Saurasish Lahiri said that Mukesh deserves it. A guy who picks up around 150 wickets in just 39 matches, it just says in numbers.

“We are elated. It is a proud moment for all of us here in the Bengal team. Mukesh deserves it. A guy when picks up around 150 wickets in just 39 matches, it just says in numbers. His biggest strength is picking up wickets early in the innings,” Lahiri was quoted as saying by Mykhel. 

He further added that

He is a big-match player. Picking up Virender Sehwag in the first ball, picking up KL Rahul in a Ranji Semi-Final, that is his strength. I have seen Mohammed Shami in front of my eyes, and have seen his evolution. I am sure Mukesh will emulate the same path if he stays in the Indian team for a considerable period of time,” the Bengal coach Saurasish Lahiri added.

“Abhimanyu Easwaran not getting a chance concerns me. He has done really well for India A which can’t be matched by many. We always expect we will get chances, but it can’t happen every time. I am sure Abhi (Abhimanyu Easwaran) will keep pushing himself and keep performing despite the setback,”Saurasish Lahiri said.
