With this performance, Mahmud became the first Bangladesh fast bowler to take five five-wicket hauls in Test cricket, surpassing Shahadat Hossain, who achieved the feat four times.
The six-wicket haul was Hasan Mahmud’s fifth five-wicket performance in Test cricket and his first on home soil. The fast bowler made his Test debut for Bangladesh in 2024 and has now taken 59 wickets in 19 Tests at an average of 27.69. Out of his 59 wickets, 20 have come in eight home Tests.
He surpassed the former Bangladesh pacer Shahadat Hossain, who had four five-wicket hauls, while Robiul Islam achieved the feat twice. Among the current Bangladesh fast bowlers, Nahid Rana has also taken two five-wicket hauls, but he is far behind Mahmud.
Litton Das helps Mahmud create another record
Joshua Bishop faced Mahmud's hat-trick delivery and was given out LBW by umpire Asif Yaqoob. However, Bishop successfully overturned the decision after taking a DRS review.
The wicketkeeper came close to the stumps, and the plan worked perfectly. With this dismissal, Mahmud became the first Bangladesh fast bowler to take a Test wicket through a stumping.
Hasan said about Bishop’s dismissal after the game, as quoted by Cricbuzz: “At that time, the batsman (Jangoo) was actually playing by stepping out. Later, Shanto Bhai (captain) told me that if he (Litton) kept up to the stumps, maybe the batter wouldn't move his feet so much and his shot-making would also decrease a little.
Virat Kohli's wicket remains special for Mahmud
Mahmud also explained that taking five wickets at home was a special moment for him. He wants to keep improving and work harder to achieve more success in international cricket.
The fast bowler added, “Getting five wickets at home is always very special for me. I keep things very simple. But I will definitely try harder to get ahead.”
