Mominul Haque departed for a six-ball duck in the opening day of Bangladesh’s second Test against West Indies yesterday and in the process also registered an ignominious record.
The draft for the 11th edition of the Bangladesh Premier League was completed on Monday as all seven teams had a busy day trying to sign their desired players to make the best possible side to clinch the tournament which starts on December 27.
As someone who has often struggled for consistency, Mominul applied himself better than the rest of the Bangladesh batters.
“In Tests, we see different scenarios. How the game went today, it was like in T20s,” Bangladesh all-rounder Mehedi Hasan Miraz encapsulated what transpired in India’s first innings on day four of the second and final Test at Green Park Stadium in Kanpur yesterday.
Mansur Ali Khan Pataudi, one of India’s greatest, was the last captain to win a toss and elect to bowl in a Kanpur Test. Pataudi opted to take the field against England in 1964. No team since then opted to bowl first in Kanpur that is until current India skipper Rohit Sharma in the ongoing second Test against Bangladesh.
Bangladesh batter Mominul Haque stepped into a challenging situation after opener Zakir Hasan perished following a 24-ball duck, with Jasprit Bumrah leading the Indian attack and keeping a tight grip on the Bangladesh innings on the opening day of the second and final Test in Kanpur yesterday. As Mominul faced 14 deliveries without scoring, there was anxiety perhaps creeping in.
Bangladesh’s Test win at Mount Maunganui against the then World Test champions New Zealand in 2022 would certainly go down as a historic achievement in the Tigers’ history. But even Mominul Haque, the Tigers’ skipper back then, believes that winning a series away from home evokes a very different kind of feeling within the team than what a one-off win produces.
If going against the grain is a sought-after trait when achieving a backs-to-the-wall turnaround, Liton mythically overcame his performance issues in Rawalpindi.
Bangladesh Cricket Board announced separate squads for its forthcoming Pakistan tour.

The national team stars, who are not playing franchise cricket outside the country, will join Bangladesh Tigers or partake in individual sessions following their break as per team management’s plans as the focus shifts back to red-ball cricket with the two-Test tour to Pakistan in August coming up.
