In this quiz, you have to name Bangladesh’s leading run-scorers in Test cricket.
In 2000, Bangladesh became the tenth team to play Test cricket. Their first Test captain was (somewhat unusually for a new team) a spinner who batted outside the top six. In the same Test, however, their No.3 went on to score a Test hundred.
Quiz! How well do you know the famous quintet of Bangladesh cricket?
Bangladesh tried to find their footing in Test cricket in the 2000s. In the first half of that decade, the bulk of their scoring was done by their captain, a venerable middle-order bat; a young talent who arrived in Test cricket with a belligerent hundred on debut; and a dour opener. Later that decade, new batting talents emerged. Their first truly formidable batting line-up consisted of a left-handed opener, a world-class all-rounder, a wicketkeeper, and a batter who bowled some off-breaks.
