Another display of poor brainless captaincy ! With 35/5 , WI was in a hole . But they won by 3 wickets with 66 balls left . Poor field placement , bowling change and defensive approach made it possible for the WI to win this match from behind . We have witnessed the same situations against SL and Pakistan recently . Mushfique used 3 overs from part time bowlers and that cost 30 runs ! Those were gifted 'lifeline' runs for the struggling WI and gave Pollard and Ramadin enough time to settle . What a team selection ! Mominul was dropped but four opening batsmen were selected . Mominul is also a useful slow left arm spinner which BD dearly missed during this encounter . As long as Mushfiq is captain I don't see any hope of winning any match ! Moreover , how come you don't have any left arm spinner in your team when opponent have six right handed batsmen ? Mominul and Razzak should have been in the team . Mushfiq is behind these to have his "In law"(Mahmudullah) to be in the playing eleven .
