Randy Red Comment on Bangladesh and the Series against Australia, on the eve of the 1st Test.

We have been working hard, I have faith in Bangladesh.
when people hear the team Australia they already feel they will be defeated.
Australia can be defeated, we just need to play our game serious.
We must bat and bowl with full confident and i know we will at least make it hard for the Aussie.
It wouldn't be an easy task, but these young Boy have the passion for Cricket. They put 100% in the Game. All I can say is, Australia watch out because, these boy are ready for you.
