Bangladesh national cricket team players conveyed Eid greetings to their fans and followers on Saturday as the country celebrates Eid-ul-Fitr, the largest religious festival of the Muslims.
Bangladesh batter Mushfiqur Rahim reached his career-best rankings in Tests after he amassed 177 runs in the one-off Test against Ireland earlier this month.
Mushfiqur Rahim’s stellar outing with the bat against Ireland in the one-off Test in Mirpur, which ended with Bangladesh winning by seven wickets today, saw him cross the 14000-run mark in international cricket.
Bangladesh middle-order mainstay Mushfiqur Rahim has batted at number four for the major portion of his career. When the going gets tough in difficult conditions, it usually comes down to Mushfiqur to steer the Tigers’ batting order out of trouble.
A day ahead of the third and final ODI against Ireland on Thursday, the Tigers showed up to practice but two familiar faces, Shakib Al Hasan and Mushfiqur Rahim, were not amongst the group that trained.
Bangladesh head coach Chandika Hathurusingha lauded the Tigers’ ODI and Test skipper Shakib Al Hasan for reaching the milestone of 7000 ODI runs in ODIs, saying that had the premier all-rounder played in conditions like England, Australia, or even India, he would have scored around 12,000 runs in the 50-over format.
Everything he hit seemed to turn into something special, but what was even more special was how Mushfiqur Rahim kept doing it over and over as he notched the fastest ODI ton by a Bangladeshi.
Mushfiqur Rahim’s sleek carnage was a sight to behold for the plush crowd attending the game at Sylhet International Cricket Stadium today. The batter got 100 off 60 deliveries, the fastest ODI ton by a Bangladesh batter and it hooked Liton Das as well.
Towhid Hridoy was shaped by unfortunate long before his first international appearance for Bangladesh national team. In 2013, a ‘fake’ cricket academy in Banasree embezzled money from him deceitfully. His family suffered as they had to mortgage land for a young Hridoy to join that academy but his career faced early setback. Batting with the likes of Shakib Al Hasan and Mushfiqur Rahim yesterday, Towhid showcased his own talent. He talked to The Daily Star’s Abdullah Al Mehdi on facing deceit when pursuing cricket, and support of his family through difficult times. He also talked about batting with Mushfiqur Rahim yesterday and gave his opinion on Mashrafe Bin Mortaza’s comment during the BPL regarding his national team call up.
