Hathurusinghe left the Bangladesh team in early 2016. He then came to Bangladesh for the first time as Sri Lankan coach. Hathurur’s Sri Lanka also won the Test and T20 series after losing to Bangladesh in the tri-national ODI series final.
Bangladesh returned to Sri Lanka and lost to Sri Lanka in the Nidahas Trophy and played in the final. In the same year, Bangladesh also faced Sri Lanka at the Asian Cup in the United Arab Emirates. In the first match of the tournament, Bangladesh defeated Sri Lanka by an incredible century of Mushfiqur Rahim.
Playing against Sri Lanka during 2017 means playing against Sri Lankan coach Hathurusinghe. Hathurusinghe was the main source of inspiration for cricketers, even though they did not say so at the time. But last night, the words of two national team star cricket players, Tamim Iqbal and Mushfiqur Rahim, came out in an online chat two years ago.
Mushfiqur played that day with a crack in the ribs. He was not supposed to play until the day before, he decided to play with an injury at the last minute. Bangladesh initially lost 2 wickets in the blink of an eye due to Lasith Malinga’s great bowling. Tamim had to go to the hospital with a hand injury. Tamim later abandoned the entire Asian Cup. Mushfiqur kept Bangladesh in the game by fighting the injury that day. The world saw his amazing fight.
Mushfiqur said the 144 race entries in yesterday’s chat, ‘I couldn’t practice correctly the day before. I played 5-10 balls on the net. I saw that I can’t play big shots. I can only defend. Now is not a test that I will play in defense. I was very disappointed. When I went to do the X-ray with the physio, my eyes cried. The physio realized that since I couldn’t do normal activities, there must be a crack in my ribs. At night, the X-ray report shows that the crack has been caught. At night I couldn’t believe I could play. I gave medicine and had dinner. So I know why I thought this match should be played anyway. The first game is against Sri Lanka, it must be won.
Tamim smiled when he heard the name Sri Lanka. Stopping Mushfiqur, Tamim added with a mischievous smile on his face: ‘I said I was wrong, friend. Do not play against Sri Lanka. Bangladesh was playing against Sri Lanka. Mushfiqur was playing against Hathuru. It’s not just you, we all had a stubbornness. There is nothing wrong with that. The way he left, or the way we wanted to defeat him, not that he is angry, Hathuru has to lose. Speaking playfully, he knew everything inside and outside of us. If we could beat it from there, it would give us a lot of satisfaction. From there, everyone wanted to beat Sri Lanka. Without a doubt, he was a very good coach.
Tamim went down to bat later with a broken arm in that game. Mushfiqur was accompanied. Mushfiqur, undefeated at 126, was fired by 144 at the end. Bangladesh won the match by a large margin of 136 runs in 281 runs.
