After a stellar performance, the ace pacer opened up. It said that while the conditions at Chattogram were challenging for bowlers, the squad kept together. Carried out their strategy, and, most importantly, bowled appropriately for the circumstances. He also noted that one of the strategies for success these days is for bowlers to quickly adapt to the circumstances.

“They needed 104 runs from eight overs in favorable conditions, and the ball was coming onto the bat. It was slightly wet out there too. But we didn’t relax till the last over. We stuck to the process. We focused on the execution, whatever the situation demanded. It is our responsibility to adjust to the wicket. We are assessing the conditions and adjusting ourselves to the behavior of the wicket. It is part of the learning process. If we can execute properly, we can bowl better.”

Taskin said at the post-match press conference, as quoted by ESPNcricinfo

Bangladesh’s Bowling Attack

The sportsman continued by saying that he thought the Bangla Tigers were headed in the right direction. And that the bowlers were working hard to advance. The speedster also wants his team to have four to five elite bowlers and a world-class bowling unit, as this will make it more difficult for the opposition to handle them.

“If we can all become world-class bowlers, it will be tough for the opponents to handle us. Big teams have four or five world-class fast bowlers. We want the same thing. We have treated it like a family, the bowling unit, and have been helping each other for the last two and a half years. We are improving, but we are still to reach the next level. I believe we are on the right track.”
