Only Gaul is an exception. But that was the first. Mushfiqur Rahim has three double centuries next to his name. The first one melts and cuts two hundred. The latter was an unbeaten 219 against Zimbabwe in 2018. Two years later again against the same opponent 203*. The 2024 Rawalpindi Test could have been added to that list. Not only for 9 runs. The little master of Bangladesh played an epic innings of 191 runs against Pakistan.
Bangladesh won both of Mushfiqur’s three double centuries. A draw. This time Mushfiqur did not get a double century but his brilliant 191 runs made Bangladesh fly the flag of victory for the first time on Pakistan soil. Mushfiqur has forgotten the regret of the double century miss in the victory of the team. Mushfiq is a shining example of hard work, honesty, dedication, concentration. Be the first to practice. work hard There are many examples of these last. What Mushfiqur did before this Test will definitely be an example.
When the national team cricketers are on vacation, Mushfiq joins the camp of Bengal Tigers and practices continuously. Then flew to Pakistan with Bangladesh ‘A’ team. The Bengal Tigers camp and tour for the ‘A’ team boosted his confidence. Got more time to adapt to the conditions. Understand the condition of Pakistan’s bowlers. Taito has managed to paint an innings of 191 runs at 22 yards. Mushfiq talked about hard work and concentration on the man of the match award.
Mushfiq said on the award distribution stage, ‘Alhamdulillah. Thank God. Honestly, it’s one of our best performances so far. As you also said, we have not done much good in foreign soil. Our goal as a team was to collectively perform in such a way that everyone could see we had improved. Our batting has improved. Especially on foreign soil.’
‘Don’t just give me credit for this. I think the boys have prepared themselves the way they have for this Test, coming to Pakistan and on home soil. I was very happy. I got all kinds of support. I want to say two things about myself. There was a gap of two, two and a half months, right? So the Bengal Tigers Camp was organized on the country’s soil. Where local coaches have prepared the boys. It was really beneficial for the preparation of all the players. Especially Test cricketers. The rest were busy with the T20 World Cup. That’s why it was beneficial. The conditions there are almost the same.’ – added Mushfiq.
37 Perono Mushfiq played 89 Tests. He has the chance to become the first cricketer of the country to play 100th Test. Only time will tell where Mushfiqur will take himself with the second highest 11 centuries. His name is at the top of all cricketers who have continued international cricket for a long time. However, Mushfiq does not evaluate himself that way. Still find the pride of playing for the country.
“I never think I’m the oldest in the team or I’m the most experienced. Because when I join this team we get another Test opportunity for the country and I just try to give my hundred percent and that too on the field. I contribute to the team and am inspired by the rest of the team. That is exactly why I am standing here today. My concentration has brought me here.’
