Another of the long battery of left arm spinners in Bangladesh, Mohammad Nazmul Islam has oodles of talent. His stump-to-stump line and ability to turn the ball from a flatter trajectory makes him a very handy limited-overs bowler. He has played for the Bangladesh Under-21s, Bangladesh Under-23s, Barisal Burners, Chittagong Division, Dhaka Division and Kalabagan Cricket Academy before making his foray into the national side. Nazmul made his first-class debut for the Dhaka Division against the Khulna Division in February 2010. He picked up 4 wickets in that game. Since then, he has performed well in the National League and is an integral part of the Dhaka Division team. Apart from being successful in white-ball cricket, Nazmul has also enjoyed a good first-class career thus far, making him open to a Test call up as well at some point. Switching to the longest format is still some time away for Nazmul who made his international debut in 2018 in February 2018. Apart from being steady with the ball, he hogged the limelight for his theatrical celebrations, notably the 'Naagin Dance' which became a rage after senior player Mushfiqur Rahim also took up the act. These are still early days in Nazmul's career but the selectors do seem to have faith him. However, with stiff competition, especially in the spin department, Nazmul cannot afford to put a foot wrong. By Hariprasad Sadanandan As of September 2018
