Liton’s form the only difference in dissimilar results?
The results of the T20Is stood in stark contrast in terms of margins of victory after Afghanistan won the second T20I at Sher-e-Bangla national Stadium today to share the spoils with Bangladesh. Having won the first T20I by 61 runs, the Tigers' batting capitulated today in the face of some tight and accurate bowling from Fazalhaq Farooqi, Mohammad Nabi and Azmatullah Omarzai. But overall, in terms of Bangladesh's batting display in the two T20Is, Liton's 44-ball 60 was the only key difference in the margin of the results. The difference between 155 and 115 was Liton's form with the bat and it raises further questions about the rest of the side's batting effort this series. Leading up to the World Cup in Australia on the back of disappointing losses in the T20 World Cup, Tigers' think tank knows there is a lot of improvement to be made, but more importantly do they know what they are lacking?
