Tanzid Hasan Profile

প্রোফাইল"

Tanzid Hasan is a left-handed batter representing Bangladesh. Hailing from Bogra, Tanzid’s domestic career began in February 2019 when he made his T20 debut for Uttara Sporting Club in the 2018–19 Dhaka Premier Division. In the following month, he would go on to make his List A debut for the same club. Bangladesh selectors were impressed by the promise shown by the young southpaw in the two white-ball formats on the domestic scene and therefore included him in the squad for the 2020 Under-19 World Cup. With 166 runs across 6 innings, Tanzid ended as the second-highest run-getter for Bangladesh and was one of the architects of helping his side clinch the title. He backed up his World Cup performances with a crucial 82-run knock for East Zone in the first innings of the Bangladesh Cricket League final, albeit in a losing cause. In what was his debut inning of his first-class career, Tanzid showed immense composure against an experienced South Zone bowling attack. 2023 proved to be a breakthrough year for the left-hander, as after years of waiting, he received his maiden call-up to the Bangladesh senior team. At the 2023 Asia Cup, co-hosted by Sri Lanka and Pakistan, he made his ODI debut in Bangladesh’s campaign opener against Sri Lanka. In his first outing with the bat, he was dismissed on a duck and finished the competition with just 13 runs under his name from 2 innings. Despite his ordinary showing in the Asia Cup, he was selected for Bangladesh’s next series, which was at home against New Zealand. He could not have the impact that was expected from him, but the selection drama surrounding Tamim Iqbal meant that Tanzid found himself on the flight to India for the 2023 ODI World Cup. In his first-ever World Cup for the senior team, Tanzid will be keen to announce his arrival on the big stage.

Tanzid Hasan has the skillset an international batter needs at the top of the order. He has sound technique and can anchor the innings for his team. Although he has yet to feature in the red ball format for Bangladesh, one feels that it will not take him long to receive his maiden Test cap.
