The coach of the Bangladesh Cricket team, Richard Pybus, has said that Shakib Al Hasan and Abdur Razzak could be vital for the Bangladesh team in the upcoming World T20 Championship. As per Pybus, Shakib and Razzak are experienced spinners and they know how to use the subcontinent conditions to good effect. Razzak has performed brilliantly in the recent T20 series against Ireland. Razzak played in all the three T20 matches and took 5 wickets at an average of 14.40.

Pybus also praised the young left arm spinner Elias Sunny. Sunny also bowled well in the Ireland series and was the highest wicket taker for Bangladesh in that series. He took 8 wickets in 3 matches. Pybus said that Sunny is an old fashioned left arm spinner who likes to flight the ball and deceive the batsmen in the air. He also has a very good arm bowl. The Bangladeshi fast bowlers were not able to perform that well on the Ireland tour. Mashrafe Mortaza took four wickets in the third match, but, apart from him, no other fast bowler bowled in the right areas. On being asked about that, Pybus said that the fast bowlers were not able to control the swing with the new ball. As per Pybus, it was nice to see Mashrafe Mortaza bowling well again. He has struggled a lot with the injuries in the last few years, but, he is a very tough character. He has made a fantastic comeback in the team and hopefully, he would carry on his good form in World T20 Championship as well.

On being asked about the performance of the Bangladeshi batsmen in Ireland, Pybus said that he is satisfied with the performance of the batsmen on the Ireland tour. The conditions in Ireland were not easy for batting, but, the batsmen showed maturity and batted well in the series.
