In an intriguing turn during the Day 1 second Test clash between Bangladesh and Sri Lanka in Chattogram, the Bangladesh cricket team made a curious decision to utilize the Decision Review System (DRS) for a delivery that was nowhere near the batter’s pad, as captured in a widely circulated video on social media.

Curious DRS decision by Najmul Hossain Shanto in Chattogram Test

The incident unfolded amidst the intensity of the game, specifically during the fifth delivery of the 44th over, delivered with precision by left-arm spinner Taijul Islam. In a moment of strategic contemplation, right-handed batter Kusal Mendis elegantly maneuver?ed the ball to the off side after a subtle advance down the track.

Witnessing this subtle interplay, Bangladesh skipper Najmul Hossain Shanto, positioned strategically at slip, engaged in a brief discourse with the bowler before electing to challenge the umpire’s decision through the intricate mechanism of the DRS. However, upon meticulous examination through the lens of technology, the replays unequivocally demonstrated the unmistakable contact of willow on leather, thus vindicating the on-field umpire’s original verdict. In the end, Shanto appeared amused by the incident.

Changes in the playing XI

Earlier in the match, the toss of fortune favoured Sri Lanka, who, in a calculated maneuver, opted to seize the opportunity  of batting first. Notably, the Sri Lankan contingent made a solitary alteration to their esteemed playing eleven, with the agile Asitha Fernando stepping into the fray, replacing the regrettably sidelined Kasun Rajitha. Meanwhile, Bangladesh made two changes to their playing XI, including the seasoned campaigner Shakib al Hasan and the debutant Hasan Mahmud.

Sri Lanka’s toss advantage and batting display

The Sri Lankan batters orchestrated a symphony of sublime strokes, led by the triumvirate of Dilshan Madushka, Dimuth Karunaratne and Mendis. The opening partnership of 96 runs between Madushka and Karunaratne unfolded with the finesse of a maste??r craftsman, weaving together a tapestry of defiance against the relentless pursuit of the new ball by the opposition bowlers.

Partnerships and departures

Despite the lamentable departure of Madushka via a fateful runout, the imperious Karunaratne found solace in the unyielding companionship of Mendis, forging a formidable partnership of 114 runs for the second wicket. Karunaratne’s innings concluded at 86 runs off 129 balls, featuring eight boundaries and a solitary six, before falling to debutant fast bowler Mahmud.

Sri Lanka ends Day 1 on a strong point

Mendis joined experienced Angelo Mathews at the crease, and together they forged a valuable partnership of 53 runs for the third wicket. Unfortunately, Mendis’ innings came to an end when he was dismissed by Shakib for 93 runs, narrowly missing out on reaching the coveted three-figure mark. Shortly after, Mathews departed after contributing 23 runs to the team’s total. Nevertheless, Dinesh Chandimal (34) and skipper Dhananjaya de Silva (15) remained unbeaten as Sri Lanka conclu?ded first day of the match with a strong total of 314/4.

The Sri Lankan onslaught

Despite notable efforts from Bangladesh’s bowlers, including Shoriful Islam and Taskin Ahmed, Sri Lanka’s strong batting lineup proved challenging to contain.

However, Shanto also identified a crucial aspect where his team fell short and revealed that not executing the set plans well enough was the reason behind Bangladesh’s close loss.

“It was a very good match. The boys showed a lot of character, Ali came into the team and showed a lot of intent. We started well with the ball but did not execute our plans later. Riyad’s innings was amazing along with Jaker’s, hope they contribute in the next match as well,” said Shanto.

The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) recently revealed the highly anticipated T20I and ODI squads for the upcoming multi-format series against Sri Lanka. The series will commence with a three-match T20I leg from March 4, followed by an equally exciting three-match ODI leg starting from March 13. In a surprising turn of events, Shakib Al Hasan has ??been sidelined from the highly promisin?g series.

Shakib al Hasan’s absence

The absence of Shakib from the white-ball series is due to a retina issue in his left eye. Shakib, a crucial player for Bangladesh, last represented the team in the ODI World Cup 2023. The decision to rest him for the series against Sri Lanka offers? a chance for other players to step up and make ??their mark on the international stage.

Najmul Hossain Shanto takes the helm

The BCB had previously announced the appointment of Najmul Hossain Shanto as the captain of the Bangladesh team across all formats for a year. This series marks the beginning of Shanto’s leadership role in Shakib’s absence, and his ability to guide the team will be under close scrutiny ahead of the T20 World Cup later this year.

Additionally, Anamul Haque and Mohammad Naim have earned their spots in the T20I squad after impressive performances in the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL).

Notably, there are many players who have been picked in both T20I and ODI squads. However, the senior most member of the side Mushfiqur Rahim could only ma??ke it to the ODI team and didn’t find a place in the T20I setup.

During the ODI World Cup 2023 match between India and Bangladesh on October 19, a significant controversy emerged in the 42nd over of India’s innings. It revolved around a delivery from Bangladesh’s left-arm spinner Nasum Ahmed, which was directed down the leg side. Umpire Richard Kettleborough decided not to signal it as a wide, a decision that attracted scrutiny. At that moment, Virat Kohli was at 97 on the verge of his century, wit?h India needing just two runs to secure victory.

Kohli capitalized on this pivotal juncture, smashing a six off the next ball to complete his century and with that India achieved a seven-wicket victory. However, this event triggered a passionate debate, with some suggesting ??that the wide ??ball was deliberate.

Najmul Hossain Shanto clarifies the wide ball controversy with Virat Kohli

Bangladesh’s stand-in captain in that game, captain, Najmul Hossain Shanto, stepped forward to? addr?ess the controversy surrounding the non-wide ball.

During a post-match ??press conference, Shanto made it abundantly clear that there was no deliberate effort to bowl a wide ball to prevent Virat Kohli from reaching his century. The 25-year-old emphasized that their primary goal was to participate in a fair and competitive game, free from any concealed motives or hidden agendas.

“No, no. There was no such plan. It was a normal plan. No bowler had the intention to bowl a wide ball. We tried to play a proper game. It was not intentional,” Shanto said.

Virat Kohli’s records and milestones

Despite the controversy, Kohli’s performance in the game was remarkable. He achieved several records and inched closer to India’s cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar in terms of centuries. The Indian stalwart now has 48 ODI centuries, with Tendulkar holding the record at 49. Kohli requires just one more century to equal Tendulkar and two more to surpass the icon??ic cricketer.

Furthermore, Kohli achieved the distinction of becoming the fastest cricketer to reach 26,000 interna??tional runs when during the unbeaten knock against Bangladesh, underscoring his exceptional batting prowess.

Opening batsman Jonny Bairstow set the stage with a brisk 52 off 59 balls.

The catch that stole the show

While Bangladesh struggled to contain the English batsmen, they found a moment of brilliance in the field.

The spectacular catch occurred during the penultimate over of England’s innings when Rashid attempted a big hit towards cow corner. However, Rashid failed to connect cleanly, sending the ball soaring towards deep mid-wicket.

Hridoy, stationed at deep mid-wicket, exhibited exceptional athleticism? as he leaped to pluck the ball out of the air. In an as?tonishing display of teamwork, Hridoy, who was perilously close to the boundary ropes, instinctively tossed the ball towards Shanto, who was stationed nearby. Shanto made no mistake, completing the catch to send Rashid back to the pavilion.
