As Bangladesh get ready to play India in the Asia Cup Super Four, cricket fans and experts are busy with predictions and plans. Famous commentator Harsha Bhogle shared his thoughts on the Tigers, talking about their bowling attack and the form of their top-order batters.

Speaking on Cricbuzz, Bhogle said that Bangladesh’s openers could be very important. He explained, “They changed their openers a few times, but in the last game Saif Hassan scored runs. That is good. He is a young player who played earlier, then went back. I think he was not even picked in one of the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) teams, but now he has come back. Saif Hassan has done well, and Tanzid also. So maybe they will open together.”

Towhid Hridoy in the Middle Order

Bhogle also spoke about Towhid Hridoy’s steady form at No. 4. He said, “They won’t play Emon again unless there is some issue with captain Litton Das. But Towhid Hridoy doing well at No. 4 is very important for them. They will want him to turn his talent into a big performance on an important day. So let’s see if he can do that.”

Mustafizur as the Key Bowler

Talking about the bowlers, Bhogle picked Mustafizur Rahman as the main player to watch. He said, “My player to watch is Fizz (Mustafizur Rahman) if the pitch helps. He has started bowling well again. Earlier, he was not in good form, but now he looks better.”

The veteran commentator also named Tanzim Hasan Sakib as a bowler he likes, though he is not likely to play. Bhogle added, “They are not picking Tanzim. He is a good bowler, but they went back to Taskin and also picked Shoriful, who can swing the ball a little.”
