By India Today Web Desk: Fast bowler Taskin Ahmed stated that he hoped to take a hat-trick in Bangladesh’s T20 World Cup 2022 Super 12 match in opposition to the Netherlands on Monday, October 24. At the Bellerive Oval in Hobart, Taskin turned the Player of the Match after the Tigers secured a vital nine-wicket victory within the multi-nation mega occasion.
Taskin dismissed Vikramjit Singh and Bas de Leede off consecutive deliveries within the first two balls of the Dutch staff’s run-chase. The younger speedster completed with figures of 4-0-25-0 and helped Bangladesh defend 144.
“I did expect it [hat-trick], but I bowled the delivery in the same process. Hat-trick and five-wicket hauls need a bit of luck,” Taskin was quoted as saying within the post-match press convention.
Apart from Taskin, Hasan Mahmud and Mustafizur Rahman additionally performed their roles with precision. While Mahmud received the wickets of Tim Pringle and Logan van Beek and bowled at an financial system price of three.75, Mustafizur Rahman completed with figures of 4-0-20-3.
Taskin talked about that hitting the laborious lengths on a constant foundation helped the Bangladesh quick bowlers to a big extent.
“Length balls, back-of-length balls on a hard length and bouncers were working on today’s wicket. Length ball was probably the most effective. Hasan (Mahmud) and I tried a few yorkers, but we were strict on the length ball as we were getting a bit of bounce off it,” he said.
“I stuck to the normal mindset. I got the ball to move off a length in the first two balls, so I tried the same for the third ball. I wasn’t trying to be too greedy, lest I got hit for a four. I tried to be disciplined,” Taskin added.
Bangladesh’s subsequent match is in opposition to Temba Bavuma’s South Africa on Thursday, October 27 on the Sydney Cricket Ground.
