Abul Hasan

Abul Hasan shot to fame when he became the first No.10 to score a century on Test debut in 110 years. He achieved the feat against West Indies in Khulna in November 2012, even before he took the new ball - his primary role in the Bangladesh team. Born in Kulaura, a small town in Sylhet, Abul came through the age-group system where he first played as a batsman in the Under-15 team. After a good spell of bowling, the former Bangladesh captain Minhazul Abedin convinced him to take up fast bowling seriously. A few years later, he took 34 wickets in 11 Dhaka Premier League one-day matches and regularly played in the Academy and Bangladesh A teams. He had to bide his team but earned his first call-up when he was included in the Bangladesh squad for the tour to Ireland in mid-2012 before being picked in the World Twenty20 squad. He became the 65th Test cricketer to play for Bangladesh.
