Maheesh Theekshana Takes a Jibe at BCB Director’s ‘World Class’ Remark After Sri Lanka Knock Bangladesh Out of Asia Cup 2022
The Sri Lanka vs Bangladesh contest was perhaps one of the best matches of Asia Cup 2022 so far with both teams giving it their all to secure a Super 4 spot and not be knocked out of the tournament. Despite all the ebbs and flows, Sri Lanka held on and eventually won the match by two wickets.
Maheesh Theekshana aimed a sly dig at Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) director Khaled Mahmud for the latter's 'world class' remark with reference to Sri Lanka's bowling attack. The Sri Lanka vs Bangladesh Group B match in Asia Cup 2022 had a lot of words exchanged before the match and it all began when Lankan captain Dasun Shanaka remarked that Bangladesh's bowling attack was not strong enough, compared to that of Afghanistan. Mahmud, in response, hit back stating that Sri Lanka did not have any world-class bowlers while Bangladesh had skipper Shakib Al Hasan and Mustafizur Rahman. Theekshana's post was a response to that comment.
