Both today and in the last match bad batting cost us the match, just in a different way. Yes, Ash's SR was going up gradually in the 2nd match, like from 15-20% to 40%!!! You could say Ash needed to bat like he did in the first match. Unfortuantely like you, Ash and many of our players don't realize there's a middle ground between "BOOM BOOM" and "BLOCK BLOCK", which goes by the name of "sensible batting".
Few more players needed to bat like Tamim batted today, and one of them needed to get a big score. That's how every team does it, chasing a challenging but very much chase-able target.
