There is no doubt in the cricket fraternity about subcontinental players' incompetence in batting on bouncy wickets. The other teams will surely exploit this weakness; so I am not too optimistic about a subcontinental team's chances of lifting the trophy this year. South Africa and Australia are the favorites to win this year's trophy.
As a Bangladeshi, I will be right behind the Tigers. But based on the conditions and the resources we have, I think it will be really difficult for us to qualify for the second round. My expectations from my team is simple. I want them to first beat Scotland, Afghanistan and one of the test playing nations from their group. If they can do that and manage to maintain a decent net run rate, then 3 wins are enough for a place in the quarterfinals.
