Bangladesh’s last warm-up game before T20 WC washed out
The Tigers lost the first warm-up game to Afghanistan by a 62-run margin. It meant Bangladesh will go into the World Cup with a five-match losing streak, having been outclassed in all of their four matches in the tri-nation series in New Zealand.
Bangladesh, however, will play their first match in the World Cup on October 24, against the runners-up of Group A, a group which consisted with Netherlands, Sri Lanka, Namibia and the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Apart from UAE, all of three teams are in contention to go to the main round.
Bangladesh didn’t win any match in the main round of the T20 World Cup since their only victory against West Indies in the inaugural edition of the tournament in 2007.
