West Indies vs Bangladesh, 3rd T20I

Jaker Ali | Player of the Match:
It has been quite a wonderful series for me throughout. Today the wicket was good compared to the last two games. Today I was looking to take my time and I knew if I take it deep, I could score runs. That was a horrible mix-up and the third umpire called me back. Fortunately I scored runs after that and I'm happy. It's all about the mindset and I know the Caribbean boys will come hard whatever the format. I have played the World Cup here and even though I did not do well, things have been going well for me in this format.

Mahedi Hasan | Player of the Series:
World Cup time we had lots of options, that's why I did not play. Good experience in the Global T20 and that helped here. I enjoyed bowling on this type of wickets, we planned before the series to bowl wicket to wicket. I know Pooran, played with him in BPL and other leagues, he is a tough batter for a right-hand offspinner but we had plans against him. We did not have a good ODI series but for the T20Is the boys were hungry and hopefully we will do well in the Champions Trophy.

In the middle overs we bowled pretty well, in the powerplay we did not control and at the backend. It's just wickets in clusters, if we lose wickets in the first and second over, you are always going to struggle. This has been the case for the last 8 games or so. We have some time to correct them now. We don't come together until maybe May 2025 and guys have the time to review and correct the little mistakes. Hopefully in 2025 the little mistakes can be corrected. [on Bangladesh] They have been fantastic, after the ODI series, they have been very good. Wish them safe travels back home. It's my first full year as captain, we have improved from being ninth in the world but disappointing to see the last few series, we have fallen away, one can sense it when we are falling away. To all the fans of the Caribbean, a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Litton Das | Bangladesh captain:
We played really well in Test cricket and ODI also, unfortunately we did not win but we had the confidence. We know we have a very good bowling wicket and if we score well, we have the bowling to defend. [on Phil Simmons] He never give any pressure, we feel free to play cricket. Not only he but all the coaching staff and the management are helpful. We are improving day by day, this wicket was pretty good to bat on, the way our bowlers show the character is amazing. At the moment their batting order is better, they have powerhitters and we defended 190, it's a big achievement. At the moment we played really well, whenever we play again, we need to play well and come back strongly.

You not praising Sammy.

Everytime Sammy leads a team to victory-

Everyone wins.

it really is that simple.

you keep using the paradigm of Individuals

I ask you to take the Holistic and Umbrellic* viewpoint.

Sammy builds TEAMS that shine like stars.

cant fight the facts...use science , use stats...and for heavens sake...please to use results.

Everything rises and falls with Leadership- JOHN MAXWELL.
