World Cup Cricket 2007: Bangladesh vs England and 143 runs

Bangladesh played its match with England in super 8 in the World Cup Cricket 2007. The teams scored only 143 runs. Form the first the batsman showed this non-responsibility. For this, they have punished. If they become passion, they would get another victory.

Daily Times reported:
England’s three-pronged pace attack responded to their captain’s call by taking wickets at regular intervals as they bowled to an accurate line and length in a game which both sides needed to win to remain in hunt for a semi-final place. Bangladesh, with opener Shahriar Nafees replacing Javed Omar from the team which pulled off a stunning 67-run upset of South Africa in Georgetown last week, lost Tamim Iqbal in the second over of the innings. The teenager failed to keep Mahmood’s short delivery down and was caught in the gully.
Iqbal made eight, and was soon followed by captain Habibul Bashar (four) to a run out off a dropped catch by Vaughan to leave Bangladesh at 23-2. Nafees miscued drive off Mahmood was dropped by Vaughan at mid-wicket, but the England skipper threw the ball to the striker’s end where Bashar, who stopped in the middle before running, was left stranded. Nafees failed to capitalise on the chance, and another miscued drive off Mahmood rebounded off wicket-keeper Paul Nixon’s gloves to second slip where Andrew Strauss snapped up a sharp catch. Nafees made nine.

I think, at the last position of the England’s Innings Bangladesh would realized their faults of non-responsibilities batting.
