Desk Report:
Tanjim Shakib has been in international cricket for two years. In this short time, he has had the experience of playing ICC events and the Asia Cup in the Bangladesh jersey. He is not afraid to talk to the batters while looking them in the eye. Murali Karthik has showered praise on the young pacer of Bangladesh.
Along with a speed of 140 kilometers per hour, Ustad Tanjim Shakib is a master at ripping batters off with his line and length. After taking wickets, he often signals the batters to go to the dressing room. Apart from that, he sledges the batters regularly. Murali Karthik has found all the qualities that a pacer needs in him. In a discussion on Cricbuzz yesterday, Karthik said about the young pacer of Bangladesh, ‘I am a big fan of Tanjim. There is something world-class in his bowling. He has everything that a pacer needs to have.’
The Bangladesh-Afghanistan match will start at 8:30 pm Bangladesh time in Abu Dhabi today. If they lose this match, Liton Das and Tanjid Hasan Tamim will have to buy their tickets back home. Even if they win, Bangladesh will have to look forward to the Sri Lanka-Afghanistan match. In response to a question from the host on Cricbuzz yesterday about which bowler from Bangladesh can defeat the Afghans, Karthik said, “Of course, Mustafizur Rahman. It will be very difficult for Afghanistan to play against him.” Bangladesh lost the toss and elected to bat first against Sri Lanka in Abu Dhabi on Saturday and were reduced to 53 for 5 in 9.5 overs. In the sixth wicket, Zaker Ali Anik and Shamim Hossain Patwary’s unbreakable 86-run partnership of 61 balls helped Liton’s team reach 139 runs on the scoreboard. Apart from this, Zaker is also ready to step down in the middle order to take charge of the team if the team is in danger. New Zealand cricket analyst Simon Dool said about Zaker, “Zaker’s performance is really good. We hope to do well against Afghanistan.’
Sri Lanka won against Hong Kong yesterday by 4 wickets with 7 balls in hand. In that, the Sri Lankans are at the top of the ‘B’ points list. Along with 4 points, their net run rate is 1.546.
