| Mustafiz Bhai enjoys IPL from Bangladesh: Shariful |
Mostafizur Rahman is very effective with the ball in the current IPL. He is a terror to the batsmen with his speed, bounce and cutter velocity. But Biburn was the master of that cut against Sri Lanka a few days ago. Pacer Shariful Islam demands that Phiz can give his best as there is no extra pressure.
Bowlers often have to be under pressure when bowling against devastating batsmen in the IPL. Mustafizur Rahman is definitely not going to be different. But Shariful Islam's claim is a little different. According to this left-handed pacer, 'Fiz' is under more pressure while playing for Bangladesh than in the IPL.
Speaking to the media in Mirpur after the Dhaka Premier League match against Prime Bank at the Sher Bangla National Cricket Stadium on Monday, Shariful said, "I watch every ball of Mustafiz Bhai and talk about it the next day after the match." I think Mustafiz bhai enjoys better IPL from Bangladesh. Because the pressure there is very low. There may be a lot of demand in Bangladesh, if it is a little bad, there will be a lot of pressure.
Praising Mustafiz's performance in the jersey of Chennai Super Kings in this edition of IPL, Shariful also said, "He is performing consistently, the last 2-3 matches may not have been as expected. The pressure is a bit high because he has been performing very well for the last few years. He is doing well, maybe he couldn't do it in two-one matches as everyone wanted.
The T20 World Cup is knocking at the door. In the fight for excellence, the pressure of expectation will be on Shariful. However, this pacer said to keep the good form without paying attention to that. Shariful said, the challenge is increasing. But I'm not thinking about that. I am thinking to continue the way I am doing, if I stay healthy inshallah.
Best of two matches in a row; 10 wickets in 4 matches. So Shariful Islam is very happy with this performance in DPL. Besides, he thinks that the pacers' good form will play a positive role in this season.
