Jamie Siddons opens up about Sabbir - Miraz opening pair

Before the World Cup, Bangladesh played a two-match T20I series in the United Arab Emirates. Tigers won the series without Shakib-Mushfiqur. Although they had to sweat quite a bit to win. However, Sabbir’s shot impressed Jamie Siddons in the series.

This cricketer of the national team did not get run in the first match of the series. He returned to the dressing room with zero runs. However, in the second match of the series, he scored 12 runs off 9 balls. Get a free hit and use it. Hit a great shot for a six. And this six impressed coach Jamie Siddons. Although the run collection is not high, according to Jamie Siddons, Sabbir has shown his ability in just one shot.

Mehdi Hasan Miraz opened the innings with Sabbir in UAE. Both are new to the opening positions. However, Miraz is utilizing the opportunity. Jamie Siddons was asked about the pair at the end of the series.

Siddons said, “Yes, pleased with the opening. Especially with Miraz. Sabbir is yet to find rhythm at this stage after his return. But in one shot he showed what he can do with the bat. That’s what I want to see more of.”

Siddons said of Miraz, “Miraz’s confidence is great. I’ve seen him do well in Tests and ODIs, I know what he can do. Here he’s been given the license to play more shots in the top order. He’s doing great.”

The Tigers have a tri-nation series ahead of them. There are rumors that the new opening pair may be seen there. Which pair will finally open the innings for Bangladesh in the upcoming T20 World Cup is now the question of crores of rupees.
