Top-order batsman Imrul Kayes seeks a batting-friendly track yesterday in the one-off Test match in the forthcoming home series against India and said that there are advantages for both teams in this sort of wicket.
“Not only I but also everybody expects that wicket in Bangladesh will be batting-friendly. Both teams can do well if the wicket is batting-friendly. In this wicket, there is more possibility for a draw in the Test,” said Imrul Kayes.    
Kayes also expressed his optimism to do well in the upcoming series and said that they are working on every area if they could execute it in the field as per their game plan they will win the match.
“If we could play our best cricket we will win the match. If we could not play good cricket then the fate of the match will not have in our hands. We have to first do our respective jobs properly then the result will come in favour of us,” Imrul said after their day’s practice session at Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium.
“We have been working on every department since the start of the practice. I think if we could implement our game plan in every ODI and Test then we could do well against India,” he added.
The top-order batsman said that he will play the Test against India with no fixed any goal as it create huge presume on him.
 “I always expect to play good cricket. But I never set a goal. I feel immense pressure if I set a goal while I bat. My best effort is to play good cricket. I’ll try to make adaptation with the wicket first and then try to play as per the condition,” he opines.      
“I’ve no such plan to be specialist over a pacific format. I’m now playing well in Test. I will try to fill up the lacking in one day cricket so that I could come back in ODI,” Kayes said, adding, “Actually every player has a bad day when he does well in Test but not in ODI. I earlier had done well in ODI but now I am doing it in Test. I think I will soon return in ODI.  
“I think such time in my life has not come yet. The way I play I will try to do it.”
Bangladesh have been practicing two session by rotation to hone up their batsmen and bowlers skills and techniques as the
next series against India is knocking at door.
“We’re actually practicing on both formats. Those who are in ODI squad are doing mixed batting. But those who are in Test squad are doing batting,” Meherpur-born batsman informs.
“Wicket is the identical. Those who are in Test squad have batted against pace in Indoor. But in center wicket we have batted against spin. In this way we have been batting.”
