All-rounder Mehidy Hasan Miraz played a pivotal role for Bangladesh to seal a dominating win over Afghanistan in the third game of the World Cup on Saturday.
He got the Player of the Match award for his vital knock of 57 runs and important three wickets at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium, Dharamsala.
While talking to the broadcast media during the post-match presentation, Miraz did not make any mistake to thank skipper Shakib Al Hasan and the team management for believing in him.
He said, “I have always batted at number eight. So It is a great moment for me to bat at the top of the order. Credit goes to the team management because they believed in me. They tried me at the top of the order in the last few matches.”
“I was a bit cautious, the captain told me to bowl in the right areas. He told me to be consistent and to focus on my own performance. So credit to the captain, Miraz said.
