In a display of impeccable batting finesse, Bangladesh’s Mushfiqur Rahim reached his well-deserved half-century with a stylish upper-cut against New Zealand’s pacer, Lockie Ferguson.

Facing a short delivery outside off, Mushfiqur elegantly rose on his toes, executing a perfect upper-cut that sailed over the deep backward point fence, almost clearing it entirely. The ball bounced just once over the ropes, showcasing Mushfiqur’s exquisite timing and placement.

His well-timed boundary not only brought up his 50 runs but also highlighted his ability to play unorthodox shots with grace and precision.
