Bangladesh will head to the Asia Cup on the back of another T20 series win, their third in a row, and captain Litton Das says the team feel ready for what lies ahead.

The Tigers wrapped up the three-match contest against the Netherlands 2-0 in Sylhet, with the last game washed out by heavy rain.

That came after back-to-back 2-1 wins over Sri Lanka and Pakistan. For Litton, the Dutch series was less about the scoreline and more about the work done beforehand.

“We had a really good camp,” he said, pointing to the fitness work in Dhaka and the skill sessions that followed in Sylhet. “Fitness you can do anywhere, but the kind of practice we wanted was only possible there. I think the whole process was very good for us.”

There were, of course, questions about whether enough batters had time in the middle. In both wins, Bangladesh’s top order did most of the job, leaving little for the rest.

Litton didn’t see it as a problem.

“Of course, it would be better if more players got the chance. But the fact that they didn’t was because the top order was doing so well. That’s a good sign before a big tournament.”

He stressed that real improvement comes from match time, not just nets. “Whoever played did well,” he said. “Only Saifuddin didn’t really get the chance.”

Bangladesh open their Asia Cup campaign on September 11 against Hong Kong in the UAE, with Litton upbeat about the timing.

“I believe we are well prepared,” he said.
