To all the pundits who were over-analysing the situation and having b*tch fits during and after the Asia Cup, like I said we are not THAT bad. It was fatigue that was the underlying factor for our performance in the Asia Cup more than anything else. You could sense that the Asia Cup was just a distraction to the players and they were really looking forward to this series.
And for the Siddons bashers I will reiterate that he is not faultless however you can't blame him for stupidity and mental shortcomings. And like I suggested before a simple change in captaincy seems to have done the trick eh? For on-field performances the onus is on the captain. Shakib may have been decent with field settings and bowling changes but he was a poor man manager. Mash also slipped at times today however he was spot on on how to handle his boys.
As for the negatives well there are plenty of them. A lot of changes are needed in the team. But I am too happy to discuss them now.
