Hathurusingha tried to explain the different personalities in the dressing room and a few of the glaring traits his players have in a video posted on Saturday by Bangladesh Cricket Board's official Facebook page. 

While talking about Shoriful, he praised his tenacity to go wickets but also pointed out that the left-arm pacer has the tendency to forget instructions quickly and likened him to a goldfish.

"He is very talented and a mature enforcer in the team. He only knows one way which is to take wickets. He is very task-oriented. He is like a goldfish sometimes, and forgets things very quickly. I think he is always very confident. He is a good fielder and can contribute with the bat. I don't think he knows how far he can go with the bat."
