If you listen to Rashid Khan, it would seem that Bangladesh cricket started in the international arena. It was the voice of the Afghanistan captain after sharing the trio's title with the hosts.

Afghanistan won the ODI status permanently in the 21st spot. Last year, the team enrolled in the country's Qatar Test Qatar. Afghanistan lost to Bangladesh in their third Test and Afghanistan survived this edition. Afghanistan is ahead of Sri Lanka, West Indies and Bangladesh in the T20 rankings. If the improvement graph is like this, then any team wants to integrate itself into playing against a bigger opponent. Rashid Khan said this after the tri-series rainy season tomorrow and he sees Bangladesh as an example.

In fact, if you don't develop the habit of playing with big teams, losing them is very difficult. Playing with big teams gives them the strength and ability to break even if not at all regular. The way to become a big party, as it floats in front of the eyes. Bangladesh, like the first one-dayer against South Africa in Providence in the World Cup, have tasted five matches in the last five years. Then, after playing five more matches in the middle eight years, Bangladesh saw two wins against South Africa in 20 matches.

Rashid Khan told the media about the context of Bangladesh, “Bangladesh is the best example. They have had the best success in the World Cup after playing many matches against South Africa. If we want to be a good team, we need to play more with the big teams. It's definitely not a match in four years. ”The Afghan captain also cited the lack of playing with big teams," in the last five years we have played two matches (all at the World Cup) with England, Australia and New Zealand. If I played more matches, I could know their strengths and abilities. You should think about it. '

Large teams have an abundance of good pacers. Speed ​​is also high. There is no such pacer (more than 5 km) in a squad like Scotland or Ireland. Even in the Bangladesh squad, a pacer cannot force a regular pace over 5 km. Rashid also voices the lack of experience of facing pacers who do not play regularly with big teams, “There are four pacers in each of these teams who are bowling at the top. But we play against Scotland and Ireland, who have no such pace. ”

Rashid did not hide in trouble because he could not play with the elite teams at the World Test Championship. The Afghan leg-spinner, however, said he was wrong when he played well in the Test version, saying, "We have a lot of trouble because of not playing in the World Test Championship. But if we can prove that we played well in the Test, the decision (not to take the Test Championship) was wrong. Again, one has to think that just three Test matches cannot be held in a team.
