Bangladesh star Shakib Al Hasan has extended his best wishes to fellow cricketer Mushfiqur Rahim on the eve of his 100th test match.
In a Facebook post, Shakib recalled watching every ball of Mushfiqur’s first test match at Lord’s from the recreation room of the Bangladesh Krira Shikkha Protishtan (BKSP). He stated that from that day, Mushfiqur had been an inspiration to him and countless cricketers in Bangladesh and beyond.
He wrote, “I remember when you played your 1st test match in Lords I watched every ball from the recreation room in BKSP. From that day on you inspired me and countless cricketers in Bangladesh and beyond.”
“You have been playing for a while and you have given your best to your game. From the time you were leading age level team I saw you as my captain and till now and forever I play cricket you will be my captain.”
He also wrote, “Mushfiq bhai on this auspicious moment I wish you all the best for your 100th test match, a historic feat for any cricketer. Just like I watched your first match I will watch every ball you face on your 100th test match. I hope you enjoy this match and I wish I played it with you and celebrated your glory on field.”
