When he showed brilliant anticipation to take two steps to his right as Sri Lanka’s keeper-batsman Niroshan Dickwella got down on one knee to sweep Shakib Al Hasan in the 60th over and then pouched the deflection off the bat to send his opposite number on his way, Bangladesh captain Mushfiqur Rahim became the 41st wicketkeeper in Test history and the first Bangladesh wicketkeeper to reach 100 Test dismissals.

Former Bangladesh Under-19 pacer Mohammad Saifuddin and fast bowler Abul Hasan will fly out to Colombo tomorrow to take part in the one-day warm-up game on March 22 ahead of the limited-overs leg of Bangladesh’s tour of Sri Lanka, which starts with the first ODI on March 25 in Dambulla.

Bangladesh ODI and T20I captain Mashrafe Bin Mortaza along with three members of ODI squad for the Sri Lanka series left for Colombo from Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport, Dhaka today.

Sri Lanka reached 268 for 8 in 100 overs and led Bangladesh by 139 runs in their second innings when the umpires called stumps on day-4 of the second Test of the series at Colombo’s P Sara Oval today.

It was once a major event in the domestic cricket scene, but the attraction of the players' transfer for the Dhaka Premier Division Cricket League has gradually diminished, with the focus shifting to international cricket.

Things have not been so great for Imrul Kayes of late. He picked up an injury while batting well in Wellington in January, and an aggravation of that injury kept him out of Bangladesh's maiden Test in India in February.

After an ending like yesterday's, when Bangladesh lost three wickets inside the last four overs to hand the initiative back to the Sri Lankans, one can imagine the dressing room full of people at sixes and sevens trying to convince someone to come out to the press conference and provide an explanation for the events.

Bangladesh’s 100th Test at the P Sara Oval in Colombo this morning, started on a special note before a pre-match ceremony to mark the auspicious occasion.

Bangladesh captain Mashrafe Bin Mortaza guffawed as Courtney Walsh apparently said something funny, with Tamim Iqbal

Newly appointed bowling coach of Bangladesh, West Indies legend Courtney Walsh breaks the ice with cricketers at the practice session at Mirpur.

Former Pakistan pacer Waqar Younis was asked to pick 11 players from the modern game and make a modern One Day International World 11 and the only Bangladeshi to feature in the side was 20-year-old pacer Mustafizur Rahman.

Bangladesh's new bowling coach Courtney Walsh has said that he hopes that he can pass on the spirit that he and Curtly Ambrose had shared during their playing days to the Bangladeshi pacers. He also said that he wants to be a father figure and mentor to the Bangladeshi players rather than just being a coach.

It has been revealed that Bangladesh opener Tamim Iqbal has injured his left hand and is expected to be out of action for at least three weeks.

It will be fair to say that Bangladesh cricket has not seen the likes of Mustafizur Rahman in its short history. It will be a little more contentious to say that the world has not seen a bowler like him in recent times.

On this International Mother’s Day, our Bangladesh National team cricketers convey warm wishes to all the mothers in the world through their official Facebook page.

Bangladesh left-arm wonder Mustafizur Rahman is chosen by Cricket Australia in their IPL team of the tournament.

Bangladesh cricketer Soumya Sarkar is currently leading the table of ‘Best Catches in the ICC World T20, 2016’.

Suspension of Taskin has been upheld by a judicial commissioner. Taskin can now apply to ICC for a reassessment of his bowling action.

Mustafizur Rahman Khan, a lawyer for Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) observes that Bangladesh pacer Taskin Ahmed can at best be warned and not suspended as per the Independent Analysis report of Taskin's bowling action.

The suspension of Bangladesh ace pacer Taskin Ahmed for “illegal bowling action” has sparked widespread criticism from experts and fans of Bangladesh cricket both at home and abroad.
