Bangladesh fast bowling all-rounder Mohammad Saifuddin thinks that anyone can do well in any wicket even in any condition as Bangladesh depart for New Zealand on Tuesday for three ODIs and three T20s. It is always difficult to do well as an opponent in New Zealand soil compared to other countries. This is especially difficult for those who play from the subcontinent.
"Of course, if you bowl well in any condition, you can do well in any wicket. If you don’t bowl in line and length it will be bad, it’s normal. I will try to give my basic whatever happens." Saifuddin told the media.
Although Saifuddin did well in bowling, he still could not spark with the bat. Although he didn't pay much attention to batting, he is very serious about bowling. "Yes, of course, bowling is my first skill, so I'm more serious about it, I hope to do well" he said.
