Even though he is not the highest-ranked batsman for Bangladesh in Tests in 2018, 27-year-old Mominul Haque had a remarkable show with the willow in the outgoing year. He gathered 673 runs in eight matches and 15 innings at an average of nearly 45 and hit four hundreds during the year, including two in one Test against Sri Lanka in January, finishing only after Kohli who has five.

His other two hundreds came against Zimbabwe and Windies and all four were scored at home. This has been the best year in Mominul’s Test career which started in 2013. He is the sixth highest run-getter for Bangladesh in Tests and his country’s best batsman in terms of average which is above 44 and it makes him one of the Tigers’ prime middle-order batsmen.

Though he is yet to become the top-ranked batsman in Tests from Bangladesh, his performance in 2018 saw him leaping 11 spots to the 24th rank in the ICC’s list. He is ranked 27th at the moment, three places behind captain Shakib Al Hasan.
