অমির অল-রাউন্ডার হওয়ার স্বপ্ন
স্পোর্টস করেসপন্ডেন্ট
বাংলানিউজটোয়েন্ট ফোর.কম.বিডি
ঢাকা: অল-রাউন্ডার হিসেবে পরিচয় দিতে বেশ লাগে। বাড়তি গুরুত্বও পাওয়া যায়। জহিরুল ইসলাম অমি জাতীয় দলে সুযোগ পেয়েছিলেন ব্যাটসম্যন হিসেবে। এখন তার পরিচয় উইকেট কিপার ব্যাটসম্যান। এভাবেই নিজেকে দেখতে পছন্দ করেন।
জাতীয় দলে অমির অন্তর্ভুক্তি হয়েছে নাটকীয়ভাবে। এ বছর মার্চে রকিবুল ইসলাম অপ্রত্যাশিত ভাবে ক্রিকেটকে বিদায়ের ঘোষণা দিলে নির্বাচকরা বেছে নেন তরুণ এই উইকেট কিপার ব্যাটসম্যানকে। এরপর টি-টোয়েন্টি বিশ্বকাপ, ইংল্যান্ডে টেস্ট এবং একদিনের সিরিজ, আয়ারল্যান্ড, স্কটল্যান্ড এবং নেদারল্যান্ডস সফরেও ছিলেন।
ব্যাটসম্যান হিসেবে যতটা সুখ্যাতি কুড়িয়েছেন, উইকেট কিপার হিসেবে তেমন সুযোগ হয়নি। মুশফিকুর রহিম চোখে চোট পাওয়ায় বিকল্প হিসেবে ইংল্যান্ডে উইকেটের পেছনে দাঁড়িয়েছিলেন।
বিকল্পের তালিকায় থাকতে ভালো লাগছে না অমির। নিজেকে তাই পুরোদস্তুর প্রস্তুত করতে চেষ্টা করছেন পাকা উইকেট-কিপার ব্যাটসম্যান হিসেবে। চেষ্টা করছেন মানে উঠে পড়ে লেগেছেন। কোচ, নির্বাচক প্রত্যেকের আশ্বাসে হাতের বিশ্বস্ত গ্লাভ জোড়াকে কাজে লাগাতে প্রস্তুত হচ্ছেন। অমি জানান,“জেমি আমাকে উৎসাহ দেন। নির্বাচকরাও বলেছেন কিপিংটা চালিয়ে যেতে। কিপিংটা ভালো হলে আমার এবং দলের জন্য উপকার হবে।”
উইকেট কিপার ব্যাটসম্যান হিসেবে ঢাকা লিগে খেলার ইচ্ছে অমির। আগের কাব বাংলাদেশ বিমান থেকে এবারও তার সঙ্গে যোগাযোগ করা হয়েছে। অথচ বিমানের প্রধান কিপার থাকবেন মুশফিকুর রহিম। অমির এতে আপত্তি নেই। মুশফিকের সঙ্গে মিলেমিশে উইকেট কিপিং করতে চান। বাংলানিউজটোয়েন্ট ফোর.কম.বিডিকে বলেন,“হয়তো মুশফিকই কিপার হিসেবে খেলবে। আমিও চেষ্টা করবো কিছু ম্যাচে কিপিং করতে। অবশ্য প্র্যাকটিস তো কেউ কেড়ে নিতে পারবে না।”
জাতীয় দলের প্রশিক্ষণ শিবিরে অমি এই প্রথম। সব কিছুই তার কাছে নতুন। সবকিছু দারুণ উপভোগ্যও হয়ে উঠেছে তরুণ ক্রিকেটারের সামনে,“জাতীয় দলের হয়ে এর আগে ম্যাচ খেলেছি। কিন্তু প্রশিক্ষণ ক্যাম্প করিনি। এই প্রথম প্র্যাক্টিসের সুযোগ পেয়েছি। খুবই ভালো লাগছে। প্রতিটি সেশন অনেকটা সময় ধরে হচ্ছে। বিশেষ করে ফিল্ডিং, ব্যাটিং, উইকেট কিপিং।”
অমির দৃষ্টিতে প্র্যাকটিসের সুযোগ সুবিধা যথেষ্ট। অনেকটা সময় ধরে একেকটি সেশন হচ্ছে। ফিল্ডিং কোচেরও প্রশংসা করলেন অমি,“আমাদের ফিল্ডিং কোচ ছোট ছোট স্কিল নিয়ে কাজ করছেন। কিছুদিন পরে হবে কঠোর অনুশীলন। উনি যখন স্পেশালিস্ট ফিল্ডিং কোচ অবশ্যই ভালো কিছু হবে। সব দিক মিলিয়ে এবার পরিপূর্ণ একটি দল মনে হচ্ছে আমার কাছে।”
ব্যাক লিফট এবং সুইংয়ে কিছুটা সমস্যা ধরা পড়েছে। শুধরে নিলেই পাক্কা ব্যাটসম্যান। বলেন,“ আগে কখনোই এতো ভালো কোচিং পাইনি। জেমির কাছে আমি কৃতজ্ঞ। ব্যাক লিফট, ব্যাক সুইং এই দুটো ঠিক হলে জোরে ব্যাটিং করতে হবে না। আস্তে ঠেলে দিলেই হবে।”
আন্তর্জাতিক ক্রিকেট খেলতে সাহস লাগে। একটু বেশি সাহস। বাকিটা অভিজ্ঞতা আর স্কিল। আর সাহসের ভিত্তি কয়েকটি ভালো ইনিংস খেলা। তার মতে,“ ঘরোয়া ক্রিকেটে লুজবল বেশি থাকে। আন্তর্জাতিক ক্রিকেটে লুজবল একটু কম আসে। ওখানে সাহসটা একটু বেশি দরকার। সাহস কম থাকলে সফল হতে পারবো না।”

Jahurul to take dual role seriously
The Daily Star, August 26, 2010
After Khaled Mashud's long stint, Mushfiqur Rahim came into the scene to stand behind the stumps. But unfortunately the Bogra lad has yet to prove his worth as a wicketkeeper, rather his inconsistent performance caused a concern for the team think-tank, especially ahead of the 2011 World Cup where Bangladesh is one of co-hosts along with India and Sri Lanka.
Given this circumstance, many were curiously watching Jahurul Islam's hard work donning his wicketkeeping gloves at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur.
Is there any message for Jahurul to be considered as an alternative 'keeper?
"Actually I'm working hard with my keeping because I want to give best service as a wicketkeeper if needed. I also enjoy keeping," said Jahurul.
The 23-year-old batsman was also looking forward to establish himself as an all-rounder, akin to Adam Gilchrist and Mahendra Singh Dhoni.
"I'm taking wicketkeeping seriously and I want to establish myself as a wicketkeeper-batsman. I will play Premier League and the National Cricket League as a specialist wicketkeeper," confirmed Jahurul.
"I started my career as a specialist batsman and I played in the domestic cricket as a specialist batsman but kept wickets often. Now on I have a target to perform the keeping regularly. I have a dream to establish myself as an all-rounder," he added.
But there is an every chance that he would have to fight with Mushfiqur even in the domestic circuit for a regular keeping spot as both are likely to continue their stint with Biman Bangladesh in the Premier League.
"I'm very much aware of the fact. In that case we can share the job. But this season I will desperately try to play as a wicketkeeper-batsman," he said.
Though Jahurul has so far played three Tests and six one-day internationals, this was for the first time he had the opportunity to practice in a training camp prior to any series. The Tigers have been training under the guidance of Jamie Siddons for the upcoming five-match one-day series against New Zealand in October.
A right-handed batsman, Jahurul, was drafted into the Bangladesh Test squad during the home series against England earlier this year following Rokibul Hasan's shock retirement.
"I was suddenly drafted into the national side and then played series and tournament one after another. I didn't get the opportunity earlier to take part in a training camp before any series. It's a fantastic experience and I am enjoying it. The facilities are excellent and one can't compare this experience with any other," said an excited Jahurul.
Jahurul however believe that one should have the courage to be successful in the international cricket.
"International cricket is totally different from others. I have some problem with my batting like lifting the bat and my bat swing. Still I was successful in the domestic cricket but I must rectify all those problems if I want to be a good batsman at the highest level," said Jahurul.
"But above everything I think someone has to have the courage to be successful in international cricket," he added.

I like Omi,he is a hard worker,got some skill with glooves & bat,very confident while playing shots.
I believe as a wktkeeper batsman he will be more successful than Mushy in ODIs.
As a test batsman Mushy is impressive but I'm counting on Jahurul too.
With Jahurul & Rakibul we will have a stronger top/middle order batting line up, ,I don't see Ash getting any chance as Junaid also showing some consistency.

If he is not a keeper, why we want to make him one? Why can't we take an specialist wk, who is also good with Bat? WK needs to be specialist.

Being an WK batsman will ruin his career. For some reason, Mushfiq will never be dropped and will always be considered as a wicket keeper. So, for Jahur being a batsman is easier to get into the team.

^^^^but it will be good to have him around,some healthy competition for mushy and also our middle order batsmen as jahurul seems to be pretty solid till he ereaches that jinxed 40 runs mark!seems like mushy will be facing some serious competion both in the national team and also biman!

Having an extra skill can not harm Jahurul. His keeping looked way more than decent in England, he has good reflexes and is a good fielder. Also Mushy and Jahurul can swap places at times to just freshen things up

Interestingly our only odi win against a top 8 team this year has been when Jahurul has worn the gloves. I think he will provide healthy competition for Mushy with the gloves the one day team team. I can see Saghir competing as well for wk role but only in Tests. It'll be interewsting to see how Mushy fairs with the bat once relieved of his wk duties in poarticulkar in tests.

^^in that match Jarule also scored a 40 I guess,maybe it's to early to judge & compare him to Mushy but his wkping won't be as worse as Mushy.
I'm positive abt his batting but expecting him to score 50+.

I want Mushfiqur to be played as a specialist batsman. He is a good technical batsman and a top order material. Wicketkeeping is burden for him and he is being wasted in no7 position.
Jahurul on the other hand a better prospect for keeping and his little cameos of 30-40 runs are perfectly suited for no7-8 position.

Omi wants to do this because he thinks he can. We as in the management is not forcing him to become one, he is taking on the responsibility himself. I'm sure Naem didn't want to become a bowling all rounder but our management made him into to one anyway. But in this case its different. He is the one who wants to take on this extra responsibility no one is forcing him. I have no problem with it. If he thinks he can handle it good for him. If he is smart enough to think he can handle it, I believe he is also smart enough to figure out if it ends up being too much for him. Good luck omi.

i think that if jahurul becomes a full time keeper for our team then this order of playing XI should be a strong team:
tamim
imrul
junaeed
mushy/rokibul
jahurul
riyad
shakib
Mash
Shafiul
Rubel(or an allrounder can come after shakib.shuvo or naeem though i would prefer having him up the order but due to lac of space he hast bat down the order)

That means half the match is lost.
In my para-cricket, I have lost 70% of the matches because of bad fielding and as a bowler I am at the receiving end of the pain.

That's not a bad team. It would be interesting to see how mushy does with the bat in the test format as he can concentrate solely on his batting and look at playing a long innings. He could come in at #4 with Jahurul coming at #7 or #8 depending how many bowlers we pick.
Some said after the knock he made against England in both innings in the test match in Bangladesh that he had a very good technique and solid defense. We would really be able to see how good a test batsman he is once relieved of the wking duties. This could do wonders to our batting.

We all hyped him up and it was a bit of an anti-climax in the end.
