We will play for the win, says Taskin
Bangladesh pacer Taskin Ahmed appeared confident of his side's chances to carry the winning momentum into the second and final Test match of the series against New Zealand in Christchurch.
The Tigers trained at the Hagley Oval today, where the Test match will be underway tomorrow at BST 04:00am.
Taskin, whose intense spells of fast bowling played a key role in the historic Test win for the Tigers in Mount Maunganui, informed the media about the state of his side after the final training session through a video message today.
"Weather wise, it's a bit different here [compared to Mount Maunganui] with the weather being chillier and the wind being strong but we tried to adapt to the conditions as much as we could during training today.
"The rain did not allow us to train yesterday but we still had a good team session. However, today the training session went really well," informed Taskin, who is right up there as one of the most improved players in the squad.
"Overall, we all are in a good state, mentality and preparation wise, by the grace of almighty Allah. We will give our best and of course, play for the win," said the right-arm fast bowler as he concluded by asking for support and prayers for the Tigers so they can perform at their best.
