Veteran Batter Smashes Bangladesh Sri Lanka Record
On June 17, 2025, at Galle International Stadium, veteran batsman Mushfiqur Rahim once again etched his name into Bangladesh cricket history with an unbeaten 105 against Sri Lanka. That century took his aggregate in Sri Lankan Tests to 755 runs, surpassing Mohammad Ashraful’s longstanding mark to become Bangladesh’s highest Test run-scorer in the island nation.
Earlier that day, Mushfiqur had combined with skipper Najmul Hossain Shanto in a record fourth-wicket stand of 247 runs, rescuing the Tigers from 45 for 3 to a commanding 292 for 3 at stumps. His composed anchor role and Shanto’s aggressive counterattacking laid the perfect platform, with Bangladesh fans hailing it as one of their proudest overseas performances in years.
Zimbabwe Complete Away Test Win over Bangladesh
In Sylhet this past April, Zimbabwe produced a memorable performance to clinch a first-Test victory on Bangladeshi soil since 2021. Zimbabwe secured a three-wicket victory on the fourth day, largely thanks to Blessing Muzarabani’s career-high 6 for 72 and Brian Bennett’s resilient 54.
Chasing a modest target of 174, Zimbabwe weathered a scare at 128 for 7 before Madhevere and Ngarava steadied the chase. The win not only showcased Zimbabwe’s growing confidence but also exposed cracks in Bangladesh’s middle order, prompting intense discussion among local fans about selection and strategy ahead of future home series.
Bangladesh to Host Pakistan for Three T20Is

Talks between the Bangladesh Cricket Board and Pakistan Cricket Board have reached an advanced stage, and both boards see this series as prime preparation for the 2026 T20 World Cup. With high expectations on both sides, fans can look forward to electrifying contests featuring star all rounders and fiery pace duels.
