Bangladesh wicket-keeper Mushfiqur Rahim praised his side for tight bowling and fielding in restricting the Netherlands to just 160 in their crucial World Cup Group B clash on Monday.
The Dutch won the toss and opted to bat but slumped to 160 all out in 46.2 overs despite 53 not out from the dangerous Ryan ten Doeschate. Abdur Razzak was the pick of the bowlers, with 3-29 from his 10 overs.
"After we lost the toss we had to field and our bowlers did a great job to restrict them to 160 and I think all the fielders also fielded well," said Rahim.
Bangladesh did not bowl a single wide or no-ball in a disciplined display.
Rahim said the ground fielding had been excellent, although some catches were dropped. "We will make sure it doesn't happen in the big matches," he added.
"Last match we had a do-or-die match (against England) and everybody was motivated and really performed well and we got over the line and hopefully today we will chase that down."
