In the off-field context, the cricket players of India and Pakistan exhibit a pleasant camaraderie despite their intense rivalry on the field. In order to make some final preparations for their crucial ODI World Cup 2023 match on Tuesday at the same location, Pakistan and Bangladesh held rather extensive net sessions on Monday at Eden Gardens in Kolkata. Both teams’ seasons have been poor, and they are rapidly approaching the end of their prospects of qualifying for the semi-finals.
Mohammad Rizwan, who has scored the most runs for Pakistan in the competition so far, spent a considerable amount of time on Monday at the nets working on his higher cuts with bowling coach Morne Morkel. The former South African pacer occasionally forced the wicketkeeper-batter to duck as his steep bounce caused Rizwan some difficulties.
Mohammad Rizwan left the nets after settling a few balls and encountered several kids who had broken through to the Sourav Ganguly Stand.
“Brother, on his birthday (November 5, India vs. South Africa), (Virat) Kohli will play here.” What wishes do you have for him? They asked him.
“Mohabbat hai, sirf. I have only affection for him, insha’Allah, and I hope that this is our 49th or 50th anniversary together. Mohammad Rizwan responded, “God willing, may he get both his 49th and 50th ODI century here”),” as reported by the Sportstar. Most likely, the 31-year-old was hoping for a double hundred from Kohli.
Several players from the Bangladeshi team were absent from practice on Monday, despite the fact that a full-strength Pakistani team was at the nets. Shakib Al Hasan, captain, batted for more than ninety minutes. In five games, the all-around talisman has only managed 61 runs at an average of 12.20. He played at Eden Gardens a lot while he was a member of the Kolkata Knight Riders. Fans of Bangladesh will be hoping for a stirring performance from the 36-year-old when the “Bangla Tigers” play the “Men in Green” in what promises to be an exciting match.
