Shakib Al Hasan has blamed the batting failure for the defeat against Pakistan in today’s match that ended Bangladesh’s journey in the T20 World Cup 2022. However, the Bangladesh captain believes this was his side's best T20 World Cup performance . Read more: T20 World Cup: Bangladesh end campaign with another dismal batting display "At the halfway stage, we were 70 for 1." "We wanted to get somewhere around 145-150; that would have been a reasonable total on that pitch," the Bangladesh captain said after the match. "We could have done better." But having said that, with the new guys coming in and the changes, this is the best we could expect. On my own performance – I could have done better. "As long as I’m fit and performing, I would love to play," Shakib added. Read more: T20 World Cup: Was the LBW call against Shakib correct? He also added that it was Bangladesh’s best T20 World Cup performance so far, with the wins against the Netherlands and Zimbabwe. Before this, Bangladesh had never won two matches in the main draw of the T20 World Cups.

Bangladesh ended another T20 World Cup campaign with little to cheer about. They showed another dismal batting display in their last Super 12 match against Pakistan and lost by a big margin of five wickets on Sunday in Adelaide. While Bangladesh ended the World Cup with only two wins, Pakistan marched to the semifinals as the second team after India from Group 2. Pakistan had to chase down a target of 128 and they did it with ease. They have lost some important wickets occasionally, but that did not harm their chase. Mohammad Rizwan led the charge by scoring 32, while Mohammad Haris posted 31. Nasum Ahmed, Shakib Al Hasan, Mustafizur Rahman, and Ebadot Hossain each bagged a wicket for Bangladesh.

Shanto and Liton Das opened the innings for the Tigers in this match, and Liton hit an early six, showing the Tigers' positive intent in batting. But he lost his wicket to Shaheen Afridi inside the powerplay for 10 off eight balls. It was a short ball from Shaheen, and Liton tried to pull it off but ended up giving a regulation catch to Shan Masood. Bangladesh didn't lose any more wickets in the first 10 overs, but in the 11th over, they suffered a double blow when Soumya Sarkar fell while playing a reverse sweep off Shadab Khan. Off the next ball, Shakib suffered a controversial lbw. TV replays showed the ball was touching Shakib's bat before hitting his pads, and the bat was not grounded either. But the umpire called him out. Shakib left the field in utter disbelief with a golden duck that put Bangladesh into further trouble.

Their dismissals made it tough for Bangladesh to go for a big total. But Afif Hossain was unbeaten for 24* off 20 balls. He helped Bangladesh pass the 100-run mark in this match. Eventually, Bangladesh ended up on 127 for eight. For Pakistan, Shaheen bagged four wickets, conceding 22 runs, while Shadab bagged two. This match came as a great chance for both Bangladesh and Pakistan to qualify for the semifinals. Pakistan made use of it with both hands, but Bangladesh failed in every way. They failed to bat well, they failed to field well, and they failed to bowl well too.

Their last Super 12s match of the T20 World Cup against Pakistan was no different. If the batters could have done better, Bangladesh might have ended the World Cup with a better outcome. In contrast, Pakistan made a brilliant comeback in the last two matches after a poor start and advanced to the semifinals by overcoming Bangladesh by five wickets in Adelaide.

Bangladesh Captain Shakib Al Hasan was given LBW by the TV umpire against Pakistan in today's T20 World Cup match. Shakib just got to the field after the dismissal of Soumya Sarkar and failed to do anything due to a heavily controversial decision that created some chaos on social media as well.  The delivery of Shadab Khan was straight to the stumps and hit the pads of Shakib as well, but not before touching his bat as the TV replays suggested.  Bangladesh were off to a good start when the incident occurred. Liton Das fell early to Shaheen Afridi. But Soumya and Najmul Hossain Shanto were steady in the middle and were trying to build on.  Read More: ‘This has been Bangladesh’s best T20 World Cup performance’: Shakib But losing two wickets off two consecutive deliveries put Bangladesh in deep trouble.  According to TV replays, the ball hit Shakib’s pad after it touched his bat, and the bat was not grounded either -- there was no indication that the signal of the snickometer was generated from the sound of the bat touching the ground.  It means the signal of the snickometer was actually generated from the sound of the ball touching Shakib’s bat. So in this scenario, the call of LBW against Shakib was not a correct one from the TV umpire.  “Shakib’s bat didn’t touch the ground at all. Just focus on bat’s shadow. There was a spike,” Akash Chopra, the former Indian cricketer and cricket analyst, tweeted. “It couldn’t have been anything else except the ball hitting the bat. Bangladesh at the receiving end of a poor umpiring decision.” Brad Hogg, the former Australian cricketer and TV presenter, also cast some doubts over this decision.  “The tournament has been shadowed by a few dubious decisions,” he wrote on his Twitter. “Thoughts, did the bat hit the ground or ball?” Read More: T20 World Cup: Bangladesh end campaign with another dismal batting display Ariful Islam Roney, a Bangladeshi journalist who is covering this match from the ground, also opined that it was a big mistake from the umpire.  “The gap was clear between the bat of Shakib and the ground,” Roney wrote on his Facebook. “TV replays from all angles made it clear. The ball actually hit Shakib’s bat. Did the umpire make a mistake? Certainly.” Bangladesh eventually ended up their innings on 127 for eight in 20 overs. Najmul Hossain Shanto scored 54 off 48 balls — the highest for Bangladesh. Shaheen Afridi bagged four wickets while Shadan Khan scalped two.

Read More: Bangladesh vs Pakistan T20 world Cup Live Streaming: Where and How to watch live, Playing XI Earlier in the day at Adelaide, the Netherlands beat South Africa and paved the way for the winners of the Bangladesh vs Pakistan match in their quest for a semifinal spot in the T20 World Cup 2022. Bangladesh team is now eying to put up a big total against Pakistan in Adelaide after opting to bat first. Prior to this contest, Bangladesh took on Pakistan in 18 T20Is and won only two of those matches.

Bangladesh will play their final Super 12 Round fixture against Pakistan on Sunday (November 6) at the Adelaide Cricket Ground, which will also be Pakistan’s last in the group stage. Both teams have an outside chance of securing a place in the semi-finals depending on the outcomes of the remaining two games in this group. Let’s have a look at the match preview, h2h record, venue statistics, and probable lineup of the Bangladesh vs Pakistan T20 World Cup 2022. BAN vs PAK ICC Twenty20 World Cup 2022: Match Preview Bangladesh team was so close to earning a victory over India in their last encounter but lost disappointingly by 5 runs (d/l method). Team Tigers could have been in a strong position to advance to the knockout stage had they overcome India in Adelaide. But they can still make it to the semis if South Africa lose its contest against the Netherlands. But Bangladesh has to overcome Pakistan first before getting into any kind of conversation. Read More: How Bangladesh’s semifinal dream can still be fulfilled  Litton Das played the best innings for his side against India with a 60 off 27 balls knock. Taskin Ahmed and the pace bowlers have been brilliant for Bangladesh in this World Cup. So, Bangladesh’s team spirit should be high to put up their best efforts against Pakistan. Pakistan, on the other hand, came back strong against South Africa, winning the match by 33 runs (d/l method). Shaheen Shah Afridi seemed to find his rhythm while playing against South Africa. Leg-spinner Shadab Khan was brilliant with the bat and ball, as well. Iftikhar Ahmed has been criticized for not playing to his full potential, but against the Proteas, he was superb with the bat. One of the main concerns in Pakistan's campaign is captain Babar Azam’s poor form. Overall, Pakistan will start as favourites in this contest against Bangladesh given the strengths of both squads. Pakistan vs Bangladesh head-to-head T20I Record Pakistan and Bangladesh have met in 17 T20Is. The Pakistan team has dominated the head-to-head contest with 15 wins, compared to Bangladesh's two victories. The two sides last met during a tri-nation series in New Zealand in October, where Pakistan comfortably beat Bangladesh by 7 wickets. Bangladesh vs Pakistan ICC Twenty20 World Cup 2022 match schedule The Bangladesh vs Pakistan T20 World Cup 2022 contest will be held at the Adelaide Oval on November 6, and as per schedule, the match will start at 10 a.m. (Bangladesh Standard Time), which is 9 a.m. Pakistan Standard Time. Read More: T20 World Cup: Australia beat Afghanistan by 4 runs BAN vs PAK T20 World Cup 2022 match venue: Adelaide Oval Ground’s T20I stats The Adelaide Oval cricket ground has hosted nine Twenty20 international matches so far. Here are some key Twenty20 International records for the ground. Matches Played (T20I): 9 | Bat First Won: 6 | Bat Second Won: 3 | Highest Team Innings: 233/2 | Lowest Team Innings: 117 | Highest Run Chased: 158/9 | Highest Individual Innings: 100* | Best Bowling Figure: 4/15 Adelaide’s weather report and pitch There is no chance of rain in Adelaide on Sunday (November 6) as the whole day is predicted to be sunny. Since the bat-first team has a better record at this venue, the toss-winning captain might be tempted to chase here at the Oval. Pakistan vs Bangladesh ICC T20 World Cup 2022: Predicted playing XI The Bangladesh campaign is unlikely to make any changes to their playing XI. They are likely to field the same playing XI against Pakistan that took part in the match against India. On the other hand, the Pakistan side is unlikely to make any adjustments to their winning playing XI. Pakistan (probable playing XI)Top-Order: Mohammad Rizwan (wicket-keeper), Babar Azam (captain), Mohammad Haris, Middle-Order: Shan Masood, Iftikhar Ahmed, Shadab Khan, Mohammad Nawaz, Mohammad Wasim, Lower-Order: Shaheen Shah Afridi, Haris Rauf, Naseem Shah Bangladesh (probable playing XI) Top-Order: Najmul Hossain Shanto, Litton Das, Shakib Al Hasan (captain), Middle-Order: Afif Hossain, Nurul Hasan (wicket-keeper), Mosaddek Hossain, Yasir Ali, Taskin Ahmed, Lower-Order: Shoriful Islam, Mustafizur Rahman, Hasan Mahmud Read More: T20 World Cup 2022: Semifinal qualification scenarios Verdict The match preview and head-to-head record favour the Pakistan team to win the contest against Bangladesh on Sunday at the Oval in Adelaide, the match venue. However, who will be in the playing XI for the Bangladesh vs Pakistan match will be important to the match's outcome. The winner of this match could advance to the semifinals of the T20 World Cup 2022. They can move on to the next stage if either the Netherlands or Zimbabwe win their respective games against South Africa and India. The aim for both Pakistan and Bangladesh, therefore, should be to win their last Super 12 Round match on Sunday in order to end their World Cup campaigns on a high note.
