Sriram: We are very clear about the best team we want to feature in WC

Bangladesh technical consultant Sridharan Sriram believes Bangladesh have learned a lot from the tri-series despite losing all four games.

Bangladesh failed to register a single win in the tri-nation series, which was played as a preparation for the upcoming T20 World Cup. 

Bangladesh team management tried many variations during this campaign, they tried four different opening combinations during the tri-series and rotated their fast bowlers as the spinners are relatively useless in such conditions.

"Everything has to come together for Bangladesh to win. We had two opportunities against Pakistan. We had to score 100 in the last ten overs in the first game, and defend 100 runs in the last ten overs in this game. We came up short by small margin in both games. But these are things to learn from. Good teams score or defend ten runs an over in the last half,” Sriram said.

The coach further said they have found the right choices for the World Cup.

"You look at it as experiments but we look at it as combinations. We will know how each player responds by putting them in different situations. I think we have learned quite a bit. We are very clear about our combinations against different teams. We have to keep all options ready,” he said.

“We are very clear about the best team we want to play. I think the captain, myself and the director are on the same page. We have two or three combinations in mind. Given the conditions, we will adopt accordingly," he added.
