Legends and pundits reacted on Friday's match between Pakistan and Bangladesh at the Lord's as the Bangla Tigers lost the match to Pakistan before both the teams bowed out of the tournament. However, Twitteratti praised the talents at the hand as heaped praise on individuals as their teams' future.

A washout game against SL and a huge loss to WI didn’t help their cause. Better luck in 2023. Go well.
The whole team is dependent on Shakib and Mustafizur!
@BCBtigers need to sort out bowling, apart from Mustafizur and Shakib, and fielding overall to be even more competitive. Barring ageing Mashrafe, the rest — plus those in waiting the wings— look good for another World Cup campaign, which is an advantage

Brilliant batting throughout the World Cup!!
And the best player in the league phase of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019 returns home. Well done Shakib! 👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏#AllRoundPerformance

Toss went according to plans but failed to reach the required Run rate!!
Another slowing surface. Another day where winning the toss is a big advantage.

It was always going to be tough!!
Only one ODI side has successfully chased a target of 300+ at Lord's.
