Bangladesh batter Mominul Haque said the Tigers are aiming for a 300-run target, though they would settle for a slightly lower total after bad light brought an early end to Day 3 of the first Test against Zimbabwe in Sylhet on Tuesday.
Bangladesh cricketers joined a camp in Sylhet today ahead of their two-Test home series against Zimbabwe, starting with the first game at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium on April 20. The Tigers’ jovial mood on the first day of their camp was reflected through a post from pacer Hasan Mahmud on his official Facebook page. The post that included a picture of seven of the 10 players who joined the camp so far was captioned, ‘Ignore Nahid Rana’. Hasan was apparently poking fun at Nahid, who was the odd one out in the picture as the right-arm quick was the only one to be looking away from the camera.
Mominul Haque departed for a six-ball duck in the opening day of Bangladesh’s second Test against West Indies yesterday and in the process also registered an ignominious record.

As someone who has often struggled for consistency, Mominul applied himself better than the rest of the Bangladesh batters.
“In Tests, we see different scenarios. How the game went today, it was like in T20s,” Bangladesh all-rounder Mehedi Hasan Miraz encapsulated what transpired in India’s first innings on day four of the second and final Test at Green Park Stadium in Kanpur yesterday.
Mansur Ali Khan Pataudi, one of India’s greatest, was the last captain to win a toss and elect to bowl in a Kanpur Test. Pataudi opted to take the field against England in 1964. No team since then opted to bowl first in Kanpur that is until current India skipper Rohit Sharma in the ongoing second Test against Bangladesh.
Bangladesh batter Mominul Haque stepped into a challenging situation after opener Zakir Hasan perished following a 24-ball duck, with Jasprit Bumrah leading the Indian attack and keeping a tight grip on the Bangladesh innings on the opening day of the second and final Test in Kanpur yesterday. As Mominul faced 14 deliveries without scoring, there was anxiety perhaps creeping in.
Bangladesh’s Test win at Mount Maunganui against the then World Test champions New Zealand in 2022 would certainly go down as a historic achievement in the Tigers’ history. But even Mominul Haque, the Tigers’ skipper back then, believes that winning a series away from home evokes a very different kind of feeling within the team than what a one-off win produces.
Bangladesh announce a 14-man squad for their upcoming ODI series against India at home scheduled to begin June 18 in Mirpur. Mustafizur Rahman and Litton Das will replace Mahmudullah Riyad and Abul Hasan.
Rain becomes the spoilsport during the 4th day of the Test match between Bangladesh and India at Fatullah stadium.
Having don the test cap nearly two years ago against Australia, Harbhajan Singh has a chance to revive his test career when Bangladesh face India on June 10 at Fatullah.
Bangladesh might have ended the Test series against Pakistan on a dull note having lost the second Test by 328 runs within four days.
Mominul Haque equals the record of 50-plus scores in 11 consecutive test matches of Sir Vivian Richards during the fourth day of the 2nd test match against Pakistan at Mirpur Stadium.
Mominul currently holds the distinction of having the second highest test average in history with 61.85 runs, only second to the great Don Bradman.
