Currently not in a good touch at all, but still one of my most favourite players of Bangladesh cricket team, Afif Hossain Dhrubo, wishing a very happy birthday to him.
Let's look at some record of this 24 years old boy for Bangladesh
♦️ ODI:
- The highest score by a BD batter in no. 7 (93* vs Afg) followed by Mahmudullah's 75* vs Zim and 74 vs Afg. The fourth highest score of no. 7 batter of Bangladesh also belongs to Afif (72 vs SA)
- Involved in world's second best 7th wicket partnership in ODI. Afif and Miraz added unbeaten 174 in 7rh wicket against Afghanistan. (ODI best 177 by Buttler and Adil Rashid)
- One Motm award (opponent: zim)🏅
♦️ T20:
- Highest consecutive appearance by any Bangladesh player in T20 (61 matches)
- Highest scorer for Bangladesh as no. 8 batter in T20I: 52 vs Zim (10th highest in world)
- 3 Motm awards (opponent: zim, aus, uae)🏅
That was not some huge record surely but definitely it is something to cheer this player up. Let's hope that management works with a definite and a proper plan for Afif.
His current performance doesn't suggest he will make a place for himself in upcoming world cup but still he has a long way to go. Hope he succeeds and make a good comeback in the national side.
Happy Birthday, Afif Hossain Dhrubo.
