Team India Struggled to get opening wicket of Bangladesh in the first session of Day 4 as they scored 123 runs opening stand.
But at the end of the day they managed to dismiss 6 Bangladesh batters and just need 4 wickets to win on Day 5.
Team India bowling coach Paras Mhambrey revealed that their entire focus was on being patient and waiting for the right opportunity.
“I think the discussion after the first session clearly was to be patient. We knew that the wicket would be easy and as the game progressed we all realised that the wicket was getting easier. Whatever conversations we had with our bowlers, it was much easier kind of wicket to bat on. So we knew that it was hard work
“The focus was on being patient and hitting the right areas and trying to create those opportunities, and obviously take those opportunities even when you get a half chance. Very happy with how things have progressed, we pulled it back by picking six wickets in that next two sessions. So that was good,” Mhambrey said in the press conference as quoted by Cricbuzz.
The credit must be given to him: Mhambrey lauds KL Rahul for impeccable bowling changes
“I think a lot of that changes KL made, the credit must be given to him. He rotated the bowlers very well, got the fast bowlers in short bursts. At one stage, when the ball was reversing as well and that was good to see, so got the seamers in. And when he realised that the fast bowlers did have longer spells, he got the spinners in, rotated them very well, especially the new ball we took as well, we took a couple of wickets. So the credit goes to KL,” he added.
