Tamim Iqbal has become the highest Test
run-scorer of Bangladesh surpassing Habibul Bashar’s 3026 runs. It takes him 40
Tests to reach the milestone. Scoring seven runs in his 40th Test
match against India, he has broken the record more than eight years after
Bashar ended his Test career in 2008. It seems the player is not happy with
this achievement. He said it would be better if he could reach the milestone
earlier.
Habibul Bashar who held the highest
scorer’s position for more than 14 years was in Fatullah to see his record
being broken. He said he was happy to see Tamim break his record. He also wants
the player to score 10,000 Test runs.
Tamim Iqbal has so far played 40 Tests
and scored 3055 runs at an average of 39.67 with 7 centuries and 17
half-centuries. Habibul Bashar played 10 more Tests than Tamim and scored 3026
runs at an average of 30.87 with three hundreds and 24 fifties.
