Shakib al hasan and Najmul Shanto (Image Credit- Twitter The first match of the ongoing two-match Test series between India and Bangladesh (IND vs BAN) was played at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. Let us tell you that in this match, the performance of former Bangladesh captain Shakib Al Hasan with the ball and bat was very disappointing. In the Chennai Test match, Shakib conceded 50 runs in 8 overs in the first innings and then 79 runs in 13 overs in the second innings. Apart from this, he could not do anything special with the bat as well and could score only 32 and 25 runs in both the innings. In the match, India achieved a big victory against Bangladesh by 280 runs. So Shakib Al Hasan has faced a lot of criticism after this mediocre performance. However, now a big statement from captain Nazmul Hussain Shanto has come out defending the former captain. Shanto says that Shakib is trying his best to regain his form. Nazmul Hussain Shanto defends Shakib Al Hasan After the first Test match between India and Bangladesh ended in Chennai, Shanto said- As a captain, I pay attention to how hard a player is working on his game. Shakib is trying his best to get back in form. Our fast bowlers were doing a great job and Mehdi Hasan Miraz was also bowling well. We took six wickets early, so I didn’t feel the need to use Shakib too much. However, now it will be interesting to see how Shakib will perform in the second Test match to be held at Green Park Stadium in Kanpur from September 27. If Bangladesh has to challenge a strong team like India during this Test series, then Shakib will have to perform better with the ball and bat.

Meanwhile, before the first Test match, Bangladeshi captain Nazmul Hussain Shanto said that Bangladesh will enter the field with the intention of winning. Let us tell you that recently Bangladesh team defeated Pakistan in a two match test series on their home ground. In such a situation, their confidence will be sky high. However, it will not be easy for Bangladesh to defeat Team India in India. In fact, since 2012, the Indian team has not lost a home series. In the pre-press conference before leaving for India, Nazmul Hussain Shanto admitted that Team India is above Bangladesh in the rankings, but our aim is to play well for five days. We want to play well for five days, that is our goal – Nazmul Hussain Shanto Shanto said, “They are way ahead of us in the rankings. But we have played well recently. We want to play well for five days, that is our goal. We want a result in the last session of the Test match. At that time the match can go in any direction. This is a chance (to get our first win in India). But we do not want to think too far ahead.” The Bangladeshi captain further said that, this will be a challenging series but the Pakistan series has given us extra confidence. I think the whole country has this confidence now. Every series is an opportunity. We want to win both the Tests, but we have to stick to our process. If we do our job, we can get good results. Talking about the team’s bowling unit, Shanto said, “We are in a good position with our bowling attack, both spin and pace. Maybe our fast bowlers are behind them in terms of experience, but our spin attack is close to them. They can bowl in any conditions. All I can say is that our fast bowlers, spinners and batsmen will give 100%. I think we can make a difference only when we play as a team.”
