I won’t express with words: Shanto

Bangladesh completed a landmark Test series victory against Pakistan by notching up a six-wicket win in the series deciding second Test at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium on Tuesday.

The victory also saw Bangladesh sweep two-match Test series against the hosts after a 10-wicket win in the first Test. Pakistan were the third Test nation against whom the Tigers registered a series victory, other than Zimbabwe and West Indies.

But both of the teams were significantly weaker and depleted at the time of losing the series against Bangladesh.

Bangladesh skipper Najmul Hossain Shanto was over the moon after the historical Test series victory, saying that it's a landmark incident in the country's cricket history, something which he can't express with just some words.

“It means a lot. We can't express with words, really happy. I think before we came here we're looking to win here, and the way everyone did their job, really happy,” Shanto said.

“The bowling unit was very impressive. I think the most important thing is their work ethic. I think the way they did their work in the recent past time, that's why they get the result. And then everyone was honest with themselves, and they wanted to win. So that is important for our team, and then I hope they will continue,” Shanto added.
