Aiden Markram gave a big statement

After winning this match played at Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Dhaka, Aiden Markram was quoted by Cricbuzz during the post match as saying – Really good performance by the team, it is incredible for the team to perform well here for four days. It is physically difficult. The bowlers did well from the front and some good partnerships with the bat helped us get a good lead.

Credit also goes to Bangladesh, they batted well and scored well. It was really good to lose the toss, we would have batted as well. The bowlers bowled really well and did the job for us. I think that’s what happens in the subcontinent, you keep losing wickets.

Bangladesh also bowled well, there were some good things for us in the first innings as well as in the second innings. It’s very enjoyable, Kagiso Rabada has been doing this for a really long time. It’s great for Kyle to come in and step up. A century is a special thing for Vereen and he batted well in subcontinent conditions.
