Currently ranked 10th in the ICC ODI rankings -- their lowest position in two decades -- Bangladesh are in need of a turnaround, and Miraz hopes the team can rise from this slump and see the Tigers transform into a settled ODI side within a year.
That Bangladesh did not lose way after the initial opening partnership had developed was important from the perspective of the brand of cricket that team wants to play.
As I mentally prepared to leave the stadium last night, I saw Miraz continue to play with a deftness and an attitude that I wish could be formalised and replicated by all eleven team members.
Mehedi is still only 19-years-old, but he had already made a mark and had made a habit of punching above his weight.
