After taking part in his first training camp with the Bangladesh cricket team, Mahedi Hasan Junior was a happy man. The 23-year-old had a great outing in the Bangladesh Premier League and, as a result, was one of the players in the 32-man probable list.

When asked about how his morning was, he claimed that he was excited as he could possibly be and that the experience of sharing the dressing room was unique.

“The morning was interesting since this was my first training camp,” he told reporters.

“From the breakfast in the morning to the experience of sharing the dressing room—it was something different.”

He then went on to reveal the confusion about the chairs in the dressing room, suggesting that he was clueless about where to sit in the beginning. 

"Everyone were sitting in their own respective chairs, but I couldn’t understand where I should sit. Whichever seat I chose, it was already ordained for someone else. So I got a little nervous because of that.

"I kept standing for a long time. Some of my team-mates told me that this happens in the beginning, but it will become normal after a while."

Mahedi was also very confident and claimed that everyone would give it their best shot to play for the nation.

"Of course, I am confident. No matter who ends up in the final squad, all of them will give their best. If I have to give more than 100%, I will do that."

Mahedi Hasan rocked the BPL with both his bat and the ball. When asked about his preference, he insisted that he is an all-rounder. However, he also believes that he is a man that focuses on the matter in hand rather than stepping on many boats at once.
