Rishad Hossain is a promising right-arm leg-break bowler who has quickly made a name for himself in Bangladesh’s cricketing landscape. In a country where quality leg-spinners have been scarce, Rishad has provided a fresh and exciting option in Bangladesh’s bowling attack.



Rishad began his professional career with his first-class debut in 2018 for North Zone, where he picked up a couple of wickets in the second innings. A year later, he stepped into the T20 circuit, playing for Khelaghar Samaj Kallyan Samity. His performances soon earned him a place in the Rangpur team for the 2019-20 Bangladesh T20 League, showcasing his talent in the shortest format.



His List A debut came in 2022, and he continued to impress in the domestic T20 leagues, cementing his reputation as a dependable white-ball bowler. He was also part of the Bangladesh team that won the Bronze medal in the Asian Games, adding an international accolade to his growing career.



In 2023, Rishad’s consistent performances earned him his T20I debut against Ireland. He made an impact immediately, bowling an economical spell of 3 overs for just 19 runs, while also picking up a wicket. Later that year, he played his first ODI during Bangladesh’s white-ball tour of New Zealand, marking his entry into the 50-over format.



The year 2024 proved to be a breakthrough one for Rishad. In a T20I match against Sri Lanka, he showcased his batting prowess, smashing a 53-run knock off 30 balls, his maiden T20I half-century. His all-round ability added another dimension to his game.



His biggest achievement came during the 2024 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, where he was a key player for Bangladesh. Rishad ended the tournament as Bangladesh’s highest wicket-taker, claiming 14 wickets in just 7 games, proving his worth as a match-winner on the global stage.



With his unique skill set, Rishad Hossain is shaping up to be a crucial player for Bangladesh, especially in limited-overs cricket. His ability to turn the ball, control the game in the middle overs, and contribute with the bat makes him a valuable asset.
