Bangladesh have won the Asia Cup survival match. Liton Das' team has kept its hopes of making the Super Four alive with an 8-run win over Afghanistan yesterday. However, Rashid Khan is not able to accept such a defeat. After the match, the Afghan captain said that his team was not able to play the kind of attacking cricket that they are known for at the beginning of the match.

After the match, Rashid Khan said, "I was in the match till the end. But I couldn't finish well. Scoring 30 runs off 18 balls is very possible in this day and age. We couldn't play the kind of cricket we are famous for in the beginning. We couldn't play the kind of cricket we have come to this stage to play."

As captain, Rashid Khan admitted that they took on too much pressure in the match, 'We took on too much pressure then. We couldn't execute the plan properly. That's what held us back.' According to Rashid, the wicket was suitable for 160-170 runs, and the bowlers did their job well, 'We turned the ball around really well, even after their start we kept them below 160. They scored almost 90 runs in the first 10 overs. The wicket was suitable for 160-170 runs.'

According to Rashid Khan, they lost the match due to some irresponsible shots while batting, 'We played some irresponsible shots while batting. We should have played more responsible shots.'
