The top-order batsman said this is the first time he is training with Shakib Al Hasan, Tamim Iqbal, Mushfiqur Rahim and Mahmudullah Riyad. He had never met one of them before. This cricketer from Chittagong is learning something from everyone day by day. Rabbi is especially inspired by the way Shakib Tamim are still working so hard and playing successfully in international cricket.

"Especially the way Tamim Bhai and Shakib Bhai abide by the rules, I always talk to them about how you always keep yourself ready. Now, in fact, the game becomes very difficult if you do not prepare yourself in that way. So I am trying to take good things from everyone.” Yasir said in a video message, sent by the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB).
