Southampton: Star all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan believes Bangladesh have the wherewithal to create an upset against India but they will need to produce their best to outwit the title favourites and keep their World Cup semifinal hopes alive. “India are the top side, someone who are looking at the title, it is not going to be easy but we will give it our best shot,” Shakib said. “Experience will help, we have to play our best cricket to be able to beat India. They have got world-class players who can take the match in their own hands. We have to be at our best but I believe we are a capable enough team,” he added. Bangladesh’s spin bowling coach Sunil Joshi also exuded confidence about the spinners in their ranks and hoped they will deliver the goods against India when they meet next week. — AFP
