Bangladesh are heading into the T20 World Cup with a string of lacklustre performances. The Asia Cup 2022 witnessed them crashing out of the group stage, while they could not secure wins in any of their matches in the recent T20I tri-series in New Zealand either. Their batting unit has failed to rack up enough runs, while bowlers have proven to be quite costly.

But having been in similar situations in the past, the Bangla Tigers would hope to make a rapid turnaround with their experienced bowling unit and instill confidence in the squad. The spin unit will be led by skipper Shakib Al Hasan, while Mustafizur Rahman will head the pace bowling department. Here are the bowlers, who can be key for Bangladesh in the showpiece event:

5. Mosaddek Hossain

Since making his debut, Mosaddek has primarily been used as a batting all-rounder. He has the ability to provide the much-needed flourish to the team, with his ball-striking ability - a glimpse of which everyone saw when he scored 48 runs off 31 balls against Afghanistan in Asia Cup 2022.

However, the other side to his career has been his useful bowling and getting wickets in crunch moments. In his maiden ODI against Afghanistan in 2016, the talented off-spinner picked two wickets and returned with figures of 2/30 in ten overs. As far as T20Is are concerned, Mosaddek has scalped 16 wickets in 23 innings, at an efficient economy of 6.93.

In fact, he has been a fine performer with the ball across all formats but has not been given enough opportunities. With a variety of off-spin deliveries up his sleeve, arm ball, and tight line length, the 26-year-old will be key to Bangladesh’s plans in the T20 World Cup.
