Taskin Ahmed set a national record for runs conceded in a List A match with 107 runs during a cricket league match where Gazi Group Cricketers defeated Mohammedan Sporting Club by 65 runs. Anamul Bijoy scored a notable 149 not out while Taskin’s figures exceeded the previous high of 104 runs by Shahadat Hossain, marking a significant moment in Bangladeshi cricket history.
In a recent Dhaka Premier Division Cricket League match, Taskin Ahmed established a new national record by conceding 107 runs in a List A cricket match. The Gazi Group Cricketers triumphed over Mohammedan Sporting Club by 65 runs at Savar, with captain Anamul Bijoy leading the charge, scoring an impressive 149 not out from 143 balls, propelling his team to a total of 336-5 after Mohammedan opted to field first.
Anamul Bijoy’s remarkable innings was complemented by Sadikur Rahman’s contribution of 60 runs and Tofael Ahmed’s explosive 63 runs off just 29 balls. However, Taskin Ahmed’s bowling figures of 3-107 in 10 overs marked a disappointing milestone as he became the Bangladeshi bowler with the most runs conceded in a List A cricket innings, surpassing Shahadat Hossain’s previous record of 104 runs.
This year has witnessed Taskin’s remarkable performances, including a record of 7-19 earlier in January for Durbar Rajshahi against Dhaka Capital in T20 cricket. Additionally, he is notable for being the sole cricketer with a Grade A+ contract on the Bangladesh Cricket Board’s 2025 list.
The highlights of Taskin’s record-setting match include:
1. Bowler: Taskin Ahmed
2. Figures: 10-0-107-3
3. Opponent: Mohammedan Sporting Club
4. Venue: Savar
5. Season: 2024-25
Notable historical rankings indicate that the 107 runs concede by Taskin are also tied for the 11th-most in the history of List A cricket. Taskin joins the ranks of bowlers such as Mick Lewis and Adam Zampa, who have also had notably costly performances in the format. Despite Rony Talukdar’s 74 for Mohammedan, his team’s total collapsed to 271, with Gazi Group’s Abdul Gaffar Saqlain taking 4 wickets for 59 runs.
The Dhaka Premier Division Cricket League recently highlighted Taskin Ahmed’s disappointing achievement of conceding 107 runs in a List A match, thus setting a new national record. Despite Gazi Group Cricketers’ victory and Anamul Bijoy’s stellar performance, Taskin’s figures overshadowed the match as the most runs conceded by a Bangladeshi in this category. Taskin’s ability to bounce back from this setback will be crucial for his future performances.
