Mustafizur Rahman has established himself as a world-class bowler in a very short span of time. He has been very impressive in the limited overs format be it ODIs or T20Is.

For a matter of fact, he is the quickest Bangladeshi to reach 50 ODI wickets. Unfortunately, his bowling prowess has not been the same when it comes to red-ball cricket. 26 wickets from 10 matches don't do justice to his talent and capabilities. He is yet to claim his first five-wicket haul in the longest format.

Mustafizur didn't play in the last Test series against West Indies due to injury and Bangladesh missed their front-line bowler. He came back into the team for the limited overs series and helped his team win the ODI and T20I series.

Mustafizur will be hoping to replicate his limited-overs success in Test cricket. In that case, will pose a real threat to the opposition batsmen.

Mustafizur Rahman in Tests:

Matches - 10, Wickets - 26, Bowling Average - 31.5, 5W - 0
