Shaheen Shah Afridi has returned to form in the previous game for Pakan, picking up a couple of early wickets. It is the batting that still has glaring holes in the line-up. Although the partnership between Hussain Talat and Mohammad Nawaz managed to save the day for Pakan, the top order has collapsed far too often for their liking, and they will be hoping to sort it out in the knockout game.

Bangladesh, on the other hand, has been quite efficient with their bowling in all the games, and once again, it is their batting which has let them down. Saif Hassan has been a bright spark in their batting unit who has held the innings in their famous win against Sri Lanka on Saturday, and then was quite superb in the chase against India yesterday. Bangladesh will be hoping that the opener will show his prowess yet again.

Bangladesh is known for its left-arm spinners so how did leggie Rishad Hossain emerge as a force?

Nilphamari nourishes indigo, not cricketers. The drict, where once the British tortured labourers to cultivate ‘Neel’, or blue gold, lies only 356 kilometres north of Dhaka. The journey, though, would take nearly eight hours, cutting through the congested traffic and sinuous roads. Ten kilometres from the drict centre is Nijpara, a dot in a speck, home of Bangladesh wr-spinner Rishad Hossain.
It is this geographic aloofness from the national and cricketing capital that nurtured the growth of the rarest cricketing specimen in the country, the leg-spinner. In a country fixated with left-arm spinners, only two specials leg-spinners have donned the colours of the country, Wahidul Gani and Jobair Hussain, before him. A part-time leg-spinner Alok Kapali grabbed a Test hat-trick, the first his countrymen, but leg-spin was the art of outliers in Bangladesh.
