Bangladesh vs India: Allan Donald confident of skipper Sakib Al Hasan’s availability in bowling department

Bangladesh vs India: On the eve of the second Test match between India and Bangladesh, hosts bowling coach Allan Donald has stated that skipper Sakib Al Hasan will be available to bowl in the final Test at Dhaka.

“Shakib is okay, he will bowl. He was bruised and battered in the one-day game here, but he has gone through that. He is available for selection, and available to bowl,” he said in the pre-match press conference.

Donald added that in place of injured Ebadot Hossain, Taskin Ahmed will be taking his place in the playing eleven. “It will be the same three spinners and welcoming back Taskin. Khaled as well. Sorry to the selectors but I am talking out of the room a little bit. That’s what I can see happening.”

“Good news is that Shakib is good to go. Looking at the pitch, I think he will very much come into play. Taskin is good to go. He wanted to play the last Test but he was very much short of a gallop in terms of rhythm. The build-up in the last Test was crucial for him. He is looking forward to the contest.”

Indian bowlers on top

India won the first Test by 188 runs. Indian bowlers had ripped the Bangladesh batting in both innings. The hosts were bundled at 150 in the first innings while they fought a bit hard to score 324 in the second innings in the chase of 513 runs.

Kuldeep Yadav was the pick of the Indian bowlers in the second Test with his eight-wicket haul. While Shubhman Gill and Cheteshwar Pujara scored hundreds for India in the second innings.
