After whitewashing Bangladesh at home, the opposite picture is now at the opponent’s venue. Pakistan has already lost the series by losing two consecutive matches. Former cricketer and commentator Ramiz Raja gives full credit to Bangladesh for the victory in challenging conditions. He also pointed out Pakistan’s shortcomings.
Ramiz Raja is also on the tour of Bangladesh with the Pakistan team. He is busy with his commentary. He also talks about various aspects of the ongoing series on his YouTube channel ‘Ramiz Speaks’.
Praising Bangladesh, Ramiz Raja said, “Pakistan lost the match, the series too. Many congratulations to Bangladesh. Bangladesh once again taught Pakistan how to bat and bowl on a tough pitch. Bangladesh missed a lot of catches towards the end, which can happen under pressure. If Fahim had not been out, Pakistan could have won. But Pakistan made the match very difficult for themselves, losing 5 wickets for 15 runs.”
Ramiz Raja sees team confidence as the key to Bangladesh’s victory. He also praised Zaker Ali’s fighting innings. According to him, “Pakistan came into this series as favorites by winning the series 3-0 at home. But Bangladesh must be given credit because the gallery was full of their fans, their spirit was very high. They also did very well in batting. Especially Zaker Ali played great. Overall, Bangladesh’s performance was very good.”
Ramiz also spoke about the weaknesses of the Pakistan team. He blamed the lack of specialist bowlers, especially for playing in tough conditions. He said, “Today (yesterday) Pakistan did not have a specialist spinner. And this is a big deficiency. Even though Bangladesh’s Rishad played badly, he is a regular bowler – specialist bowlers are needed in difficult situations.” Ramiz also said, “I will tell Pakistan, we have to learn from this defeat. To move forward, we have to do a lot. We have to work on technique. Just big hitting will not work. What kind of shots to play on what wicket, when to hit big, how strong is your defense, what is the condition of running between the wickets – Pakistan has to fix everything. There is a lot to learn, a lot to understand and we have to learn to work accordingly.”
