Bangladesh cricket team will look forward to end their World Cup journey on a positive note against the Men in Green today, at Lord’s. Let’s have a look at their key players.
1. Shakib Al Hasan (Bangladesh)- Despite the team’s poor performance in the tournament, it has been Shakib’s exceptional innings with the bat that has been a highlight in this on-going World Cup.

He has scored 542 runs and is only two runs behind Sharma and also managed to register two centuries.
