at home, they are less proficient on them. India won by a resounding 133 runs after Bangladesh was bowled out for 164.
“We’re not that far behind, in my opinion. As a side, we’re not this awful. Our ability to perform on flat wickets is more important. The majority of our players struggle to accurately assess the wicket. Mirpur is where we primarily play. The wicket varies daily in other locations, but if we play in Chattogram, we know what to expect. We will get better every day as long as we continue to play on excellent wickets.

It won’t occur right away. India may serve as a model for us in terms of how to play on flat wickets with careful preparation. We must make progress in every area,” he continued.
