“I always give much importance on any achievement whether it is a men’s or women’s team while Bangladesh is in games. I’ve seen women’s team playing far away for so long. They became champions beating India in Asia Cup that was interesting and matter of good feeling for me,” Javed Omar Belim, who has been in control of the Tigresses since the South African tour as team manager, said.

Though they lost the Twenty20 series, they were very much close doors at victory, which is the biggest achievement. It was a different condition and had different flavors. In Scotland, it was not easier for them to play and win matches one after another. No doubt, we were much ahead of them on pen and paper, whatever they are, Thailand, Ireland, Scotland, Netherlands and PNG,” Belim said to The Independent.

But we can’t do it because of power-cricket. Our women are naturally behind South Africa and the West Indies in power. But I’m not worried about it because you can increase power-cricket by playing more games. I’m worried about its process,” he said.
