Nazmul goes through VDO sessions

Bangladesh batsman Nazmul Hossain is trying to correct his batting through watching his innings during the lockdown.

Re-watching the highlights reel was not just a way of relieving sweet memories for Nazmul as he is trying to analyze his mistakes.

Having played only four Tests, five ODIs and two T20Is since his international debut in January, 2017, Nazmul was enjoying seemingly the best time of his career so far after a successful BPL and domestic career that was followed by some promising sparks in the international arena.

"I have watched the two innings that I played against Pakistan [in the Rawalpindi Test in February]. Also, I watched the T20 century I scored [For Khulna Tigers against Dhaka Platoon in the last BPL]," Nazmul was quoted in an English daily.

"I have not made many big scores. So, I was just trying to see how I played shots and what I did during my maiden T20 century. But I watched the highlights of the Pakistan game more. Everyone knows how formidable Pakistan's bowling line-up is. So, I watch how I survived during that game. I realised that I should have scored at least a century in that game. I was actually wondering what I could have done to handle the deliveries better and was just trying to understand what I should do when I get similar chances in the future," he said.

Nazmul, who is regarded as a Test potential said that he is taking lessons from some historical Test innings.

"During this break, I watched highlights of Bangladesh's maiden Test and also a few Ashes games. I have watched Brian Lara's Test 400 a number of times. It is not easy to score 400 in a game. I was looking at the types of shots he played. Aside from this, I also watched Tamim Iqbal and Imrul Kayes's record opening Test stand for the country when they put on 312 against Pakistan in the second innings [in 2015]. Actually, I have been trying to watch the matches that had some incredible knocks. A lot can be learned from these types of games," said Nazmul.
