Motin’s hundred makes Mash happy

Bangladesh’s ODI skipper Mashrafe Bin Mortaza expresses his happiness and congratulates groundsman Abdul Motin on the occasion of SNBCS’s 100th ODI.

Sher-e-Bangla National stadium, ‘home of Bangladesh cricket’ is the fastest to the 100-ODI mark among international cricket stadiums after it debuted in December 8, 2006.

While Bangladesh are not playing on this landmark occasion, however, Masrafe did not fail to congratulate Abdul Motin, who worked on the ground during the first ever ODI at the Sher-e-Bangla.

On this special occasion, BCB brought in the grounds man who also worked at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury stadium in Chittagong.

Mashrafe was glad to be able to meet Motin and insisted via a facebook post that Motin’s ‘100 not out’ makes him happier than Tamim Iqbal and Shakib Al Hasan’s 100s.

Mashrafe wrote: “Motin Bhai’s 100 not out exudes more happiness today after overtaking Tamim, Shakib’s and many other's 100s. Congratulations Motin Bhai, Sher-e-Bangla is waiting for 200…..”
