62.83 Tamim's batting average in ODI cricket between April 2015 and December 2018.

Tamim scored 2325 runs in that 45-month period, with seven hundreds in 44 innings.

6 Men with a double-century in Test cricket, a 150 in ODIs and a hundred in T20Is, including Tamim. Only Chris Gayle and Brendon McCullum were part of this elite list when Tamim completed the treble in 2016, while Rohit Sharma, David Warner and Virat Kohli made their way into it later.

5134 Test runs for Tamim, the second-most for Bangladesh, only behind Mushfiqur Rahim's 5553. Tamim was their highest Test run-getter between 2015 and 2020 before Mushfiqur took over.

206 Tamim's highest Test score, against Pakistan in Khulna in 2015. He shared a 312-run opening stand with Imrul Kayes during that knock which is the highest opening partnership for any team in their second innings.

450 Innings out of 451 where Tamim opened the batting. The only instance of him not opening was in the first innings of the Potchefstroom Test against South Africa in 2017. He batted at No. 5 then, after being off the field for most of the session before Bangladesh's innings.
