We need to practice chasing scores around 160 regularly so that people learn how to pace themselves... It seems our batters are weak at math by the way they go after every delivery as if we are chasing 200. As the hits by Mashrafi showed... we could have been in the game had we not lost so many wickets trying to play shots that simply wasn't there. An intelligent side would have kept wickets in hand and backed themselves to get 10 runs per over in the last 5 since the ground was small and outfield was lightning fast.
