Sohan ‘up for the challenge’

Bangladesh wicketkeeper-batter Nurul Hasan Sohan said that he is up for the challenge of leading the side in T20Is in the upcoming tour of Zimbabwe later this month.
"Obviously, it is a challenge for me, but I am up for it," Sohan told The Daily Star yesterday after being named the captain for the three-match T20I series against Zimbabwe, slated to begin on July 30 in Harare.
The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) announced a young T20I side for the Zimbabwe tour, resting the likes of usual T20I skipper Mahmudullah Riyad and Mushfiqur Rahim.
"I am confident that if we can play as a unit then we can perform a lot better. My aim will be to make the team stick together as a family and play as a unit. I led teams in the domestic circuit but leading the national team is obviously different. But I am confident that if everyone contributes from their end then my job will become much easier," Sohan reiterated.
"As a player, I have a specific role and as I will be leading the side, I will try to balance that," Sohan added.
