Pre-Match-Bangladesh-Nigar-Sultana-13-03-2022_Moment

Reporter: How are you looking forward to the match tomorrow?

Nigar Sultana: I think we had a good preparation here, and we had some good rest and so players are prepared for the next match.

Reporter: But you would probably not have had a look at the pitch, but any idea of what to expect tomorrow?

Nigar: I think more or less the same because we played in Nelson and played in Dunedin and it was more or less same, even though we watched some matches over there. So I think that it is going to be a good pitch.

Reporter: So you also watched the Pakistan players in the practice matches, So what are your thoughts about them as a team?

Nigar: Actually, we known them very well because we have played each other many times. So we have a good idea against them. And I think we have a good chance to make our first win in the World Cup.

Reporter: Yeah and any team news, is everyone fit or are you planning any changes? Anything you want to share?

Nigar: Everyone is super fit, I think and looking forward to play against Pakistan.

Reporter: And what else do you think is - what are the gains for your team in this tournament so far and going forward? What do you expect?

Nigar: I think the way the girls played the last two matches, I think it was brilliant. The result may not have gone our way but I think we are improving and we could see that in the last two matches. You could see how our bowlers bowled against South Africa. It was brilliant. And I think the way the batters batted against New Zealand, it was superb. So I think if we could play in the same way, we could implement our batting and bowling plan together - so maybe I think it will be a great match

Reporter: And you’ve been obviously watching other matches also, what do you think about the tournament overall?

Nigar: So far, I guess it's going brilliantly because we can see a lot of competitive matches and even in the last match we saw South Africa and Pakistan. It was too close. And I think there are a lot of interesting things. We already watched them and there are a lot of interesting things coming on.
