Shamsur Rahman

A right-handed batsman, Shamsur Rahman played for the Under- 19s, Academy side and A Team before earning a national call-up, when he was included in the squad for the World Twenty20 in England in 2009, but didn't get a game. Nicknamed Shuvo, he was the leading run-scorer in the one-day competition for Dhaka Division that season. He was in good touch the following season as well, where he averaged 67 against South Africa A. He was soon asked to join the Bangladesh Test squad after two key members were hit by fitness worries.
