Former Australia pacer Shaun Tait was impressed with the way Bangladesh pacer Shoriful Islam has fared in recent games and hailed the young left-arm pacer's attitude towards fast bowling.
"It will be interesting to work with him [Shoriful]. But from afar, it seems like he has got a great attitude towards fast bowling," said Tait, who joined Chattogram Challengers as their pace bowling coach for the upcoming Bangabandhu Bangladesh Premier League (BPL), set to begin from January 21.
Tait is yet to work with Shoriful, who will play for the Challengers in this BPL. Shoriful is not an express fast bowler like Tait was during his playing days. But his aggression still caught the eyes of Tait, one of very few pacers to have clocked over 160kmph.
Shoriful was an integral cog in Bangladesh's historic Test win against New Zealand earlier this month. He was the one who gave the Tigers the initial momentum with his three for 69 in the first innings of the first Test at the Bay Oval in Mount Maunganui.
The pacer was also amongst the wickets in the second New Zealand Test as well. "That [New Zealand] tour was good for Bangladesh in general and certainly for him [Shoriful]. He attacks, he bowls on the stumps. You can see he is enthusiastic and loves what he is doing," added Tait.
The Australian also believed that Shoriful will be pivotal for the Challengers in this BPL.
"Shoriful is an aggressive left-arm bowler. He is going to be extremely important in this team as well. He has definitely played enough cricket to know what he is doing. So, I will definitely look forward to working with him," Tait said.
