After the match, captain Nurul also named both of them, "Mosaddek set the tone in bowling, Liton did the same in batting. Overall, a great performance."
Before this match, Mosaddek had 7 wickets in T20 cricket. He was used as an irregular bowler in international cricket. However, Mosaddek has objections to considering himself an 'irregular bowler'. He said the same thing in the post-match press conference, 'When I bowl, I never think that I am an irregular bowler. When bowling, I always try to take the responsibility of a regular bowler.'
There is a plan behind any success. Mosaddek also shared his plan before bowling today, 'If you look at the wicket, I won't say that it was very helpful for the bowlers. Of course, the wicket was very good. The captain gave me the ball and told me to prevent runs.'
While bowling to stop that run, he bowled the second best in T20Is for Bangladesh. This is Mosaddek's first five-wicket haul not only in international cricket but also in recognised cricket. Although he did not want to make a big deal of it, he said, 'I did not bowl with anything in mind. I bowled the ball in a good place, that's why I was successful.'
Mosaddek had put a lot of work ahead, but it still had to be finished. Like Nurul Hasan, Mosaddek also supposedly gave the main credit for the successful run chase to Liton, 'Be it the first match or this match, Liton is giving us a good start every day. It is very good for our team, whatever needs to be done to chase runs in a match, Liton is doing for us. Towards the end, Shanto (Nazmul Hossain) and Afif (Afif Hossain) showed their maturity.'
The third and final match of the series is tomorrow, Tuesday. It is also the series-decider. Today's great win is the tonic for that match, which was also evident in Mosaddek's words, 'If we can keep up with what we did in this match, we will win the last match as well.'
