Afghanistan opener Ibrahim Zadran said on Friday that his stint with Afghanistan A helped him prepare well in the one-match Test series against Bangladesh.


Zadran scored a brilliant 87 to help his side being placed comfortably after the end of the third day as they have taken an huge lead of 374 runs.


Zadran scored highest 209 runs in the recently concluded four-day games that includes an impressive average of 104.50 and more importantly helped them earn a 1-0 win in the two-match.
‘’Having played in Bangladesh a month ago, I had information about the conditions here. This is why I played well,’’ said Zadran. “We had a good camp in Abu Dhabi, as well as the two-day match in Chattogram. So with good preparation and the result from that game, we were hopeful of playing well,’’ he added.


Zadran said that their aim is to get 400 runs lead as he feel it will be difficult for the host to achieve it in the fourth innings.

“Our aim is to get a 400-plus lead. We are just 30-40 runs short, so it will not be easy for Bangladesh to achieve it,’’ said Zadran.


‘’We will try to bat 10-15 more overs tomorrow, by which time we can give them a 400-plus target. It won’t be easy for them,’ he said.


Zadran added that they are hopeful that they can bowled out the host compared the wicket is not behaving nicely.


“It was hard to play on the wicket today, compared to the previous two days. It wasn’t easy, though I tried to stay in the wicket, and tried to play responsibly,’’ said  Zadran.


“They played only 64 overs in the first innings so we hope to get them out again as well,’’ he said.



“We cannot say anything about the weather but definitely the conditions are changing. It is raining sometimes, and it is cloudy at times,’’ he said.


“We feel we are 70% hopeful of winning the game,’’ he added.
