Mushfiqur Rahim has been among the team’s top batsmen

Wicket-keeper batsman Mushfiqur Rahim has been one of the key players in the Bangladeshi batting line-up for at least a decade now. Rahim has been known for his significant contributions to the team’s cause and has won them quite a few matches across different formats.

The diminutive right-hander has played 162 ODIs in which he has scored nearly 4000 runs at an average of 31.15. This number increases quite substantially to 40.64 in 73 matches that Bangladesh have won with him featuring on the side.

It is a similar story for Rahim in Test cricket, where he averages 40.45 in victories compared to 32.31 overall, and T20Is as well, where this ratio is 18.83 as opposed to 17.57. Mushfiqur Rahim has also starred in some of his country’s famous wins including those over India and England in the 2007 and 2015 editions of the World Cup respectively.
