Bijoy expects ‘highly competitive’ 2nd four-day

Following a drawn result in the first four-day game, Bangladesh 'A' and Pakistan Shaheens will face off again in the second four-day match starting Tuesday in Islamabad. For this second match, Pakistan Shaheens have made eight changes to their squad, while six players from the Test squad have joined the Bangladesh 'A' team after national duties.

Bangladesh 'A' team captain Enamul Haque Bijoy said, "After some changes in the team, we are focusing on giving our best in the second four-day match. The first four-day game was a test for us, and that experience will definitely help us in this game."

The first Test match between Pakistan and Bangladesh is set to begin on August 21. Some players from the 'A' team have joined the national team for this match. Regarding these changes, Bijoy added, "Like the Shaheens' squad, our team has also seen some changes. Experienced players have moved to the national Test squad, but I have a lot of confidence in the young players; they are talented and dynamic."

Bijoy further stated, "I am aware that the second four-day match will be a tough contest. It is linked to winning the series. We want to showcase our skills in the best possible way and are eager to challenge the opponents."
