#2 Enamul Haque Jnr (12 for 200 against Zimbabwe)

1st Test - Bangladesh v Australia: Day 2
1st Test - Bangladesh v Australia: Day 2

Enamul Haque was a left-handed spinner who played his last international match back in 2013. He is known for his tremendous contribution in Bangladesh's first-ever Test win in Chittagong back in 2005.

In the second match of the same series, he took 12 wickets for 200 runs, and that was Bangladesh's best Test bowling performance in a match until 2016 when Mehidy Hasan overhauled it.

In the first innings of the second Test of the series in Dhaka, Enamul scalped seven wickets for 95 runs as Zimbabwe were dismissed for 298 runs. Bangladesh posted 211 in their first innings. Zimbabwe scored 286 in their second innings. Enamul took another five-wicket in the second innings of Zimbabwe by conceding 105 runs.

Bangladesh drew the match with the help of Nafees Iqbal's famous 470-ball-121. That drawn match earned first-ever Test series win for Bangladesh. The achievement seemed impossible without the tremendous bowling effort of Enamul.
