Player of the Match
Shakib Al Hasan | Bangladesh
When I won toss, didn’t have any hesitation to bowl. We’ve trained here and know there’s a lot of dew. It was a very good partnership, and would’ve loved to finish it off. One of our fielders came to me and said if you appeal now he’ll be out.
Then I appealed and the umpires asked me if I’m serious or whether I am going to take it back. It’s in the laws. I don’t know if it’s right or wrong. I was at war and I had to take a decision to make sure my team wins.
Right or wrong, there will be debates but if it is in the rules I don’t mind taking those chances. That (altercation with Mathews) helped, bit more fight, I’m 36 and normally fight doesn’t come easily but happy it did today.
