Zimbabwe is a 'dear opponent' to return to Bangladesh cricketers. Whenever Bangladesh cricket is stuck in the circle of failure, Zimbabwe emerged as a 'friend of danger'. There is no shortage of jokes through social media. A few days ago, former BCB computer analyst Mohsin Sheikh said Bangladesh-Pakistan played the series with Zimbabwe to give dust to the fans. However, the senior assistant coach of Bangladesh Mohammad Salahuddin does not think so. Zimbabwe is a strong team in his eyes.
According to the FTP after the Champions Trophy failure, Bangladesh was scheduled to play a three-match ODI and Twenty20 series against Zimbabwe. However, Zimbabwe will come to Bangladesh to play only two -match Test series after the Eid. The first Test in Sylhet will begin on April 25. The last Test in Chittagong will be played in the field from April 25.
Zimbabwe is not in the rhythm of red in recent times. They lost to Ireland at home. Earlier, the two-match series against Afghanistan was 1-0. Yet Bangladesh does not see the opportunity to take them lightly.
Salahuddin told the media at the Iftar party of the BCB today, “Zimbabwe with Afghanistan but played very well in the Test. There is no chance of a test or any other format. Cricket round ball game, all the balls are important for you. '
The Pakistan Super League (PSL) will run during the Zimbabwe series. Pacer Nahid Rana, spinner Rishad Hossain and wicketkeeper batter Liton Das got the team. Except Rishad, the rest of the two are regular faces in the test.
In this regard, Salahuddin said, “If those who do not play the Test want to go out, I do not think there is any difficulty. It will benefit from the other side of the country. Compared to us with Afghanistan, you will find that there are 20-20 cricketers in Afghanistan who play outside cricket. Not only will it improve the game, but also the responsibility as a human being. Sharing the dressing room with big players will increase the experience, the idea about the game will increase. Then they can think of themselves as big players. '
