However, he was rested for the Test series against India. However, it is certain that Shariful will return to the T20 series against them. Even if he is not in the Test team, Shariful believes that his teammates can defeat India.

The first Test of the series will begin on September 19 in Chennai. Earlier while talking to the media in Mirpur, Shariful said, ‘Inshallah we will lose, we have that belief. We did well against Pakistan. I will try with that hope, InshAllah.’

For a long time, Bangladesh’s bowling attack in Tests has been a display of spin power. But that time is no more. Pacers like Hasan Mahmood and Nahid Rana have come up with Shariful, Taskins. Especially Rana has created a storm of speed on the soil of Pakistan.

Bangladesh will also be looking at him during the tour of India. Shariful feels that the bowlers outside the Bangladesh Test team are also of high quality. And he is hopeful that the in-form pace attack will play a big role in Bangladesh’s performance.

Shariful comments, ‘We have a good pace attack. Those outside are also very good. We are doing well in Pakistan, we will do well in India too. Because all our pacers are in good form. It is very good for Bangladesh. There have been many good bowlers before. But there were not so many bowlers behind. Those who are playing are good, there is backup behind. ‘
