Centurions of the game against Afghanistan Najmul Hossain Shanto and Mehedi Hasan Miraz entered their names on the Gaddafi Stadium honours board on Sunday.

Bangladesh all-rounder Mehedi Hasan Miraz said that he remains unfazed at the prospect of having to face Pakistan quick Shaheen Shah Afridi or any other bowler in the upcoming matches of the ongoing Asia Cup in Sri Lanka and Pakistan.

Najmul Hossain Shanto and Mehedi Hasan Miraz laid the platform for a huge score before the bowlers turned up with a spirited display to allow Bangladesh place one foot in the Asia Cup's Super Four stage as the Tigers won by 89 runs against Afghanistan on a batting-friendly wicket at Lahore's Gaddafi Stadium yesterday.

Mehedi Hasan Miraz made it count in just his second appearance as an opener in one-day cricket with an authoritative century against Afghanistan in the Asia Cup in Lahore yesterday.

“Look, obviously we all were shocked after the way Tamim bhai retired and it was unexpected for us. Since we had a break that day, we came for training the next day and we prepared individually for the game. But everyone felt bad after the incident. However, we planned for the game and prepared ourselves,” Miraz told the media after the game

The mantra for top cricketers in the world as they look to sustain success is a constant drive to develop new skills. There are innumerable instances of highly-talented players starting off their international career with a bang but failing to carry on for an extended period of time due to not improving their skills and becoming predictable. Modern technology has made things even harder, with opponents analysing even the slightest details and preparing accordingly.

Bangladesh all-rounder Mehedi Hasan Miraz who was named in the ICC Men's ODI Team of the Year for 2022 received his cap as the recognition from the governing body of World cricket on Monday.

Mehedi Hasan Miraz has expressed willingness to play English county cricket after talking to English spinner Jake Lintott.

After one-half of the Bangladesh contingent boarded the first flight to London at 1.40 am on Sunday midnight, the second half of the team’s contingent left for the United Kingdom in the morning today for their three-match ODI series against Ireland, part of the ICC Men's World Cup Super League.

Despite the fact that Bangladesh always banked on the spin friendly surfaces especially in the longest format of the game at home but according to all-rounder Mehedi Hasan Miraz the hosts will continue their positive approach from the white ball format and expecting a sporting pitch for the one-off Test against Ireland from tomorrow.

The good news is the CT scan done on Miraz revealed no cause for concern. However, he was taken to an ophthalmologist for extra precautions.

Skipper Shakib Al Hasan lauded the team's effort after Bangladesh registered a historic maiden T20I series win over the world champions England by beating the visitors by four wickets in the second of the three-match series at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur on Sunday. 

With the Sher-e-Bangla surface offering a lot of grip and turn for the slower bowlers, Mehedi Hasan Miraz, in for Shamim Patwary for this match, turned the screws on England with his best figures of four for 12. 

Skipper Tamim Iqbal felt that having a bad series is part and parcel of the game but when some members of the team do not perform, others need to stand up.
