Nasir�s formula for scoring more runs in Dhaka wicket
Sports Reporter
While the bulk of players from all the franchisee teams are struggling to make runs in the ongoing BRB BPL, Dhaka Dynamites icon player Nasir Hossain invented a way out to make more runs from wickets in Dhaka and stated that players should try to be settled in wicket and then try to extend the innings.
The second match of the last fifth day was all the low-scoring affairs. It was grudged from all the corners blaming the trend of the wicket. But the notion has been proved wrong in the last match between Dhaka Dynamites and Sylhet Super Stars, where Dynamites put on 166 for six with Kumar Sangakkara scoring 75 and Nasirs 33. Even Super Stars scored 132 chasing the healthy target.
If anyone can think to take 60 from 30 balls it would be difficult in the wicket. It will not be easy to make more runs from less number of balls in this type of wicket. So, I think one should take some times after going at the crease and then try to stretch the innings gradually, said
Nasir Hossain.
In the first one-two matches, we have tried to put on 160-180 but wicket was not so easy to do that. Later we realised that 140 in this type of wicket is the fighting score. So we have tried to take 30 more runs in the first power-play. Then we plan if we could play ball-to-ball in the next 15 overs its possible to score 130-140, Hossain told media on Friday.
The all-rounder said that the way he plays will increase his confidence, which is required more for him ahead of the remaining matches of the tournament.
I didnt get enough times to bat on the stroke of the initial two-three matches. I got down in such a time when we had left two or three overs before the finish. But today (Friday) I got more time for batting. Ive tried to stretch the innings, he reckoned.
The way I bat today I am happy for it. I got the confidence what is needed for me to bat in this manner. I do bowl what the way I like most, he added.
When asked what he was talking with Sanga en route to sharing 66-run third wicket partnership, he said that how they can bat throughout the 15 overs.
Weve talked between us so that we could put on at least six runs per over. Along with that, we have planned to play till 15 overs. Nothing else, the 26-year-old Nasir said.
We had no plan to hit (Ravi) Bopara. I have some zones, where I go for cracking if I get any delivery here. It may be he likes and repeatedly bowls in these areas and so I hit him more.
It is aired that Dynamites pace sensation Mustafiz has been sustained injury.
But Nasir said that it is nothing serious.
