Bangladesh lost at least three wickets for their unnecessary intention to play big shots. They went to play big shots when they needed only rotating the strike.

The newcomer, Nazmul Hossain Shanto to went to strike Jasprit Bumrah out of the park when a single should have been enough for him.

The experienced guy Shakib Al Hasan made the same mistake. He went to sweep Ravindra Jadeja after hitting two fours in a row.

MS Dhoni read the mind of Shakib correctly as he advised Rohit Sharma to place a fielder at the square leg.

Rohit did so, and Shakib played that sweep to get caught. Mushfiqur went for a reverse sweep and got dismissed.

These three of Bangladeshi batsmen threw their wickets away that made them losing side.
