Shoriful elated to learn so many things from seniors
DHAKA, Oct 18, 2020 (BSS) – Shoriful Islam, the member of the World Champion Under-19 team, expressed his contentment to share the dressing room with senior players, stating that he has been learning so many things from them, which enriches him in many ways.
“Sharing the dressing room with senior players is a learning curve. I have been learning so many things from them which enriched my experience,” he said here on Sunday.
As a part of Tamim XI in the ongoing BCB President’s Cup, Shoriful’s performance has been superb and impressed many. He has already been dubbed as the future prospect of Bangladesh cricket after grabbing 4-37 against Nazmul XI in the previous match.
His performance earned him the man of the match award, which was a special recognition given the Tamim XI was bolstered with the bowlers like Mustafizur Rahman, Saifuddin and others.
Mustafizur Rahman also snapped up 3-15 in a measly bowling show but Shoriful gave breakthroughs in vital moments to help the side win the game.
Shoriful, however, credited the senior players for his superb performance, saying that they are always ready to help him.
“The senior players have been very nice to me. I have always come up with many questions and they answered with great patience. My questions don’t irritate them, rather they are ready to help me always,” he added.
“Tamim bhai has been helping me always. He is talking to me and always charges me up. During bowling, he gave me many tips and helped me understand the psychology of the batsmen. Off the field, he is taking care of me. I’m very grateful to those people,” he remarked.
At the same time, Shoriful said senior bowlers like Mustafizur Rahman, Saifuddin had already given him various tips to hone his bowling skill.
“To share a dressing room with Mustafizur and Saifuddin also is very helpful for me since I am a pacer. Mustafizur bhai and Saifuddin bhai have been giving me many tips of bowling. They are inspiring me as well,” he concluded.
