Bangladesh opener Shadman Islam said on Tuesday that they are taking inspiration from the second innings of the opening Test as it makes them confident of making a turnaround.

Bangladesh lost the opening Test by an innings and 52 runs but that hardly takes away anything from the fact they had really given the host some torrid time in the middle courtesy Mahmudullah and Soumya Sarkar’s brilliant century.

“The way we came back in the second innings, hopefully, we will continue to do the same in the next test,’’ Shadman told reporters on Tuesday.

“Wellington’s wicket is going to be different than Hamilton. Obviously, we are mentally well prepared. Hopefully, we will do well,’’ he said.

“Wind will be there and it’s natural. I don’t think it’s going to be a problem…only if we play normally. If we let this wind issue get into our head, then it might be a problem. I think we shouldn’t think about it too much,’’ he added.

Shadman said that he is not willing to change his game as he believes the way he is approaching the innings don’t need to be altered rather if he can stick to his basic it will surely prove to be the dividend.

“I thought I will play my natural game. The way I usually plan my innings, I will follow that. If I get set in the next match, I will try to make it big,’’ said Shadman.
