Bangladesh Under-19’s left-arm medium-pace bowler Mrittunjoy Chowdhury said on Monday that they are eyeing to keep their winning momentum as they are preparing to take on unknown Scotland in their second game of the ongoing ICC Under-19 World Cup in South Africa.

In the rain-interrupted first match, Bangladesh beat Zimbabwe by nine wickets to start their campaign on the right note.

While Bangladesh registered their first win in the first match, Scotland suffered a seven-wicket defeat against Pakistan but according to Mrittunjoy, they are making sure that they are well aware about the strength of the Scottish team.

Every time we play we only aim to win,’ Mrittunjoy told reporters ahead of their second game of the group phase.

‘’We played well in the last match against Zimbabwe and we will try to continue that winning streak,’’ he said.

‘’We have not played them[ Scotland] before but yesterday saw their batting in the ICC  website. They did not play well and we are very hopeful we will do well against them,’’ he said

‘’It is a good feeling after winning the first match. The first win was good for us and more so because everybody performed well for us,’’ he said.

In the first game, Bangladesh needed to score 130 runs in 22 overs after the rain halted the game. Zimbabwe batted first after losing the toss and scored 137 for six in 28.1 overs.

Bangladesh chased down the target in 11.2 overs with an aggressive batting from Tanzid Hasan (32 off 10 balls with 3 fours and 3 sixes), Parvez Hossain Emon (58* off 33 balls with 5 fours and 3 sixes) and Mahmudul Hasan Joy (38* off 26 with 5 fours)
