Khulna Tigers young leg spinner Aminul Islam Biplob said on Thursday that he is eyeing to add the arm ball in his repertoire and trying to follow the guidelines prepared by national team spin bowling coach Daniel Vettori in the ongoing Bangabandhu Bangladesh Premier League.

Biplob, the 20-year-old national team leg spinner, featured in both the games of Khulna in BBPL and considered to be one of the future prospects of the national team in the shorter format game.

“I am using the arm ball as a variation with leg spin,’’ Biplob told reporters at the MA Aziz Stadium in Chattogram on Thursday.

.“I am trying to do what I usually do. I am trying to apply those in the match that Vettori has shown and areas where we have worked. I am trying to apply those in the match,’’ he said.

‘’I am doing the arm-ball and the topspin apart from what I usually do,’’ he said.

Biplob added that the wicket at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium has always favored the batsmen that made it tough for the bowlers.

The leg spinner was a key in their opening match against Chattgoram claiming 1 wicket for 25 runs in four overs but proved mediocre, if not, then expensive giving away 30 runs in two overs.

“Every match is challenging for the leg spinners. Especially when we play in Chattogram because the wicket here favors the batsmen more,’’ said Biplob he said.

Biplob said that though he used to bowl leg spin from early days he focused on taking leg spin more seriously after his stint in the BCB High Performance Unit under the guidance of Simon Helmut.
