Ireland captain William Porterfield gave credit to Bangladesh after their final warm-up game ended in defeat.
Phil Simmons’ side suffered a 44 run lost in Fatullah this morning, but Porterfield remains confident ahead of Monday’s ICC T20 World Cup opener against Zimbabwe.
After the game this morning the ex-Donemana man spoke to Sentinel Sport’s cricket correspondent Barry Chambers.
