After the second T20I, Jaker Ali Anik, who was adjudged the Man of the Match for his outstanding batting performance, said, ” I only count the remarkable innings, which innings help us to win the match.

Anik said, “I have practised with my teammates but it is not final practice for me. I usually practise solely, which helps me to change my performance. I worked with my coach for last two years during the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) Cricket.”
He said, ” We will not take Pakistan lightly in today’s match. We shall try to win. They are also good side. Our target will be to win the last match. We shall go through a process.”
