Bangladesh Hope To Do 'special Things' Against Pakistan, Says Captain Najmul Hossain
Najmul Hossain Shanto: Bangladesh captain Najmul Hossain Shanto believes that his team can pull out some "special things" against Pakistan in the two-match Test series and change their dismal record against the opponents. Bangladesh have never defeated Pakistan in a Test match. In the 13 Tests against Pakistan, the visitors have drawn one and lost 12. In the World Test Championship standings, Bangladesh are currently in the eighth position.
"No (pressure). It's record, (and) record can be changed. It's not going to be easy, but as I said we have a balanced side. We believe we can do some special things this time. Players are really excited to play here," Cricbuzz quoted Najmul as saying on Tuesday.
"I feel we had a good series against New Zealand but we didn't play well against Sri Lanka. We have a good opportunity this time against Pakistan and I hope we'll play good cricket here," he added.
