The reaction

Sohag Gazi was the bowler that Anamul caught Williamson off. First, Gazi could not believe he had a wicket, and then he had his hand on his mouth as he ran to greet Anamul. His first concern was Anamul and whether he had been injured. There was a lot of laughter in the huddle that followed the catch, and most players had a concerned look for the catcher  ;D

The recovery

Gazi was bowling dangerously on the fifth morning, and his best delivery took the second wicket of his hat-trick. BJ Watling, the first-innings centurion, was bowled a doosra that jumped off a fuller length. The thin edge first hit Mushfiqur Rahim's gloves but he withstood the pain to take the rebound, before stooping to the ground in pain.  Big Grin

The catch

Shakib Al Hasan doesn't stay out of the game for too long. He was at leg slip when Gazi bowled the hat-trick ball. As the ball clipped Doug Bracewell's outside edge, struck Mushfiqur on his boot and popped up, Shakib flung himself before the lone slip could even react.

The dive got him to the ball, which he caught one-handed to trigger massive celebrations. ::LOL::

While Gazi was talking at the briefing, he gave Shakib 50% of the credits for the 3rd wicket he obtained.
Gazi mentioned that "While I got the first wicket I didn't believe that I would get the 2nd one but I bowled in a specific area & again I tried to bowl in that specific area & got the 3rd one & When I got the 1st two I was thinking that something may happen." & hell yeah it happened.  (He told all these in Bengali Language)

and yeah Shakib did well at the end of the day, he amused viewers.

He also give Mushfiq credit. I think Mushfiq's catch was more of a luck thing rather than effort itself. Good on  him to hold on to it though.

But Shakib was absolutely brilliant with that catch. Also big fan!  :-* A class act indeedy.

is this a great allrounder in the making?
