Leaving for Test series against India- Bangladesh Captain makes Big Statement

Bangladesh captain Najmul Hossain Shanto is all set to take on the challenging two-Test series against India. Going good off their two-Test series win against Pakistan, Shanto stated that the team has ‘extra confidence’.

“This will be a challenging series for us but after having a good series against Pakistan, there is an extra confidence in our team as well as among all the people of the country,” Shanto told reporters in Bangladesh before boarding the flight to India.

“Every series is an opportunity and we will play to win both the matches. (We will focus on) the things that we need to do for the win…the process is important and we need to do our job properly.” he added.

“If we can do our job properly certainly a good result is possible but still it’s going to be very challenging. If you see the ranking they are far ahead of us but recently we played a good series and the most important thing is that how we can play good cricket. The result happens in the last session of the five days and so if we can play good cricket we have a chance to do well in the last session.”

“It is important what plans need to be executed to play well for five days and there will be a chance to win but let’s not think too far ahead and focus on our strength and how we can play good cricket.”

Shanto admitted the pace attack of Bangladesh is comparatively less experienced. Though he feels that their spinners are capable to deliver apart from the conditions.

“Our spin and pace is in a good frame. But still if you compare the teams, I feel our pacers are relatively less experienced compared to them,” said the 26-year-old. “Spin wise we are close to them but experience wise I would keep them ahead but our spinners can bowl in any condition and I can say this much – that all the players, whether pacers, spinners or batters, whoever will play, every player will give a hundred percent. The difference can be made when we play as a team.”
