Nayeem Hasan on Bangladesh's Strategy
Nayeem Hasan, Bangladesh offspinner, revealed that changing the seam position and bowling consistently in one area were key to his success on Day 4 of the first Test against Sri Lanka in Galle.
Nayeem's Game Plan
- Tried to bowl in one good spot and adjust variation
- Changed seam position from time to time
- Line depended on who he was bowling to
- Had different plans for each batter
Bangladesh's Position
- Ended the day with an overall lead of 187 runs, with seven wickets in hand
- Nayeem believes they have every opportunity to go for the win once they have a good total on board
- A lot of things can happen on the fifth day wicket, and Bangladesh want to give Sri Lanka a good target to put them under pressure
Kamindu Mendis on Sri Lanka's Chances
- Sri Lanka's first target is to get Bangladesh's wickets
