I have no clue as trying to read their minds is almost impossible for a sane person. I speculate that their smallish brains only retain a few 'catch phrase' myths( some facts ) about certain teams and they put it to work whenever the opportunity presents itself.
Such as : South Africa spin e kharap - amra oder tin spinner diye haraisy at WC- so, lets do it again, overload the team with spinners, and totally disregard the fact that a whole year has passed, and during that time SA has toured Pakistan and won a series. Something like that. I am sure they all shook their head in agreement and patted one another in the back for being so smart.
Similar thinking may also apply to Ireland. Ora spin khele na..etc etc..
