Profile

Shafiul Islam, a right-arm fast bowler, forced his way into the first-class scene in 2007 and was immediately in the thick of the action. After taking five wickets on debut, he very nearly steered his side, Rajshahi Division, to an improbable win with the bat. Islam's abilities with the new ball soon made the Bangladesh talent spotters take note. An average of just over 25 in his first two seasons on the benign tracks of Bangladesh, and injuries to senior pacemen including Mashrafe Mortaza, earned the youngster a call-up to the national ODI squad for the home tri-series against India and Sri Lanka. He made his debut against Sri Lanka in the opening game of the series in January 2010.
