Asia Cup 2023: Bangladesh's Strongest XI
Bangladesh named a 17-member squad for the forthcoming continental tournament
6. Mushfiqur Rahim
Mushfiqur Rahim is the most experienced player in the current Bangladesh side. In his vast 18-year career, the wicketkeeper-batter has given top-notch services to his team. It was under his captaincy in 2012 when Bangladesh qualified for the final for the first time and ended their journey as runners-up.
In 2018, when Bangladesh concluded their campaign as runners-up for the third time in the continental tournament, the veteran player became the most-successful batter for the Bangla side in the competition. Scoring 302 runs with a century and a fifty in five matches, he ended up as the third-most successful batter in the competition.
Rahim is the leading run-getter for the Bangla side in the Asia Cup (ODI format), scoring 699 runs in 21 matches at a strike rate of 84.52. The upcoming Asia Cup installment might become his last appearance in this prestigious tournament, and looking forward to that, his endeavours will be to utilise his experience and talent to help Bangladesh win the series.
