They have played some terrible cricket in suffering an ODI series defeat against Afghanistan, losing an ODI and a T20 international against Ireland, while also being swept in two T20I series against the West Indies.
But they have also played some superb cricket, reaching the T20 World Cup final in June, and winning two away Test series against the West Indies, and now against Bangladesh.
