    England LOST three games in a row to Bangladesh after winning T20 WC.

    Is this the first time it happened?

    Bangladesh is a good team but NOT that good to beat England three games in
    a row, that too a T20 World Cup winner.

    If you mean the first 3 T20 matches after winning the T20 WC, then yes.
    In fact, they are the first T20 World Champions not to win their next
    T20 match.

    The most consecutive T20 matches lost by the reigning T20 World
    Champions is 6 (West Indies in 2019).
