At the end of the day, I find the situation very depressing. First, Shafayet and Afzaal proved the bowling attack including Taposh and Rafiq toothless against quality batsmen. Then our regular batsmen again fell like ninepins against a second string county bowling side. Mushfiq's innings was a treat, but I can't expect him to score a century or a fifty in his debut match.
Our result in Australia always used to assure me that our team would not do too bad against England. Now the comphort of that assurance is gone.
