Time is running out. Liton Dass's bat is not talking. Suffering from run drought. There is no fifty in the last 12 innings in Tests, ODIs and T20s. Lytton's bat has been lackluster in all three formats. One of the free stroke makers in the country's cricket history seems to have forgotten to run.

Many believed that Litton might bounce back in the T20 series at home against Zimbabwe's weak bowling. But where? Liton's disappointing form in the first match yesterday against Zimbabwe. While his counterparts Tanjid Tamim and Tawhid Hridiya have blasted fours and sixes, Liton Das has been bowled for just 1 run.

Liton Das' lack of form has given rise to many questions. The question of many, stylist free stoke maker Liton Das can play the World Cup with this bad form? What will he be considered? Will the team management and selectors trust the lost Liton Das?

On the other hand, young people are coming up. Another opener Tanjid Tamim scored a fifty on T20 debut. Tawheed Hriday's bat is also quite fluent. At the bottom Zaker Ali Anik also proved his mettle against Sri Lanka. All in all, options are emerging.

Meanwhile, after listening to batting coach David Hemp, it seems that the team management does not have any negative thoughts about Liton Das right now.

Liton Das is not getting runs, his bat is not talking, Hemp has no qualms about admitting it. However, he said, "Liton is working hard. There is nothing else to do except to work extra hard to stay off form.

Lytton has no runs with the bat, so the batting is not as fluent as before. David Hemp, Tiger's batting coach, said, "Litton may be able to bat comfortably again if he returns to runs." Now he is trying that.
