Mesmerizing Mustafiz spreads magic in IPL

mr2Mesmerizing Mustafiz agains spreads his magic in IPL 2016. It has really become hard to describe the magical boy Mustafiz by any adjective. In his last match in IPL, he gave away just 9 runs for 2 wickets bowling 4 overs that helped restrict Punjab to 143 in the first innings at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium yesterday.

The Bangladesh pace sensation began with his first maiden over of the tournament. The Punjab batsmen failed to score any run in the first nine balls. He came to bowl the last over of the first power play and put pressure on the batsmen with his cutters, slower and yorkers.

Manan Vohra, who was playing well until he came, was run-out as a result of the confusion that he had built. Mustafizur took a spectacular diving catch at fine leg to remove the dangerous Glenn Maxwell.

Punjab looked good for a total but Mustafiz came back in the 14th over and trapped Shaun Marsh who had smashed his way to 40 off 34 balls by then. The wonder boy then took out Nikhil Naik (22) in the last over as the field screen flashed the words ‘Magical Mustafizur’.

Mustafizur had bowled 17 dot balls while conceding no boundaries in his four overs. At the end of his first three overs, he had given away just three runs and had taken a wicket.

In the history of IPL, it was the lowest ever economy rate in an innings after three overs.

After all his performance in IPL outstanding so far and he is rising the country name in international arena day by day. We Bangladeshi people are so proud of him.
