Bangladesh won the last trophy in 1997; ICC Trophy After that Bangladesh went to the Asia Cup win twice. But could not win Now again the Asia Cup will be held in front of Bangladesh. Akram, who won the ICC Trophy, said he is not seeing any reason why Bangladesh team does not perform well in this tournament.
This year's Asia Cup is again in ODI format. And as a team, Bangladesh are strong enough in ODIs. Therefore, chairman of Cricket Board of Cricket Operations Committee (ECB) Akram has enough reason to be optimistic, "Bangladesh has been playing well for the last few years in ODIs. We were in good play in the country and we were in the game. They have won the ODI series in West Indies. As a result, we can hope for good in the Asia Cup. "
After giving this argument to himself, Akram again reminded that Asia Cup is not a boy game. Playing with three world champions here. So the former batsman said, 'It should be remembered that the Asia Cup is a tough tournament. There are three World Champion teams here. Pakistan and India are very good form. Keeping this in mind, we have to expect. As a result it will be a tough tournament.
