10. Mashrafe Mortaza (C)
Mashrafe Mortaza has been a torchbearer of Bangladesh cricket for the last 18 years. The Narail Express inspired many to take up fast bowling in the country. The 36-year-old is currently the Tigers’ leading wicket-taker in ODIs with 265 wickets from 215 matches.
He has undergone quite a few surgeries on his knees, but despite that, has continued serving his nation with all his dedication. 2019 wasn’t kind enough for him though. In May, the veteran picked up a couple of three-wicket hauls against the West Indies and looked in good rhythm.
The World Cup turned out to be disastrous for Mashrafe, who got only the solitary wicket of Jonny Bairstow. In fact, in the last 10 ODIs, Mortaza went wicketless in nine matches. He hasn’t played international cricket ever since the World Cup.
