Comilla Victorians batsman Tamim Iqbal said that he took a leaf out of Mashrafe Bin Mortaza’s book to remain calm as well as have the belief of winning the Bangladesh Premier League Cup.

Tamim’s incredible 141-run knock off just 61 deliveries, an innings that saw him become the first Bangladesh batsman this season to strike a ton helped his franchise to win the tournament for the second successive occasion.

“Truth be told I was very tense but I was using Mashrafe bhai’s tactics. He always says this ine thing that ‘I will win, I will win’. So, in this whole BPL my tactics was this. It was copied from him,’’ said Tamim.

‘’From day one I have been saying that no matter what we are winning. I was tense but I tried to infuse positive vibe within the team. They can’t read my mind but can hear what I am saying,” he said.

he dominating left-handed opener had the taste of successive ducks for the first time in his career before making sure he gets back into business with a bang against Titans as he made 35, 4 and 21 runs in his first three innings of the ongoing BPL season six before eventually shrugged off his poor form with a superb 42-ball 73-run against Titans and since then he never looked to be out of form at any point of the tournament.
