Shoriful happy for teammate Nahid Rana's PSL breakthrough

Bangladesh pacer Shoriful Islam has expressed his delight after his teammate Nahid Rana secured a team in the Pakistan Super League (PSL).

Nahid was picked up by Peshawar Zalmi at the end of the auction for 60 lakh Pakistani rupees. He joins fellow Bangladesh players Mustafizur Rahman, Parvez Hossain Emon and Rishad Hossain in this year's PSL.

"I am delighted that he got a team in the PSL," Shoriful told reporters at the Rajshahi Divisional Stadium.

"I felt very happy for him. I was in my village when the PSL auction was held. Nahid is my teammate, so I am really happy for him," added Shoriful, who did not find any takers in the PSL auction. Shoriful and Nahid will be back in action today when North Zone take on South Zone in the second-round match of the one-day format of the Bangladesh Cricket League at the Rajshahi venue.    �"BSS
