Bangladesh wicketkeeper-batter Mushfiqur Rahim became the first cricketer to play 100th match in Bangladesh Premier League (BPL).
Mushfiqur is playing the field in the jersey of Sylhet Strikers in the ongoing BPL. Mushfiq is having a great time winning four consecutive matches for Sylhet. Mushfiqur touched the milestone of playing 100th match in BPL history when he stepped on the field against Dhaka Dominators in Sylhet’s fourth consecutive victory match.
Mushfiq has been playing since the first season of BPL which started in 2012. Earlier today Mushi scored the second highest 2582 runs in the tournament history by participating in 99 matches of BPL. Tamim Iqbal tops all with 2676 runs in 81 matches.
Mushfiqur’s batting average in BPL is 37.97. Mushir has 16 half-centuries despite not scoring any century in BPL. His highest score is 98. Mushfiqur has 57 catches and 10 stampings behind the wicket.
As a player, Mushfiqur has yet to taste the BPL title. Even if he played the final once, he had to be satisfied with being the runner-up.
After Mushfiqur, opener Enamul Haque Vijay has played the second highest number of 96 matches in BPL. Sylhet captain Mashrafe Bin Mortuza has played the third highest 95 matches in this season.
Mushfiqur retired from international T20 last year. He has 1500 runs in 102 T20s for the country. In total, Mushfiqur scored 5081 runs in 245 T20Is.
