Bangladesh will continue their "tactical aggressive" cricket for another success as they face off against Ireland in the three-match Twenty20 international series.
The series opening game will begin at 2pm Monday at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chittagong.
The match which will be aired live on Gazi TV and T-Sports.
Since being consigned to one-day international series defeat to England for the first time since 2016 after losing first two matches, Bangladesh have won six straight games.
In this period they won the last ODI against England to avoid a series whitewash and then swept the Three Lions in three-match T20 series emphatically.
The success continued as they won the ODI series against Ireland 2-0 and more importantly in every game, they rewrote records.
It appears Bangladesh are going through a new era of cricket, especially the way they have been playing of late.
But according to head coach Chandika Hathurusingha all those were possible for the "tactical aggressive" cricket, which made cricketers hungrier for success, something which was instrumental in the team's clinical performance.
"I don't see this as a new era. That's how we wanted to play our cricket going forward. We won't play aggressive cricket. Aggressive cricket, as I explain, it doesn't mean we go and hit hard further as we can," Hathurusingha said.
"It's aggressive in every sense of the word. Our selection (should be) aggressive field placing, our body language, our fielding, batting. Tactically we're going to be aggressive. We want to play the best way we can. I think when we play like that - like with aggression and with freedom, this team will do well always."
Psychological safety also brought out the best of the players to make them hungry for success, Hathurusingha clarified.
"One word I can sum up is psychological safety. it's a big word. There's a lot of things in behind that like if you can create the environment that the players can do their best without worry about outcomes, without worry about repercussion.
"Not only coaches, not only selectors even from their peers, if they can be free of trying things and if they fail it's still okay, they are the same players and we trust them," he added.
Given their past record against Ireland and recent successes, it is expected Bangladesh would sweep the T20I series also.
The two sides played five matches in this format so far with the last in 2016.
Ireland won the first encounter between the two sides in the 2009 T20 World Cup in England but Bangladesh later whitewashed Ireland in three-match series in 2012, that too on Irish soil.
Their last game in the 2016 T20 World Cup in Dharamshala was washed out.
"We want the same result ideally. That's what we talk about as well. We are going to do the same processes that are in place for us. If we do our process right, we are a very good team and that's all we can ask from the players.
"And we're trying to improve those processes everyday," said Hathurusingha, making his intention crystal clear.
