Bang played to potential: Islam

Adelaide: Former Bangladesh captain Aminul Islam said on Tuesday the team winning against England without the likes of opener Tamim Iqbal and veteran all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan firing speak volumes of the other players in the outfit. On Monday, Bangladesh knocked England out of the World Cup as they beat the Three Lions by 15 runs to reach the quarterfinals for the first time. “Bangladesh’s certainly have (played to potential) and considering they won the game with neither Tamim nor Shakib contributing with the bats, shows that they have a lot to offer,” Islam wrote in a column for the International Cricket Council (ICC) website
