Bangladesh middle-order batter Towhid Hridoy has espressed how he trusts the pitch to go slow in the opening match of the T20 against India.
Both teams will be entering unknown territory as the Shrimant Madhavaro Stadium will be hosting it's first international match on October 6. 'T20 is a game of runs, every team want to score runs. But no international match has happened here, it is a new venue. We don't know what will be the condition.' said Hridoy. Bangladesh had their third practice session here on Saturday and Hridoy then spoke about his assumption for the pitch for the game. 'Looking at the practice wicket, I feel it is a slow pitch.
In such wickets having a high scoring game is very less. No IPL match has also happened here
,' he said. Hridoy also said that the team is here to win the series, even though they will miss the support of champion all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan as he recently retired from T20 and Test cricket. 'Pressure is always there, but if we think about that then we will not be able to perform well, our focus is always on process and how to perform.
Shakib bhai is not there, we will miss him but everyone has to go one day, we are hopeful we will be able to beat them
,' he concluded.
