We look what is best for us, I think during the daytime batting is better for us compared to the night. We batted well in the first game and hopefully, we bat well today as well.”

Meanwhile Mehidy Hasan Miraz said, “I would have loved to bat first as well, the wicket looks good. We are disappointed that we didn’t bat well in the last match, I think the bowlers did well.
