Mushfiqur Rahim is the first from Bangladesh to make 7,000 Test runs
The wicketkeeper-batter is already Bangladesh’s most-capped Test player and holds the country’s record for Test hundreds.
Mushfiqur Rahim became the first Bangladesh batter to score 7,000 runs in Test cricket on 9 November.
He was already Bangladesh’s highest run-scorer in Tests. He has also played more Tests than any other Bangladesh cricketer, and has scored more Test hundreds for his country than anyone else.
In one-day internationals, Mushfiqur has 7,795 runs for Bangladesh, second only to Tamim Iqbal’s 8,357.
Mushfiqur made his Test debut in 2005, and has played both as wicketkeeper and as a specialist batter.
