Khaled Mashud Pilot
Career  Sketch by Miran Rahman

After being appointed as the captain, Pilot has taken his game to the next level. His leadership has yet to prove phenomenal but he has certainly led his team from the front. If he can only inspire the majority of his team to follow suit, Bangladesh will find a way to get out of the rut they are in.

Khaled keeps particularly well to the spinners, as befits a practitioner from the Subcontinent and his batting has become an increasingly important ingredient in the side; he is capable of both hitting out and defending solidly. Scored a match saving, unbeaten century against England 'A' in 1999 as well as two fifties against the West Indies.  Also batted grittily in
Bangladesh's first Test in 2000, featuring in a 93 run partnership for the seventh wicket in the first innings and hanging on grimly for an unbeaten 21 as the rest of the order folded in the second innings. 

Career highlights: 
  • 105* in first-class match against England 'A' in 1999
  • 59 in first class match against the West Indies in 1999 
  • 53* in ODI against the West Indies in 1999
  • 54* in ODI against Pakistan in 2001
  • 75 in three day match against Australian Academy XI in 2001 
  • Named captain of the Bangladesh team on November 2001
