Bangladeshi Cricket Captains
Bangladesh became a full member of the International Cricket Council on 26 June 2000, and played its first Test match, against India that November. Before then, it had been an associate member of the ICC since 1977, competing in six ICC Trophies, the leading one-day competition for non-Test nations. Bangladesh did not had a good start to their Test record, winning only once in their first 50 Tests, and that was against a weakened Zimbabwe. In 2009, however, they achieved their first Test series victory over a weakened West Indies team, with a 2:0 victory in the Caribbean.

Famous quotes containing the word cricket:
“The thing that struck me forcefully was the feeling of great age about the place. Standing on that old parade ground, which is now a cricket field, I could feel the dead generations crowding me. Here was the oldest settlement of freedmen in the Western world, no doubt. Men who had thrown off the bands of slavery by their own courage and ingenuity. The courage and daring of the Maroons strike like a purple beam across the history of Jamaica.”
—Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
