“I think it was impressive all around. Fielding was quite nice as well. I think we managed to pull off 15-20 more than the par wicket. I think the par on that wicket was 155-odd. But then again, to put 171-odd was a very good effort from the boys. So as long as we keep pushing those boundaries, but yeah, when it came to the ball, I think the boys were just top draw.”
Meanwhile, Towhid Hridoy said, “I wanted to bat. Because all matches we are bowling first, so I wanted to bat today. Yeah, just we wanted to make more partnership. It looks like a good wicket, but as I mentioned, we need to bat well.
Speaking on today Bangladesh Cricket team playing 11, Hridoy said, “Yeah, we have one change. Nasum (Ahmed) not playing, Rishad (Hossain) is playing.
