T20 World Cup 2022: Rating Bowling of Super 12 teams in Week 1

10. Bangladesh- 5/10

Taskin Ahmed, the man in form for the side, scalped an incredible four-fer against the Netherlands as the Bangla Tigers just narrowly won the match by nine runs.  Keeping aside the one over from Mosaddek Hossain that was slammed for 14 runs, the overall performance was decent with the likes of Mustafizur Rahman giving away mere 20 runs in his four over and skipper Shakib Al Hasan picking up a wicket under his belt with an economy rate of 8.00.

Up next was the fixture against the Proteas, South Africa. The Bangla Tigers produced a rather disorganized bowling against the rival side as they got smacked for a mammoth 205 runs in their full quota of 20 overs. Rahman’s four over was the only over the Proteans were unable to target whole heartedly. From star bowler Taskin to Afif Hossain, nearly everyone had an economy rate of over 9.00.

The shambolic display on the pitch with the ball has completely rattled the Bangladeshi side following the battering they took against the African side. The side will need to gear up as they have had two contrasting outings with the ball in their two games and their forthcoming matches will set the tone for the rest of the tournament.
