Didn't give much room while bowling: Taijul
||CF Correspondent||
Bangladesh left-arm spinner Taijul Islam said that he just tried not to give away much room against the Zimbabweans and it proved to be dividend.
The left-arm spinner wrecked through the Zimbabwean tail as he added four wickets on the second morning that helped the hosts dismiss their opponent for 282 runs after they resumed the day at 236/5.
“Naturally it brings good feeling to grab five wickets because that is not something that happens every now and then.
“It was flat wicket and the ball was coming slowly. So I opted not to give away too much room outside the off-stump and just concentrate on bowling in the right area,” Taijul said after the match.
Taijul certainly hogged the spotlight through his perseverance that helped him earn his fourth five-wicket haul in 20 Test matches while his persistence paid off with figures of 6 for 108.
Though the disastrous batting approach took away all the limelight from him as the host were trailing by 140 at the end of the second day after being bundled out for 143 runs.
