Najmul Hossain backs Mushfiqur and Mahmudullah despite failures in must-win game

Despite Mushfiqur Rahim and Mahmudullah's lackluster performance in the team's crucial Champions Trophy encounter against New Zealand, Bangladesh captain Najmul Hossain has defended the veteran players.

Following a five-wicket loss to New Zealand in their second group-stage encounter, Bangladesh, who had lost their initial match against India by six wickets, were eliminated from the competition.

Returning to the starting lineup following a calf muscle injury, Mahmudullah fell short of expectations, managing only four runs and Mushfiqur just two.

Bangladesh appeared poised to post a competitive total at 97/3, and it was up to the senior pair to play deep. But they were humiliated by their defeat, particularly when youthful Towhid Hridoy left the field while trying to take an aggressive stance against off-spinner Michael Bracewell.

Bracewell made Bangladesh pay dearly for their shot selection as he ripped through the middle order, taking 4 for 26.

Mushfiqur, who had hit 26*, 37*, 1, and 0 in his previous innings prior to the New Zealand match, lost while attempting to attack. Mushfiqur last achieved an ODI fifty in March 2024 against Sri Lanka. When Bracewell threw a delivery outside the off-stump, he attempted a long slog-sweep but was only able to find Rachin Ravindra at deep mid-wicket.

Mahmudullah, who had amassed four fifties in his previous four ODI innings, was then expected to keep the ship afloat. His departure, meanwhile, was as disappointing. William O'Rourke made a routine catch after he got a thick edge to short third man while sprinting down the wicket in an attempt to clear the ropes.

Many felt that the older players were automatically selected regardless of their form, therefore they were surprised when Soumya Sarkar was dropped to make room for Mahmudullah and the unproductive Mushfiqur. But Najmul didn't agree.

Najmul responded, "There is no automatic choice in this team," when asked if senior cricket players were seen as essential.

Riyad (Mahmudullah) bhai bats in the bottom middle order, whereas Soumya bats at the top. We would have had to frequently rearrange our batting order if Soumya had played. Since Riyad bhai batted well in his last four or five innings, it was essential that he play. He clarified that Riyad bhai was significant.

"And because Mushfiq bhai's keeping is so crucial, I wasn't concerned about his final five innings. His contributions to the team have been evident over the years. He may have struggled in the final three innings, but he can bounce back in the next game," he continued.

"I don't want to have a different opinion of the two seniors. We didn't play the game well as a team. Since they are seniors, it is not necessary to have really high expectations. As a batting group, we didn't play well," he remarked.

Bangladesh struggled because so many wickets fell in the middle overs, Najmul noted, and used 179 dot balls during the innings.

"We could have batted against Bracewell more effectively, in my opinion. We chose some bad shots, as I mentioned. We wouldn't have lost so many wickets if we had prepared better against him. "He bowled well, of course, but there was some bad execution," Najmul said.

We lost a wicket or two every five to ten overs, though, if you look at the dot balls today. Batsmen find it challenging to rotate the strike as a result. This wouldn't have occurred if we had established two significant alliances," he continued.

Najmul said he was disappointed by Bangladesh's early elimination and emphasized the necessity for a shift in strategy, particularly in terms of regularly reaching 300-plus totals.

"I believe that we must excel in every department. We bat well in the middle on certain days and at the top on others. We field well on some days. It is a disorganized situation. We can perform well in competitions like this and against strong opponents if we can play as a team," he stated.

"As a captain, it's really disheartening. We have performed admirably in the bowling unit during the past two years. Our fast bowlers and spinners are of high caliber. We finally have the wrist-spinner we've always desired. But we need to get much better as a batting and fielding team. We continue to make the same mistakes, as I have stated numerous times. We really need to focus on how to improve our batting. I hope after this tournament, we will make some changes in our approach and think differently about how to improve our batting," he added.

Regarding adjustments, I'm not referring to switching players. We must alter the way we think, how we support the team, and how we assume responsibility when we bat. It gets challenging for them if we keep switching up our lineup, playing one batsman one day and another the next. We must accept responsibility and support our resources. When it comes to responsibility, there is a divide," he stated.

Najmul said that the team was not under any additional pressure because of Bangladesh's declared intention to win the Champions Trophy. Rather, he contended that having big dreams is crucial.

"No, that's not how I think. All of the team members came here with the goal of winning. How can we play if we don't have great dreams? We came here with the goal of winning, not simply competing. Our team likes to dream big, even though the outcome didn't work out. Dreaming by itself won't help, though; we must strive for that goal. We still have a match left, so we need to concentrate on how to do well there even though it didn't happen in this tournament," he said. On February 27, in Rawalpindi, Bangladesh will play their final group-stage match against Pakistan to wrap up their Champions Trophy campaign. Given their age and present performance, their inability to realize their dream may also signal the end of their older campaigners' involvement in ICC tournaments.

[ad_1] Rachin Ravindra scored a century vs Bangladesh (Photo: Black Caps) Vaibhav Tripathi in Dubai On what appeared to be a batting paradise in Rawalpindi, Michael Bracewell wove a masterful spell, ensnaring four key wickets to shackle Bangladesh to a modest 236/9 in their allotted 50 overs. Though the chase seemed straightforward, Bangladesh jolted New Zealand early with two quick breakthroughs, giving Kiwi fans a slight scare. However, Rachin Ravindra’s elegantly constructed century, complemented by Tom Latham’s composed fifty, steadied the ship, guiding New Zealand to a comfortable five-wicket win. With this victory, New Zealand have secured their spot in the semi-finals alongside India from Group A, while Bangladesh and hosts Pakistan bow out of the tournament. Taskin Ahmed and Nahid Rana ignited Bangladesh’s hopes with a fiery opening spell, rattling New Zealand by sending the in-form Will Young and the ever-reliable Kane Williamson back to the dugout. With the opposition reeling, the stage was set for a spirited defence of their total. However, Bangladesh’s grip on the game loosened as their spinners faltered, both in execution and strategy. Mehidy Hasan Miraz leaked runs without posing a threat. Captain Najmul Hossain Shanto’s reluctance to introduce Rishad Hossain early proved costly—a stark contrast to the previous game, where his impact was decisive. As Ravindra and Devon Conway settled in, Shanto’s persistence with Mehidy instead of unleashing Rishad allowed New Zealand to claw their way back into the contest. Mustafizur Rahman revived Bangladesh’s hopes by breaking their 57-run stand, but the experienced Latham joined forces with the fluent Ravindra to stitch together a match-defining 129-run partnership. By the time Latham departed, the damage had been done. Glenn Phillips added the finishing touches with a carefree 21 off 28 balls, sealing New Zealand’s semi-final berth with ease. Bangladesh started their innings on a positive note with the new opening pair of Tanzid Hasan Tamim and Shanto. Both batters looked confident, scoring at a steady rate early on against Matt Henry and the returning Kyle Jamieson. Similar to the previous match, Tanzid played the aggressor, which encouraged Shanto to take on the bowlers as well. Their attacking approach prompted Mitchell Santner to introduce spin in the final over of the powerplay, a move that paid off immediately. Bracewell dismissed Tanzid, who mistimed a fuller delivery towards mid-wicket. Mehidy attempted to keep the momentum going but fell cheaply to William O’Rourke. Towhid Hridoy, the centurion from the last game, struggled to find his rhythm as Bracewell kept him in check with dot balls. The pressure eventually got the better of Hridoy, leading to his dismissal while trying to break free. Bangladesh’s middle order then faltered, losing wickets at regular intervals due to the mounting pressure from dot balls. Mushfiqur Rahim and Mahmudullah both perished while attempting big shots against Bracewell, who showcased his skill by varying his pace and lengths to claim four wickets. Shanto, alongside Jaker Ali, attempted to stabilise the innings, but the lack of runs continued to be a concern as the innings progressed. After reaching his half-century, Shanto fell in the 37th over while trying to take on O’Rourke. Rishad provided some late fireworks, but his attempt to go big off Henry resulted in a catch to Santner at mid-off. Jaker looked dangerous but struggled to get enough strike, eventually getting run out with just under two overs remaining. As a result, Bangladesh’s innings ended on a subdued note.   The post Rachin, Bracewell Propel New Zealand into the Semi-Finals appeared first on Sports News Portal | Latest Sports Articles | Revsports.

The Stakes: A Chance to Upset the Odds

The inclusion of young players brings energy and dynamism to the side, and their fearless approach could be a key factor.

Predicting the Playing 11: Finding the Right Combination

Predicting Bangladesh's playing 11 against India requires careful consideration of several factors. Here's a potential playing 11 that Bangladesh might field, keeping these factors in mind:

Tamim Iqbal (C): Tamim's experience and leadership at the top of the order are invaluable for Bangladesh. His aggressive batting style can set the tone for the innings.  

Litton Das (WK): Litton is a talented batsman and wicket-keeper. His ability to score quickly makes him a key player in the opening partnership.  

Najmul Hossain Shanto: Najmul has shown promise in recent times and is likely to bat at number three. He offers stability to the batting lineup.

Shakib Al Hasan: Shakib's all-round abilities make him an indispensable part of the team. His left-arm spin and batting prowess provide balance to the side. 

Mushfiqur Rahim: Mushfiqur's experience and batting prowess in the middle order are crucial for Bangladesh. His ability to build innings and finish games makes him a valuable asset.  

Mahmudullah: Mahmudullah's experience and ability to perform under pressure make him a key player in the lower middle order. His finishing skills are also important.

Afif Hossain: Afif is a talented all-rounder who can contribute with both bat and ball. His aggressive batting style and useful off-spin make him a valuable addition.  

Mehidy Hasan Miraz: Mehidy's off-spin and batting abilities make him a key player in the middle overs. His economical bowling can restrict runs and create pressure.  

Taskin Ahmed: Taskin's pace and ability to generate movement make him Bangladesh's strike bowler. His ability to take wickets with the new ball is crucial.  

Mustafizur Rahman: Mustafizur's variations and slower balls make him a difficult bowler to face, especially in the death overs.  

Shoriful Islam: Shoriful provides variety to the pace attack. His left-arm bowling can be effective against certain batsmen.

Potential Alternatives and Strategic Considerations

While the above playing 11 seems likely, there are a few other players who could be considered depending on the specific conditions and team strategy. Nasum Ahmed provides another spin option, and Hasan Mahmud could be included for extra pace.

Key Matchups and Tactical Approaches

The team management will need to make the right calls in terms of team selection and strategy to maximize their chances of success. With a balanced and determined squad, Bangladesh can give India a tough fight and potentially pull off a surprise victory. The match promises to be a captivating contest, and fans will be eagerly waiting to see how it unfolds.

Shapoor Zadran, a fast bowler for Afghanistan, has retired from international cricket

The fast bowler Shapoor Zadran of Afghanistan has declared his intention to retire from international cricket. The tall left-arm fast took 80 wickets in both formats throughout his 44 ODI and 36 T20I appearances since making his debut in 2009. He made his final appearance for his country in 2020 before ending his career on Thursday at the age of 37.

He had a typical fast bowler's mindset, was aggressive and sometimes lethal, and named Shoaib Akthar as his inspiration.

During the 2015 ODI World Cup, he gained widespread cult hero status and was cited as a pivotal player in Afghanistan's ascent to international fame. Steven Smith, David Warner, Kane Williamson, Tillakaratne Dilshan, and Mahmudullah were among his 10 dismissals, which were marked by joyous celebrations and had an average of 26.50.

However, his greatest achievement was in Dunedin versus Scotland, where he played a key role in the nation's first victory at a major competition.

After limiting Scotland to 210 with 4 for 38 from his ten overs, Shapoor was available at No. 11 to help create an undefeated final-wicket stand of 19. He even hit the game-winning boundary with three balls remaining, giving Afghanistan a historic one-wicket victory. At 12 not out, Shapoor achieved his second-highest ODI score.

Shapoor described his choice to resign as "one of the toughest decisions" of his life in a statement posted on his Facebook page.

"My journey started during the most difficult periods in Afghan cricket history," he stated. "I overcome many challenges, played with little funding, and encountered hardships, but I never lost hope. My teammates, coaches, cricket fans, and most importantly, my family, helped me get through every challenge. I want to express my gratitude to everyone who supported me over this lengthy journey. "My greatest strength has been the love, prayers, and steadfast support of my family, friends, fans, and the Afghan people. I shall be thankful for it forever."

West Indies 325 for 6 (Jangoo 104*, Carty 95, Rishad 2-69) beat Bangladesh 321 for 5 (Mahmudullah 84*, Mehidy 77, Soumya 73, Jaker 62*, Joseph 2-43) by four wicketsJangoo added 132 runs for the fifth wicket with Carty, and when West Indies lost two wickets in quick succession, he combined with Gudakesh Motie for an unfinished 90-run partnership for the seventh wicket to take them home. Motie remained unbeaten on 44 off 31 balls, hitting three sixes and as many fours. Jangoo's innings was resplendent with six fours and four sixes.Bangladesh reached 321 for five on the back of four fifties. Mahmudullah and Jaker Ali added 150 runs in an unbroken sixth-wicket stand, a Bangladesh record. The team also struck 12 sixes in the innings, their second-most in ODIs. West Indies, however, had their own big-hitting show in the bank.Brandan King picked up where he left off in the second ODI, as he cracked two fours and a six off Nasum Ahmed in the second over of the innings. His innings was cut short in the same over after a mix-up with his opening partner Alick Athanaze over a non-existent run. Athanaze himself did not last long, getting yorked in an attempted sweep in Nasum's next over.Keacy Carty was instrumental in the chase•Randy BrooksHasan Mahmud then had Shai Hope caught at slip for three before Sherfane Rutherford and Carty stabilised the innings with a 55-run fourth-wicket stand. Taskin Ahmed dealt West Indies a further jolt but dismissing Rutherford for 30.Carty was steady at the other end, already having struck two fours. Afif dropped him on 22 before Carty went after the Bangladesh spinners in the middle overs. He struck Rishad Hossain for consecutive fours in the 18th over, before hammering Mehidy Hasan Miraz for a six and a four in the 21st over. Jangoo struck Nasum for three fours in a short span before lofting Afif for his first six.It was in the 34th over that Bangladesh, perhaps, truly let the game slip. Jangoo had miscued one off Rishad, only to see substitute fielder Parvez Hossain Emon drop the chance while running back ffrom mid-off. Rishad did dismiss Carty next ball, with Soumya taking a low catch at point. He also took a stunning one-handed catch to dismiss Roston Chase but Jangoo's miss came back to haunt them.Immediately after Chase's exit, Jangoo slogged Mehidy for his second six, before Motie and Jangoo struck Mahmud for a six each in the 43rd over. They struck one four each in the following over bowled by Taskin, before the pair completed the chase.Mehidy Hasan Miraz and Soumya Sarkar added 136 runs for the third wicket•Randy BrooksThe day could have belonged to Bangladesh given how they batted. After a disastrous start, losing Tanzid Hasan and Litton Das in the third over to be reduced to 9 for 2, Soumya and Mehidy resurrected the innings with a 136-run third wicket partnership. Alzarri Joseph hurried Tanzid with a bouncer with the left-hander top-edging a pull shot. Litton's horror run in ODIs continued when he edged a wide one to King at first slip.Mehidy was positive from the onset, hitting five boundaries in the powerplay. Soumya, who was dropped on nought, opened up after the powerplay. He played the upper-cut against Romario Shepherd for a six, before pasting Chase and Motie for a six each in consecutive overs.Shortly after Soumya was dropped for a second time, on 45 by Jangoo, Mehidy struck debutant Jediah Blades for a four a six. Soumya added a four to take 16 runs off the over, before getting two more fours off his next. Soumya was on a roll when he struck Motie for his fourth six, but fell next ball when the left-arm spinner trapped him in front. Soumya's 73 came at a run a ball, including six fours and four sixes.Six overs after Soumya's dismissal, Rutherford's pinpoint throw from point found Mehidy short at the striker's end as he fell for 77 off 73 balls. Rutherford then had Afif Hossain caught at the midwicket boundary for 15, as Bangladesh again lost two wickets in quick succession.But the last 20 overs belonged to Jaker and Mahmudullah. The pair had already added 96 runs in the first ODI, but this time they went far better. After Jaker struck his first two fours, Mahmudullah crashed Motie down the ground for his first six, before hitting Chase for his second, over long-off.Jaker joined in the six hitting, when he slammed Shepherd over cover, followed by Mahmudullah dragging Rutherford from outside off to a six over square-leg. Bangladesh scored 59 runs in the last four overs, taking them to a strong total. It was ultimately not enough.Mohammad Isam is ESPNcricinfo's Bangladesh correspondent. @isam84
