1. 2015 World Cup:

Mahmudullah Riyad and Rubel Hossain played a major part in eliminating England from the competition, which meant Bangladesh reached the knockouts for the first time. After his 103 against England, Mahmudullah did one better, with a classy unbeaten 128 against New Zealand. Bangladesh’s World Cup campaign ended against India but not before a controversy about the no-ball called by umpire Aleem Dar when Rohit Sharma was caught on 90.
