Mushfiqur ka 100th Test
Day 1 ke end par Mushfiqur 99* par khade hain and honestly ye woh type ka 99 hai jahan fans tension me hain par banda khud bilkul relaxed. Unhone innings ko itna smoothly build kiya ke kab 95 for 3 wala pressure 292 for 4 ban gaya pata hi nahi chala.Bangladesh jab thoda lose footing kar raha tha tab unhone pehle Mominul ke saath 107-run stand chipka diya. Mominul ka 63 bhi kaafi solid tha although unlucky dismissal tha — sweep shot edge + boot + slip… textbook freakish wicket. Fir Litton Das ke saath unbroken 90-run partnership aur innings dheere-dheere stabilize ho gayi.
Ireland ne tempo slow kiya, Andy McBrine char wickets lekar ek proper spinner-wala day bana rahe the, par Mushfiqur ko dekh ke lag raha tha like he was playing in his backyard.
SBNS: Unka Sach Me “Home Ground”
Ek crazy stat: Mushfiqur ne 5000+ runs across formats sirf iss ek venue par bana diye. Entire world cricket me koi bhi player ek hi ground par itne runs nahi banaya.
Isliye Mirpur me unka 100th Test and usme hundred banne ka chance… ekdum storybook moment lag raha hai.
Kabhi kabhi conditions ko samajhna ek alag hi skill hoti hai and Mushfiqur iss ground ko itna naturally read karte hain ki aisa feel hota hai pitch unka old friend ho jise woh har mood me samajhte hain.
Dressing Room Ke Reactions: Calm, Respect, Thoda Fun
Mominul ka comment bada wholesome tha. Bola: expression dekhke kabhi nahi laga ki milestone match chal raha hai. “I thought he will finish it today but thoda late ho gaya” — ye line bhi thodi cute lagti hai kyunki poora dressing room basically Mushfiqur ke hundred ka wait kar raha tha.
Wo bolte hain na… dressing room legends silent leaders hote hain. Mushfiqur waisa banda hai.
Even Nazmul Abedin ka reaction interesting tha. Clear bol diya ke Mushfiqur ne retirement related kuch nahi bola and test cricket ke ambassador aage bhi team ko guide karte rahenge. Yeh kaafi reassuring tha kyunki pre-match ceremony thodi retirement vibes wali lag rahi thi, Mominul ne bhi same bola tha.
Kal Subah… The Big 1 Run
Sabse exciting part yeh hai ke Mushfiqur sirf ek run door khade hain dono countries ke first 100-cap players wale exclusive club me hundred banane se. Colin Cowdrey, Javed Miandad and maybe ab Mushfiqur Rahim.
Aur imagine kijiye: SBNS ka crowd, Mirpur ka atmosphere, Mushfiqur on strike, ek nudge to midwicket… poora stadium explode ho jayega.
Kal ka first half-hour honestly Bangladesh cricket ke recent history ka sabse special half-hour ho sakta hai.
Chahe century aaye ya thoda delay ho, yeh day ek cheez clear kar gaya: Mushfiqur Rahim Pakistan, India, England jaisi cricket-heavy nations ke superstars ke beech standing rakhte hain as one of the toughest, calmest and most respected Test players.
Yeh milestone match unki value ko aur highlight karta hai.
Conclusion: Yeh Sirf Ek Match Nahi, Ek Era Ka Celebration Hai
Mushfiqur Rahim ka 100th Test is less about numbers and more about loyalty… discipline… and Bangladesh cricket ke un phases ko paar karna jahan log Test cricket se interest lose kar rahe the.
Unka 99* almost poetic lag raha hai. Jaise cricket khud keh raha ho “chapter abhi khatam mat karo, ek page aur bacha hai.”
