Quite non existing middle order is the foremost contributing factor behind Bangladesh’s inability to trounce the quarter final hurdle in the recently concluded U19 World Cup. Bangladesh batting was a top heavy one as top four scored most of the runs of the team total. Unfortunately there was no proper middle order batsman in the Bangladesh team. The team was loaded with a number of mini allrounders who failed to deliver with the bat. Spinners didn’t get enough support from Australian wickets which was pretty expected. Still the team management made the terrible decision of depending too much on the spinners as we have seen against South Africa in the group stage.
