Donald said that we have done very well in this series against Virat and Rahul.
Bangladesh bowling coach Allan Donald says Bangladesh bowlers have been able to keep Indian star Virat Kohli calm in the ongoing series and will expect them to continue the same form in the second Test starting here on Thursday. Left-arm spinner Taijul Islam dismissed Kohli with a beautiful delivery in the first innings of the first Test in Chittagong, while the former India captain remained unbeaten on 19 in the second innings. Stand-in captain KL Rahul also had a tough time in the first Test.
“His wickets are very important, bowling to him is like bowling to Sachin Tendulkar,” Donald told reporters on the eve of the second Test. When a player like him comes to the crease, it is very important to get everything right. “He said,” So when great player Virat Kohli comes to the crease and if you miss your chance against him, you will have to pay because such players do not give you many chances after that.
I think we have bowled very well against him (Virat) and KL (Rahul) and hope that continues. Virat is hungry to score runs, he wants to end the series with a century. Donald also said that Bangladesh captain Shakib Al Hasan is fit to bowl in the second and final Test. He was unable to bowl in the second innings in Chittagong due to a rib injury. The great South African fast bowler said, “Shakib is fine, he will bowl.He got injured in the ODI here but has recovered now. He is available for selection and available to bowl. ,
He also said that fast bowler Taskin Ahmed will play in the second Test. He said, “Taskin is ready to play. He wanted to play in the final Test but he was a little short in terms of rhythm. Preparation was important for him in the last Test. He is ready to compete. The pitch is expected to be more supportive of the spinners due to which Bangladesh are expected to field the same bowling combination. India had registered an easy win by 188 runs in the first test.
