Aminul Islam (cricketer, born 1968)
Mohammad Aminul Islam (; born 2 February 1968) is a former Bangladeshi cricketer and captain. Aminul Islam scored the first hundred for the Bangladesh cricket team when Bangladesh played their first Test against India thus becoming only the third cricketer after Charles Bannerman and Dave Houghton to score centuries on their own and their country's test debut. He was one of Bangladesh's most celebrated cricketers in the pre-Test-status era. Early years
Just two years after quitting soccer due to an injury, Aminul Islam (commonly known as Bulbul) saw himself representing International Cricket Council (ICC) Associates Young Cricketers' squad in the first-ever Youth World Cup held in Australia where he took six wickets with his off spin, one of which was that of Brian Lara. The same year he made his ODI debut for the national Cricket team at Chittagong in the Asia Cup (1988). He scored 27 in the match against Sri Lanka. A year later, he scored a century against Malaysia in the U-19 Asian cup. In 1995, he scored a century against the visiting England A side in a three-day match at Dhaka. In ODIs
Despite the fact that his ODI career started in 1988, and went on until 2001–02, he played only 39 ODI matches. This was due to the fact that before becoming a full member of ICC in 2000, Bangladesh very seldom got the chance to play official one day internationals. Over the years Bulbul's role in the side changed. In the initial years he was a lower order batsman cum off spin bowler. In the later years he mainly concentrated on his batting. His highest ODI score of 70 came against India at Mohali in 1998. His best bowling 3/57, came against Zimbabwe at Nairobi in October 1997. Career ODI batting performances:
