Bangladeshi bowlers to watch out for in 4th ODI
The 3rd game of the 5 match ODI series between Bangladesh and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/New-Zealand-c754 didn’t prove to be a close contest. Every cricket follower in the Universe anticipated a one sided battle in favour of Kiwis.
Against all odds, Bangladesh, who had won the first ODI, came into the 3rd ODI with great energy and confidence to surprise their opponents. As a result, in a Bangladesh dominated affair of cricket at Mirpur, Bengali Tigers trounced Kiwis by 7 wickets.
The 3rd ODI between, two enemies at Shere Bangla stadium proved to be a battle between energetic Bangladeshi’s and a depleted Kiwi side.
Bangladesh took an unassailable lead of 2-0 in the 3rd match of series, devastating their opposition by 7 wickets at Mirpur. Add to this, it is the first time in their short history that they have beaten a top quality side in consecutive ODIs.
Moreover, their trio of spinners became the nemesis of Kiwi batsmen with their mean spin bowling. They kept on, taking wickets and controlling the flow of runs. As a result, the Bangladeshi batsmen did not disappoint, chasing down a modest score of 173 runs in only 40 overs.
Mainly, it was Bangladeshi bowlers, who took the advantage of helpful conditions and made sure that their batsman did not have to chase a huge total. As expected, the spinners became a thorn in the side of Kiwi batsmen and restricted the tourists to a low score.
So we have to discuss their main bowlers, who can be threatening in the fourth ODI.
Suhrawadi Shuvo
Suhrawadi is in the mould of Daniel Vettori. As he is also a left arm slow bowler and a quality late order batsman. Add to this, he is another one of Bangladesh’s never ending battery of left arm spinners. He hasn’t player much cricket as he has been a recent inclusion in their squad.
Shuvo has played 33 first class matches before making his debut, striking 166 times at an average of 20 with a best of 6/71. In addition, his lower order batting has shown some glimpses of his talent with the bat. He has scored 1126 runs at an average of 28 with a best of 151.
The left arm spinner made his debut against England in 2010 at Mirpur. He didn’t have to do much as he just scored an unbeaten 14 runs off 6 balls in a total of 260, and bowled three overs for 14 runs. So talent was pretty much there.
In the recently concluded 3rd ODI between New Zealand and Bangladesh, the left armer came of age as he showed his full potential with the ball. As a result, the left-arm slow bowler took 3 wickets in his quota of 10 overs, giving away only 14 runs.
His performance with the ball kept Kiwi batsmen quiet as only Ross http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Taylor-c92915 managed a score of substance.
Shuvo poses a great threat to his opponents in the upcoming fourth ODI. So, New Zealand will be well aware of their tormentor in the 3rd ODI.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Rubel-Hossain-c2378
Rubel is the fastest bowler in the current Bangladesh squad. Mainly, he was picked to play for http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Bangladesh-c747 on his ability to surprise the batsmen with his pace and bounce. He was discovered in a pace hunt competition, where he was the fastest bowler as he topped the speed gun. For a start, he made an immediate impact.
On his debut match against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sri-Lanka-c758, he surprised top quality Sri Lankan Batsman with his pace and ended up with the figures of 4/33. Since, then he hasn’t lived up to his full potential.
Moreover, he has been a part of 19 ODIs, hunting just 20 victims at an average of 42 with an economy rate of 6.12. In the 3rd ODI he didn’t look bad as he took 1/39 in his eight overs.
The right arm quick bowler will be eyeing the fourth ODI to prove his potential with a quality spell of bowling. If he fires, then Bangladesh have a great chance of securing a series win against New Zealand.
