Bangladeshi
cricketer

batsman
and
wicket-keeper
in the national team.
Mushfiqur started his international career in 2005 against
England

Sachin Tendulkar
, to play Test cricket at
Lord's Cricket Stadium.

He continued to make consistent contributions down the order with the bat and was more than competent as a keeper for Bangladesh's spin dominated attack.

He is one of the best run scorers as a wicketkeeper who has 11,000 runs and 400+ dismissals.
[6]
According to
Jamie Siddons
, the former coach of Bangladesh, Mushfiqur Rahim's batting is so versatile that he can bat anywhere in the
top order
, from one to six. He is also rated as one of the consistent performers and one of the few keepers to score 1000+ runs in every format.
[7]
He is the
highest individual scorer
for Bangladesh in Test cricket.

He is the first and only wicketkeeper-batsman in the history of Test cricket to score two double-hundreds.

[11]
[12]
He is also the first and only Bangladeshi batsman to score three double-hundreds in Tests.
[14]
Mushfiqur is the only Bangladeshi player to win 150 international matches.

International career
[
edit
]
Mushfiqur Rahim was selected for Bangladesh's
tour of England
in 2005. It was Bangladesh's first tour of England, where they faced unfamiliar conditions and the batsmen struggled against
seam bowling
and uneven bounce throughout the series. Mushfiqur adapted his batting style in the warm up matches, "consistently playing late and straight" according to
Wisden
, and managed to score 63 against
Sussex
and scored 115
not out
against
Northamptonshire
in the warm up matches.
[43]
Although initially named in the squad as a part-time wicket-keeper, his performances in the warm up matches led to his selection for the first Test at
Lord's
as a specialist batsman as well. The 17-year-old Mushfiqur Rahim scored 19 in the first innings and was one of just three batsman to reach double figures as Bangladesh were dismissed for 108. After twisting his ankle, he did not play any further in the tour.
[44]
Mushfiqur Rahim was included in Bangladesh's squad to
tour Zimbabwe
for five ODIs in 2006. He was one of three uncapped ODI players included in the squad alongside all-rounders
Farhad Reza
and
Shakib Al Hasan
.
[45]
He scored his maiden half-century at
Harare
against
Zimbabwe
.
[46]
His good performances led him to picked as the first-choice wicket-keeper ahead of
Khaled Mashud
for the
World Cup in the West Indies
.
[47]
Mushfiqur Rahim was recalled for the second Test against
Sri Lanka
in July 2007, replacing Mashud.
[48]
Although Bangladesh lost by an innings and 90 runs, Mushfiqur Rahim combined with
Mohammad Ashraful
? the new captain ? to score a record 191 for Bangladesh's sixth-wicket partnership.
[49]
[50]
In December 2007, the
Bangladesh Cricket Board
(BCB) granted Mushfiqur Rahim a one-year grade B (third tier) contract, one of 22 central contracts with the Board at the time.
[51]
Following the
2007 ICC Cricket World Cup
, Mushfiqur Rahim endured a series of poor scores, including five innings in which he amassed four runs altogether.
[52]
As a result, when South Africa
toured in March
for three ODIs and Bangladesh went to Pakistan for five ODIs
the next month
, Mushfiqur Rahim was dropped in favour of
Dhiman Ghosh
.
[53]
Mushfiqur Rahim was recalled to the squad for a tri-series with Pakistan and India and the
2008 Asia Cup
.
[54]
When 17 contracts were announced in April 2009, Mushfiqur Rahim's was renewed,
[55]
marking Mushfiqur Rahim as Bangladesh's first choice 'keeper.
Retirement
[
edit
]
Mushfiqur Rahim announced his retirement from T20Is on September 4, 2022. Mushfiqur Rahim took to his official Twitter account to make the announcement, insisting that he will now be focusing on ODIs and Tests. Mushfiqur Rahim's decision came just over a month before the scheduled start of the T20 World Cup in Australia.
[56]
Captaincy records
[
edit

Vice-captaincy
[
edit
]
Mushfiqur Rahim was appointed vice-captain for Bangladesh's
tour of Zimbabwe
in August 2009. The position was vacated as the previous holder,
Shakib Al Hasan
, was filling-in as captain for the injured
Mashrafe Mortaza
.
[57]
Bangladesh won the five match ODI series 4?1. In the final ODI, Mushfiqur Rahim scored 98, beating his previous highest score in list A matches of 58, to help his team to victory.
[58]
With 169 runs in the series at an average of 56.33, Mushfiqur Rahim finishes the tour as Bangladesh's fourth-highest run scorer.
[59]
Mushfiqur Rahim retained the vice-captaincy for the home Test series against India in January and February 2010. On 21 January, in the fifth day of the first Test, he scored his maiden Test century and the fastest by a Bangladeshi in Test cricket, off only 112 balls as Bangladesh delayed an Indian victory, being the last man out as India won by 113 runs.
[60]
England
toured Bangladesh
in February and March for two Tests and three ODIs, where Bangladesh lost all two formats.
[61]
[62]
[63]
In the series, Mushfiqur Rahim was his team's second-highest run-scorer.
[64]
[65]
He scored two half-centuries in the first Test, becoming the 6th Bangladesh batsman to perform the feat.
[66]
Having impressed at home, Mushfiqur Rahim's performance in the return tour
in England
in May was expected to be crucial for the rankings.
[67]
In the tour, Mushfiqur Rahim could managed 40 runs from two Tests as Bangladesh's batsmen struggled in English conditions and slumped to a 2?0 defeat.
[68]
In the first ODI of the tour Mushfiqur Rahim was struck in the face while keeping wicket to spinner
Faisal Hossain
. An x-ray revealed no fractures, however as a precaution he was rested for a week, missing the rest of the series.
[69]
In November 2010, BCB announced 16 central contracts. Mushfiqur Rahim was one of six players in the top level.
[70]
In December 2010,
Tamim Iqbal
replaced Mushfiqur Rahim as Bangladesh's vice-captain.
[71]
Mushfiqur Rahim was included in Bangladesh's 15-man squad for the 2011 World Cup.
[72]
Bangladesh were knocked out in the group stage and Mushfiqur Rahim had a poor tournament personally. There were suggestions that he could be dropped, especially as fellow wicket-keeper Dhiman Ghosh was scoring heavily in Bangladesh's domestic competition.
[73]
In August 2011, Mushfiqur hit 101 from 100 balls having his second century against Zimbabwe was not enough to stop Bangladesh losing the third one-day series by five runs.

[83]
On 11 March 2013, during the first test of the
tour of Sri Lanka
in Galle, Mushfiqur Rahim became the first Bangladeshi to score a double hundred, beating the previous highest of 190 set by Mohammed Ashraful earlier in the day.
[84]
Mushfiqur Rahim announced his resignation as captain on 8 May 2013,
[85]
but a few days later Mushfiqur announced he had made a "mistake", and on 3 July 2013 the
BCB
announced they would be retaining Mushfiqur as captain until the end of the year.
[86]
Mushfiqur Rahim continued his captaincy in 2014 and

[103]
During the

at
Basin Reserve
in January 2017, Mushfiqur Rahim was hit on the back of the helmet on the fifth day of match and immediately taken to hospital. The incident took place in the 43rd over of Bangladesh's second innings when
Tim Southee
