It is not good is it, international cricket was held up because of other reasons, it is not good I have not seen that before in cricket in my three years (here).
We knew it before the series. But our focus at the moment is to win tomorrow's match and clinch the series. We have been playing good cricket so far and we just want to maintain the same standard.
This is an opportunity to get used to one-day cricket, back to facing the white ball and try to do better than what we did here in September when the ball moved a bit and we lost lot of wickets early.
They are the world's top team while ours is a team still in the learning process. But it has been three years since we played that test series and I think we have improved a little.
We're really enjoying the situation. Barring any mishaps in the second innings, we're in the driving seat.
It could have been a lot better day for Bangladesh after a brilliant start. We wanted to score lot more runs in the second innings obviously but it did not happen. Still, I must say there is a lot of improvement than the previous games.
Obviously we would try to tie the series tomorrow (Wednesday) and tomorrow's win would be our main objective.
Obviously we would like to win tomorrow and tie the series and that is always the objective in a one-day match. We feel that if we can put a little bit more pressure on the opposition for a longer period we stand a much better chance to win the game and square the series.
I have some very strong feelings, not just about this match, but the whole series. I will convey it (to the ICC) through proper channels.
I think the second test is going to be probably harder than the first test.
