Rating the Bangladesh Test captains so far

S Sam
Khaled
Khaled Mashud had a 100% loss record with Bangladesh over three years

3 Mashrafe Mortaza

Bangladesh v India - ICC Champions Trophy Semi Final

Mashrafe Mortaza is the only Bangladesh captain with a 100% win record but that can be ignored since he has only captained in 1 Test. However, what cannot be ignored is that he led Bangladesh to their first ever Test ever victory on foreign soil when they beat an inexperienced West Indies side in 2009.

That particular achievement will always make Murtaza one of the iconic Bangladesh captains. However, his struggles with his knee injury and overall fitness made it close to impossible for Murtaza to last over 5 days in Test matches.

Considering his achievements as a limited overs captain, it can be said that Murtaza could have achieved a lot more as the nation’s Test captain for at least a few years.
