You have to accept it. In the first two matches, all the pacers went for six-seven runs per over. Our spinners were more useful in those wickets and conditions. That’s why I did not complete my ten overs. In the last match, I was required to bowl and eventually I bowled ten overs. I was okay until eight-nine overs but conceded ten runs in the last over,”

Mashrafe Mortaza said : “Most opponents plan about West Indies’ batting, because of how they mostly adopt the T20 style of play in ODIs. Bowlers will have a hard time if they get going, so we have to be strict in our planning. The positive part is that, playing lots of shots also gives us chances,”

Mashrafe Mortaza concluded : “Most of the players are physically fine, although there are some niggles. As far as our mentality is concerned, I think if anyone doesn’t feel 100 per cent, they may have to act that he is okay for the sake of the team, and keep working hard. It is not one or two players’ responsibility to take the team forward in a tournament like the World Cup. There’ll be ups and downs, but we must pull it together for the team. So far, everyone is okay but a win will boost this side,”

Mashrafe Mortaza said : “I am not frustrated at all. As a professional player and a performer, it is quite obvious to face such questions if you are not performing or are not able to give your best performance for three-four matches. You have to accept it. In the first two matches, all the pacers went for six-seven runs per over. Our spinners were more useful in those wickets and conditions. That’s why I did not complete my ten overs. In the last match, I was required to bowl and eventually I bowled ten overs. I was okay until eight-nine overs but conceded ten runs in the last over,”
