Bangladesh captain Mominul believed Shakib Al Hasan is 100
percent fit to play the first Test against Sri Lanka, starting tomorrow
(Sunday) at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium here.
After joining the side yesterday night, following his
recovery from the Covid-19, Shakib today (Saturday) batted for a long time in
the net, indicating that he is desperate to play.
"He is 100 percent fit. As a captain I think, he is fit
to play the Test match," Mominul Haque said here today.
Shakib in fact batted for the first time after the Dhaka
Premier League (DPL) last month. But he showed no sign of fatigue when he was
facing off the pacers and spinners in the net. In fact, he batted aggressively,
which was enough to impress the head coach Russell Domingo, who was seen to
applaud Shakib.
"From what I have seen, he batted really well. I think
he will play," Momimul said. "The good thing about Shakis is that he
is psychologically very strong. If he wants, he can play the game despite the
adversities.
If Shakib plays tomorrow's, this will be his first Test in
this year.
After playing against Pakistan last year, he skipped the New
Zealand Test series and missed the South Africa Test series due to family
emergency.
"He is prepared to play the South Africa Tests but due
to family problems, he had to miss that series. He was also doubtful in this
series after being contracted Covid-19. But he now recovered and I think he is
desperate to play."
