Tamim Iqbal: It looks like a similar wicket and there was some turn in the evening in the first ODI and something for the fast bowlers as well. We played ok last game, those 60s-70s were key because sometimes wickets fall and some players take responsibility which makes it easier. It’s extremely hot here. We’re giving Taskin a break, Shoriful gets a debut, and Mosaddek coming in place of Mithun.
Kusal Perera: Yeah, it’s a must-win but we’re not putting too much pressure, our bowlers did well the other day. Our top order is also trying to back their strengths and execute their plans.
