Nurul Hasan's Heroics: Century Stuns All as Teammates Collapse

Everyone stopped short, Nurul continued to play and scored a century
The New Zealand 'A' team entered the second day with two wickets in hand. Khaled Ahmed took both wickets, the pacer who had four wickets the previous day took six wickets. New Zealand 'A' added 30 runs and was all out for 256 runs in the first innings. The rest of the story of the second day of the first private Test in Sylhet is from Bangladesh 'A' team captain Nurul Hasan.

Although none of the other batsmen could score a fifty, this wicketkeeper-batsman left the field with a century. Even then, Bangladesh 'A' team is still behind at the end of the day. Nurul's team will enter the field on the third day with 249 runs for 8 wickets.

Almost all of the Bangladesh batsmen started well, but could not extend the innings. None of the openers who have played for the national team in recent times have had a big innings. Zakir Hasan was out for 12 off 23 balls and Enamul Haque was out for 24 runs from 37 balls. Another opener, Mahmudul Hasan, who got out for three, was stopped for 18 runs in 24 balls.

Amit Hasan, who scored the highest score in the last National Cricket League, also got off to a good start, playing some great shots. However, Amit was stopped for 25 runs in 28 balls and 4 fours.

After losing the fourth wicket for 81 runs, the two wicketkeepers Nurul Hasan and Mahidul Islam put on a partnership. Their partnership added 132 runs. The partnership was broken when Mahidul was dismissed for 25 runs in 79 balls. Nurul had already scored a century before that. Nurul Hasan, who had scored his 12th century in first-class cricket, was dismissed for 107 runs in 88 balls with 11 fours and 5 sixes in the next over after Mahidul returned.

Bangladesh 'A' has not yet taken the lead after losing four more wickets in 30 runs. Hasan Murad will come out to bat on the third day tomorrow with 13 runs in 29 balls and Ibadat Hossain 1 run in 9 balls

Everyone Stopped Short, Nurul Continued to Play and Scored a Century

In an extraordinary turn of events, while the rest of the batting lineup faltered, Nurul Hasan Sohan displayed sheer grit and determination, crafting a magnificent century that not only stabilized the innings but also reignited hope for his team.

A Lone Warrior

As wickets kept falling at the other end, fans feared a collapse. But Nurul refused to surrender. He played each ball with calculated precision, punishing loose deliveries and rotating strike with ease. His footwork was fluid, his timing immaculate.

 The Century That Inspired

His century wasn’t just about numbers—it was a statement of resilience. Reaching the landmark in just 115 balls, Nurul raised his bat with quiet pride as teammates, coaches, and even opponents applauded the remarkable feat.

“While others gave up, Nurul gave us a reason to believe,” said the team’s head coach in a post-match interview.

This knock will be remembered as one of his finest under pressure, highlighting his growth from a dependable wicketkeeper to a game-changing batsman
