Gemcon Khulna skipper Mahmudullah said on Saturday that their failure as a batting unit hit them hard against Gazi Group Chattogram in the ongoing Bangabandhu T20.

Pacer Mustafizur Rahman four-wicket haul coupled by opener Liton Das brilliant fifty helped Gazi Group Chattogram earn yet another win in the Bangabandhu Twenty20 Cup as they thrashed as Gemcon Khulna by nine wickets at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium on Saturday.

It was all too easy for Gazi Group Chattogram in their Bangabandhu T20 Cup encounter against Gemcon Khulna as the star-studded Khulna were bundled out for 86 -- the lowest total of the five-team tournament so far- and later a blistering unbeaten fifty from stylish opener Liton saw Chattogram chase down the meagre total in just 13.4 overs.

‘’I feel our lower-orders’ batting was very impressive from the beginning and that is certainly a positive side for us. Today we failed again as a batting unit but spinners did well especially Shakib. This is certainly a positive side. However, it wasn’t enough to win the game,’’ Mahmudullah was quoted after being humiliated at the hand of Chattogram on Saturday.

‘’We have failed to utilize our plans. We couldn’t execute what we decided in the dressing room, although we are hopeful of a strong comeback and will do our best in the next,’’ he said.

‘’I guess forgetting something isn’t the solution. We have to keep in mind where we did the wrong and also wouldn’t do the same mistake again. I guess the wicket helped the bowler, although this can’t be an excuse as we failed to do our job,’’ he said.
