Mehedi Hasan Miraz

Miraz equals Shakib in Test all-rounder’s rankings

Bangladesh all-rounder Mehedi Hasan Miraz has jumped up three places in the Test all-rounder’s rankings after the first Test against West Indies and is jointly third in the rankings alongside Shakib Al Hasan.

Captain Miraz’s all-round test in Antigua

Not often can a cricketer boast reaching a milestone just by stepping onto the field. But on Friday, all-rounder Mehedi Hasan Miraz reached not one but two significant career milestones when he went out for the toss ahead of the first of the two Tests against West Indies in Antigua.

Louis, Athanaze miss out on centuries as Windies edge Tigers on Day 1

Mikyle Louis and Alick Athanaze both fell just short of maiden Test centuries as West Indies reached 250-5 at stumps on the opening day of the first Test of two against Bangladesh on Friday.

Miraz aims to end Tigers’ Caribbean curse in 50th Test

Bangladesh’s Test record against the West Indies stands at four wins in 20 encounters, with just two victories on Caribbean soil -- both in 2009.

Batting concerns dominate as Tigers tackle Windies

Bangladesh take on the West Indies in the first Test in Antigua today, hoping their slightly inexperienced batting line-up can weather the pace storm. Antigua has a strong recent record of making Bangladesh batters suffer.

Bangladesh’s lone warm-up game begins today

The match will begin at 8:00 PM Bangladesh time and is an opportunity for the Tigers to gear up before their final assignment of the ongoing ICC Test Championship 2023-25 cycle – a two-Test series against the West Indies – begins at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in Antigua on November 22.

Thrust into captain's role, Miraz radiates composure

In all likelihood, Miraz, named vice-captain, is set to captain the side in West Indies Tests, taking over duties from Najmul Hossain Shanto, who has been ruled out of the upcoming Tests due to a groin strain. Shanto, who was also unable to play yesterday due to that injury, talked about Miraz’s innings at the interval.

Resilient Riyad defies odds again

Mahmudullah Riyad fell in the nervous nineties for the first time in his international career, but not before the veteran smashed a brilliant run-a-ball 98 to propel Bangladesh to 244 for eight in the series-deciding third ODI against Afghanistan in Sharjah yesterday.

‘The wicket changed all of a sudden’: Miraz blames pitch for batting collapse

Bangladesh all-rounder Mehedi Hasan Miraz claimed that the pitch used for the first ODI of the three-match against Afghanistan on Wednesday changed abruptly to cause a thumping collapse in the Tigers’ batting effort, leading to a 92-run loss at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium.

This was not a Test England lost, but one which Bangladesh won

Tigers have not been given their due for the magnificent manner in which they beat England in a Test match. With a little luck, they could have claimed the series 2-0, and fixed, at least temporarily, the tone of condescension that accompanies them in world cricket.
