Having gone into the Asia Cup with lofty dreams, as it so often is the case with Bangladesh despite no history of success in major tournaments, skipper Shakib Al Hasan has already put it in the rearview mirror.

"We haven't been batting well for quite some time. It is a matter of concern. We have to fix these problems," said Shakib

While skipper Shakib Al Hasan pointed to the inability of putting on a big opening stand as one of the reasons behind his team’s 21-run defeat against Sri Lanka in their crucial Super Four encounter, the performance in Saturday's match practically summed up Bangladesh’s inconsistent batting performance throughout the Asia Cup.

With talks over adding an extra bowling option surrounding ahead of the match, the team management finally opted for an extra bowling option.

Batting failure once again led to the downfall of Bangladesh in their 21-run defeat against Sri Lanka in a crucial Super Four encounter in the Asia Cup at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo yesterday.

Batting was yet again the culprit as Bangladesh lost consecutive matches against Sri Lanka in the ongoing Asia Cup, this time succumbing to a 21-run loss in the Super Four stage of the tournament at the R.Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Saturday.

Karunaratne played a brilliant straight drive on the previous ball but Hasan responded with an absolute jaffa. This was back of a length pitching on leg, and then seaming and swinging away to square up the left-hander who could do nothing but look to defend this, and it feathered the edge through to wicketkeeper Mushfiqur Rahim.

The left-arm fast bowler rattled the Indian top-order in their Group A clash last week, taking 4-35 -- including the wickets of star batters Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma
