Doesn't mean we'll just throw in the towel.

I'll tell you something though, Sakib as a cricketer does have balls, more than anyone bar Tamim. He also has some leadership qualities unlike any before him for a long time. He will take us places.. the sooner he believes in every member of his team, the better. I was really proud of our batting, despite the pitch being flat. We actually seem to have a game plan now for batting. Which is good.

Just have more confidence in your bowlers next time.Our bowlers can be one of the top 5 in a few months' time. We are better than the Indians in spin, and almost better in pace with a 2nd/3rd string attack.And our fielding is way better. We need to believe in ourselves more. Its Sakib recently that is making us believe we can.
