It was a dream come true for Hafijul when called to Leicester last week to work with England's spin bowling coach, Saqlain Mushtaq.

Hafijul tells us "Saqlain (recognised as pioneering the 'doosra') liked my bowling and batting. He advised on my batting stance and told me to keep practising."

Saqlain also told Hafijul that he has the ability to play county cricket as he has many spin bowling variations.

Hafijul tells us that a few clubs have shown interest in him for BPL t20 cricket, the most popular after the IPL in India. However, his ambition is to play A list and first class matches in any other country and he's working hard to realise that aim.
