Top Ten ODI Cricket Captains of Bangladesh

Mashrafe Mortaza recently took over the captaincy from Shakib-al-Hasan in One Day Internationals. He has been an all-rounder in the Bangladesh team for quite sometime now and has played really well for the team. Due to frequent injuries, he was unavailable for a little while and had been replaced as the captain. But now he has been given his position back.

The pressure on the captain is always the most, as whatever goes wrong or right in the match, comes upon him. Mashrafe Mortaza being the more mature player fit the bill better, because he was the one who knew how to handle all the pressure that comes along with being the captain. Though he is fit now, many feel that his experience might help him pull through. Best ODI captains of Bangladesh are:

1. Shakib-al-Hasan
2. Habibul Bashar
3. Mashrafe Mortaza
4. Mohammad Ashraful
5. Khaled Mashud
6. Aminul Islam
7. Akram Khan
8. Khaled Mahmud
9. Gazi Ashraf
10. Naimur Rahman

Bangladesh Cricket Team is younger than other seasoned Cricket Teams in ODI cricket. However, Bangladesh Cricket Team has shown tremendous improvement in their performance in recent years. This cricket team is now considered as one of the toughest among the new Test status cricket teams in the world.

Top Ten Catchers / Fielders of Bangladesh in Test Cricket

Bangladesh received the test status in 2000 and ever since they have been improving, but it has not been consistent, which is why it’s not considered as some major improvements. They have had a few wins, but because they have been spaced out, they are not proving as heavy wins which could change their numbers on the charts as a team.

Bangladesh needs to be more aggressive in the fielding sector, so that all the blame does not come down on fielding, as that is not the only main point.

Bangladesh is a strong team, as they have shown in their recent game against India, where at one point, it was a threat to that team. Top ten fielders of Bangladesh are:

1. Mohammad Ashraful
2. Habibul Bashar
3. Rajin Saleh
4. Imrul Kayes
5. Shahriar Nafees
6. Junaid Siddique
7. Al Sahariar
8. Nasir Hossein
9. Mashrafe Mortaza
10. Tamim Iqbal

One day Internationals are the actual test of cricket unlike the 20-twenty cup. This actually tests the endurance levels of its players. If someone is interested in actual play, then One Day Internationals are the way.

The fielding of Bangladesh in One Day Internationals has been good and so have their throws, which have been errorless and strong. Catching in the deep has also been fair except for a few drops, which are a part of every game and can be forgiven.

Slip fielding positioning needs to be improved in the Bangladesh team as that is one of the important positions, which requires a mentally alert player as a quick dismissal is then possible. Top ten fielders of Bangladesh in ODI are:

1. Mashrafe Mortaza
2. Mohammad Ashraful
3. Aftab Ahmed
4. Mohammad Rafique
5. Habibul Bashar
6. Alok Kapali
7. Tamim Iqbal
8. Shakib Al Hasan
9. Abdur Razzak
10. Khaled Mahmud

Twenty-20 format is more for entertainment purpose as it doesn’t really test the abilities of the players. No doubt it makes for an interesting watch, but for one who’s only interested in the real game of cricket will not enjoy it as much.

Bangladesh in the recent Twenty-20 matches has shown very dismal performances, one can conclude this by their sloppy fielding on the field. Even the bowling was moderate which didn’t leave any chance of winning for the team.

The mediocre fielding didn’t put any pressure on the opponent team thus having them make an embarrassing exit. To make it again to the top they need to show a lot more determination. Top ten fielders of Bangladesh in T20 are:

1. Mahmudullah
2. Aftab Ahmed
3. Shakib Al Hasan
4. Farhad Reza
5. Mohammad Ashraful
6. Alok Kapali
7. Abdur Razzak
8. Tamim Iqbal
9. Jahurul Islam
10. Shahriar Nafees

Profile for Bangladesh team

Bangladesh cricket team is not the strongest amongst 2011 World Cup teams but they can certainly provide a tough fight to any opposition team. The world has seen their best performance in recent times when they went on to win the test as well as one day series in West Indies under the captainship of Mashrafe Mortaza. The team has a real strength in form of Shakib Al Hasan, who is a real all-rounder talent and they have the quality batting experience of their former captain Mohammad Ashraful. Mashrafe Mortaza is a proven fast bowler where as Shakib Al Hasan can take up a lead role in taking the wickets of opposition team.
The Bangladesh team had given their best World Cup performance in 2007 cricket World Cup when they beat India and reached to the Super Six round with their strong performance. They also have the talents like Tamim Iqbal, Junaid Siddiquie, and Shahadat Hossain who have played consistently for Bangladesh. Their strength lies in their team work to win the matches. Once in their career, they have beaten the world champions Australia.
Due to lack of their experience in the international cricket, inconsistency and inability to handle the pressure, they haven’t been successful like other teams. But, they can surely provide challenge to the other teams playing with Bangladesh.
