Mosaddek aims to make impact after T20 comeback

Bangladesh allrounder Mosaddek Hossain Saikat said he is determined to contribute according to the team's needs after earning a recall to the national T20 squad for the ongoing Zimbabwe tour.

Mosaddek returned to Bangladesh's ODI side during the recent home series against Australia after a four-year hiatus and retained his place in the squad for the three-match T20 series against Zimbabwe, marking his return to the shortest format after a lengthy break.

Bangladesh and Zimbabwe are currently in Bulawayo, where the T20 series begins today (Wednesday). Ahead of the opening match, Bangladesh continued their preparations at the venue.

In a video message released by the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB), Mosaddek said he has set high expectations for himself following his successful ODI comeback.

"The expectations from myself are very high. I performed well after returning to the team and now I have to do even better. I have to play according to the team's needs," he said.

The allrounder also spoke on the conditions in Bulawayo as he said its different compared to Harare, where Bangladesh played the Test and ODI matches.

"The conditions here are a bit different from Harare. The air is stronger, and the environment is slightly different," he said, adding that his goal is to make an impact in the match he starts in the playing XI.

"Whenever I get an opportunity to play, my goal is to make an impact and help the team win. That has always been my priority," Mosaddek remakred.

Bangladesh will look to finish the Zimbabwe tour on a positive note when the three-match T20 series gets underway in Bulawayo today (Wednesday).    �"BSS
