Mosaddek Hossain Aims for National Team Return

Mosaddek Hossain, the skipper of Abahani Limited, has become a significant figure in Bangladesh cricket after leading his team to victory in the Dhaka Premier League (DPL) 2024-25. His impressive performance in the DPL has not only brought success to his team but also revived his ambitions of returning to the national cricket team.

Abahani Limited clinched their record 24th league title, owing largely to Mosaddek’s exceptional all-round contribution. In the tournament, he emerged as the joint-highest wicket-taker with 30 wickets. Additionally, Mosaddek scored 487 runs, further underscoring his prowess on the field.

Following the league triumph, Mosaddek has set his sights on the upcoming Bangladesh ‘A’ team’s series against New Zealand. The series, which features three one-day matches and two four-day encounters, is scheduled to commence on May 5 in Sylhet. Mosaddek views this as a crucial opportunity to showcase his skills with an eye on earning a place back in the national squad.

Abahani’s successful campaign in the DPL was not without challenges. The team faced budget constraints and the dynamic political environment in the country posed additional hurdles. Despite these obstacles, under Mosaddek’s leadership, the team remained focused and delivered collective efforts that led them to the championship win.

Mosaddek has expressed deep appreciation for his team members, acknowledging their hard work and dedication as key factors in achieving the league title. His recent accomplishments have not only boosted his profile as a player but also reinforced his leadership qualities.

With the upcoming matches against New Zealand ‘A’, Mosaddek is determined to leverage his current form. If successful, his performance could be pivotal in paving his return to the national cricket team, reaffirming his status as a vital asset to Bangladesh cricket.
