Bangladesh pace bowler Mustafizur Rahman has revealed that he does not like to be dropped from the team in any format of the games.
Dropping from the team what Rahman said he considers it as a punishment for him because he wants to play irrespective of format of games?
“I like to play all kinds of cricket,” Mustfizur Rahman was quoted in a Bengali online news portal who played 13 Tests beside 58 ODIs and 41 T20s after stepping into international cricket in 2015.
“I feel bad when I’m out of the team whether it’s an ODI or Test because I’m used to playing,” Rahman told a leading online Bangla website.
“Staying out of the game is like a punishment for me. I’m trying to play well in Test,” he added.
Mustafizur is the leading wicket-taker in the white-ball cricket but he could not establish himself yet as a regular force in the Test team especially after his ill-fated and shape-changing surgical operation.
The new management did not get down play him in any match of the Test series when he was in the team for the India Test series.
With new fast bowling coach Ottis Gibson Mustfizur was working on bowling with the new ball but his work did not precede much due to the ongoing Covid-19 Pandemic, which enforced all types of cricketing competitions across the world.
The left-arm pace bowler said that he has to go a long way to be successful in his expected way.
“Before Gibson’s arrival, I was trying to figure out how to bowl with the new bowl, how to be successful. I worked for a while after Gibson came. I think I have come a long way,” the 24-year-old pacer said.
“Due to corona, I went backward. I have to practice again and bring it again,” the paceman concluded.
