Same team, but a completely different look. A team went to Pakistan and whitewashed them in Tests. The same team fell just shy of a whitewash at home against South Africa's inexperienced in the space of a month. Even losing by an innings.

However, this time the supporters of the team dreamed of something great against the Proteas. The opportunity to lose the Proteas in Tests does not come again and again. Stay away from taking that opportunity, Nazmul Hossain's calm team could not fight. Where exactly is the problem with the cricketers? When will Bangladesh win regular matches? When questions are raised about these; Then the captain said that the team will do well regularly.

Shanto blamed the batters for the series loss at home. "It's definitely very disappointing," he said. These show how much room we have for improvement. I won by playing good cricket in Pakistan. There are many areas on the field, off the field, where we need to improve.

Batters have been suffering Bangladesh for a long time. About which Shanto says, “This has been happening for a long time. If there is no partnership from the top order in Tests, it is very difficult for the next batsmen. I don't know what the top batsmen think or prepare. But if it continues like this, the result will be like this.”

“There are many areas of skill, where improvement is needed. Along with this, there should be a change in thinking. Where there is need for improvement, it has to be found.' About the off-field controversies, he said, 'They can have an impact. That does not mean that I will play so badly, I will be all out for one hundred and fifty runs. The players have to adapt to these things too,” said Shanto.  Shanto thinks it is important to do well as a team to win regular matches, 'Three or four of us bat at the top, even if there is a pair here, it helps the team. Pakistan also lost 6 wickets for 26 runs. Won the match, but the top batsmen did not do well. It is important to do well as a team. Specially the top order. Then the team will do well regularly.
