Team-wise one under-rated cricketer of all-time
Cricketers who were never considered a priority by the team.
9) Bangladesh- Mushfiqur Rahim
Mushfiqur Rahim is arguably one of the most underrated keepers in the history of cricket. Despite being the “Mr. Consistent” of Bangladesh, he hasn’t really got the appreciation he deserves. The former Bangladeshi captain happens to have scored the most number of double hundreds by a wicketkeeper in Test cricket.
He became the only keeper to score two double hundreds when he scored his second double hundred against Zimbabwe in 2018. One must not forget the fact that he has a batting average of 36 in both, Tests as well as ODIs which is more than decent. He also happens to be an absolute livewire behind the stumps.
One of the major reasons why he isn’t appreciated as much as he should is because of his off-field antics such as his tweet trolling India when they lost in the semis during the T20 World Cup in 2016. Besides, his over-excited nature has often been criticized. Nevertheless, one can’t disagree with the fact that the wicketkeeper-batsman is one of the grittiest players to have ever played for Bangladesh.
