World Cup 2022 qualifiers: Bangladesh captain Jamal Bhuyan - We knew India had issues in defence

Bangladesh captain Jamal Bhuyan felt that his side were fully deserving of all three points after a 1-1 draw against India in a crucial 2022 World Cup qualifier in Kolkata on Tuesday.

Bangladesh looked to be on course to win all three points, courtesy of an error by India goalkeeper Gurpreet Singh that allowed Saad Uddin to head into an open net in the first half.

But a late header from Adil Khan meant that Bangladesh had to settle for a point despite a resolute defensive performance that saw India struggle to break them down.
