“Given the current situation, we will prioritise our safety first. We will try to bat as long as possible, which will be good for us and the team,” Miraz said at the post-day media interaction. “Playing to win requires a lot of time. If we bat and set a target, we then have to take 10 wickets again. For now, it’s essential to focus on our safety.”
