No matter how flat it is no matter how inexperienced the bowlers are at this level u expect your bowlers to contain runs, to bowl wicket to wicket.
We lost the game on day 1 and 2 , on day 2 our bowlers repeated the same mistake.
Thses guys are professionals , they get paid to bowl and take wickets, if they cant take wickets then atleast bowl with some discipline and intent.
If you can do neither the captain has every right to criticize you.
Just because Mushy is a dumb captain does not take away his right to criticize his own players.
And no one is selling/throwing anyone under the bus.
As a professional if you can't even do the basics right then u have to accept criticizme.
Eita shantona deyar jayga na, stump to stump bowl korteo jodi na parey tahole etodin ki shikhsey ?
It'll be fine if he criticised everywhere criticism was due, he didn't, he used this criticism to deflect away from his own mistakes, which was the biggest cause for the size of defeat, by using the criticism as a deflection away from him, he threw the bowlers under the bus.

Bowlers, especially young ones need help from captain, mushfiq provided none. Sure you criticise a striker for not scoring goals, but you can't expect him to score many with a weak midfield. Same applies for bowlers
