Profile

Wisden overview
Mushfiqur Rahman's international career stuttered, along with his country's fortunes, when he toured Zimbabwe in 2000-01, in the early days of Bangladesh's Test status. In two matches, he failed to take a wicket or reach double-figures, and was omitted from the selectors' thoughts for the next two years. In 2003, however, he returned with a sturdier batting technique and a strong desire for success, and became - almost overnight - one of the cornerstones of Dav Whatmore's new regime. He produced two important innings to put the wind up England in the inaugural Test in October 2003, before winning the Man of the Series award (and a motorised scooter ...) in the subsequent one-dayers, where his guileless but accurate seam bowling was one of the few bright spots of a bleak campaign. His dedication to the cause, and his desire for self-improvement have marked Mushfiqur out as a future candidate for the captaincy. Andrew Miller (June 2004)
