News Desk: Miraj has scored a century as the fourth batsman to reach No. 6 in Tests. Dedicated the first century of his career to his family. The advice given by senior Tamim-Mushfiqur-Sakib has given confidence, said the spin all-rounder.

Craig Brathwaite considers the third day of the Test to be very important. The Caribbean captain thinks it is still possible to turn around if the wicket survives. Let's start with a small statistic. The list of Test centuries in the country is not very long. Mehdi Hasan Miraj became the fourth batsman after Pilot, Mahmudullah and Sohag Gazi. To whom will you dedicate the first century in your senior career? Mehdi Hasan Miraj said, ‘My mother, father, my children all pray before the game that I do well. Of course I will sacrifice my family. ' Playing such an innings in the lower order is not easy. However, Mushfiqur-Tamim-Sakibra played with the power of the given mantra without fear. Miraj said, 'Brother Mushfiqur and brother Tamim gave tips in practice. I have tried to do those. When the seniors in the dressing room give courage in this way, the chests of juniors like me become wider.

I can try my best. ' Even after two days, the spinners have not seen any extra turn in the wicket. Many cricket experts would have been happy to see two fast bowlers on such a wicket. However, if that was the case, the two off-spinners could have slipped. Miraj could also fall with the sword. Did the century mature? He said, 'I have scored a century in this match, I can't do it after that. If you get a wicket in one match, you can't get it in the next match. But the team combination is key. All decisions for him can be accepted. Because the team is first. At the end of the day, Miraj was smiling, but the fold of thought was clearly on the forehead of the opposing captain. Craig knows the third day of the match can make a fortune. However, the behavior of the wicket is still keeping the lamp of courage burning. "Bangladesh batted well," said West Indies' Craig Brathwaite. Bowling is also regulated. But the wicket is good for batting.

The ball is not turning too much. We need to build some good partnerships. It is not impossible for them to get close to the run or take the lead. But for that we have to survive on the wicket. Tomorrow is a very important day. ' There is no doubt that a glimpse of Junior Mirage will solidify his all-rounder badge. And Miraj's century will surely give the Tigers the courage to dream big by impressing the established batsmen.
