“Probably the worst wicket I’ve come across in my career” – New Zealand captain Tim Southe express dissapointmeny with Mirpur track for BAN-NZ 2nd Test.

New Zealand skipper Tim Southee expressed clear dissatisfaction with the Mirpur wicket during the second Test against Bangladesh. After the Blackcaps’ initial loss in the series opener, they faced a crucial match.

Despite their eventual four-wicket victory, Southee criticized the pitch’s imbalance between batting and bowling, highlighting the challenges faced by both teams in completing all four innings within 180 overs by the second half of Day 4.

Southee said “There are a number of ways I could describe that wicket. I think for the match to be all over in 170 overs is a fair reflection on the wicket. It wasn’t great. I think there wasn’t an even battle between bat and ball. Probably the worst wicket I’ve come across in my career.”
