R Ashwin vs Tamim Iqbal – There might come a time when Ashwin and Tamim clash in this Test. Expect Bangladesh’s south-paw Tamim Iqbal to struggle against R Ashwin as his record against left-handed batsman has been one of his strengths.
The vicious turn which he generates whilst bowling round the wicket to a left hander can take any batsman by surprise. Ashwin also possesses a carrom bowl in his armour which will be helpful for Ashwin as Tamim cannot just get away with padding up.
Surely, Iqbal will have a stern test against Ashwin, a fact of the matter which Tamim is well-versed with.
