What doesn't kill you makes you tougher...

Instantaneous emotions are understandable..

..but let's make this the springboard for things to come.

Today's the day the cubs turned into a bunch of toughened and roughened Tigers.

what kind of tigers have innings of 16 from 53 and 27 from 63? This is I dont like

That's what I told myself. This will be good for them in the long run, they will stay hungry. Pakistan only one it ONCE this whole entire time. So it's not all that bad.

But really, these are the situations that defines who and where we are as a team. Lets face it, we chocked. Simple. But only difference is, we chocked in the finals. We overcame 2 close games which we probably would've chocked couple of months ago. We've learned not to do that. Now we will learn from this, to not to chock in the finals.

We did really well, didn't we? Yes, the loss hurts like hell. But the pain is temporary. We'll bounce back. The boys have given us belief that they will compete for trophies in years to come. We'll get there one day. That might not be any consolation right now. But, holy smokes, we were no-hopers not too long ago. One tournament changed everything. More to come. I'm sure of it.

I'd love to feel optimistic but i am not at least at this point. We came close in Multan and i dont think it helped us in any way in the matches played after that

I am not that optimistic either. We had a great tournament and tonight's loss hurts a lot. The team has lots of weak links such as no.2 and no.3 position and 3rd seamer. TI and Shak won't score 50s every time.

But but we the fans - the 12th man will score for them always!

It can go either way, but there are reasons to be optimistic. When was the last time Bangladesh played well in 4 consecutive matches against quality oppositions who are familiar with the conditions?

What the coaches and management have to make sure is that the the defeat does not kill them. Then they will emerge stronger. let them be the "super-bug" of the cricket world.
