Liton Das’s Early Life, Childhood and Family Background
Liton Das was born on 13 October 1994 in Dinajpur, in northern Bangladesh. Cricket became a serious interest during his childhood. In a 2019 interview with The Daily Star, he explained that he had been passionate about cricket from around the age of eight or nine.
His early development involved support from his family and guidance from a local coach in Dinajpur. That local foundation eventually led him towards formal cricket training at BKSP, one of Bangladesh’s principal sports-development institutions.
How Liton Das Started Playing Cricket
Liton’s early cricket development was shaped by two important influences:
- Family support: His family encouraged his interest in pursuing cricket professionally.
- Local coaching: Dinajpur coach Abu Samad Mithu helped him develop as a young cricketer.
His progress was not simply a product of international-level talent identification. Local coaching and the opportunity to enter a structured sports institution played important roles in his development.
Liton Das’s Family
Liton has publicly discussed his family’s support for his cricket ambitions. A 2019 interview also described him as the eldest among his siblings when he was preparing to join BKSP.
His family background is relevant to understanding the decisions surrounding his early cricket education, particularly his move from Dinajpur to a specialist sports-training environment.
Liton Das’s Move to BKSP
A major turning point came in 2008, when Liton joined the Bangladesh Krira Shikkha Protishtan (BKSP). He was approximately 14 years old.
His move required a family decision. According to a 2019 Cricbuzz feature, Liton had to convince his mother to let him leave home and pursue cricket at BKSP. He was the eldest among his siblings, making the decision particularly significant for the family.
At BKSP, he initially occupied a middle-order position. His coach Montu Dutta recognised his batting potential and promoted him higher in the order. That adjustment became an important part of his development as a batter. Cricbuzz.com+1
Important early-life details
- Birthplace: Dinajpur, Bangladesh.
- Joined BKSP: 2008.
- Approximate age at admission: 14.
- Local coach: Abu Samad Mithu.
- BKSP coach associated with his batting development: Montu Dutta.
- Cricket interest began: approximately eight or nine years old.
Liton Das’s Education, BKSP Training and Cricket Coaches
BKSP was the most important identifiable institution in Liton’s formal cricket development. It combines education and specialist sports training, allowing promising young athletes to develop within a structured environment.
His development network included two particularly identifiable coaching influences:
| Coach | Association |
|---|---|
| Abu Samad Mithu | Early cricket coaching in Dinajpur |
| Montu Dutta | BKSP coaching; recognised his batting potential and promoted him up the order |
There is a distinction between his general education and his cricket education. BKSP is well documented as a sports institution in his pathway, but a complete independently verified school and academic qualification history is not established by the available reliable reporting.
Liton Das’s Under-19 Career and Youth Cricket Breakthrough
Liton represented Bangladesh at the 2012 and 2014 Under-19 Cricket World Cups. These tournaments helped him gain experience against international youth opposition before his senior domestic and international career.
The 2014 Under-19 World Cup was particularly important. His performances in the competition strengthened his reputation as a young wicketkeeper-batter and preceded his exceptional domestic season in 2014–15. ICC’s player biography also identifies both youth World Cup appearances as important stages of his development. ICC+1
Youth-career milestones
- Bangladesh Under-19 representation.
- 2012 Under-19 World Cup.
- 2014 Under-19 World Cup.
- Progression into senior domestic cricket.
- Subsequent selection for Bangladesh’s national team in 2015.
Liton Das’s Domestic Cricket Career: Rangpur, First-Class Cricket and National Selection
Liton made his first-class debut for Rangpur Division in October 2011, against Dhaka Division. His domestic development was gradual, with his most significant early statistical breakthrough arriving during the 2014–15 season.
He demonstrated the ability to score substantial runs in both longer and shorter domestic formats. His performances in the National Cricket League and Dhaka Premier Division helped establish him as a serious contender for national selection.
First-Class Debut and Early Development
His first-class career began in the 2011–12 domestic season.
During his early seasons, he developed his batting technique and wicketkeeping responsibilities through regular domestic cricket. His improvement became increasingly visible in subsequent campaigns.
The Exceptional 2014–15 Domestic Season
The 2014–15 season was arguably the most important phase before his international debut.
For Rangpur Division in the National Cricket League, Liton scored 1,024 runs in seven matches at an average of 85.33. He recorded five centuries, including a highest score of 175.
He also scored 686 runs in the 2014–15 Dhaka Premier Division competition, averaging 42.87 and registering a century.
| Competition, 2014–15 | Matches | Runs | Average | Highest score | Hundreds |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| National Cricket League | 7 | 1,024 | 85.33 | 175 | 5 |
| Dhaka Premier Division | 16 | 686 | 42.87 | 108 | 1 |
These performances were a major reason for his elevation to the national side. He had demonstrated that he could produce consistent scores over a full domestic season rather than relying on occasional good innings. West Indies players+1
Domestic Teams and Cricket Development
Liton’s domestic and franchise associations have included:
- Rangpur Division
- North Zone
- Dhaka Gladiators
- Comilla Victorians
- Sylhet Sixers
- Rajshahi Royals
- Gazi Group Chattogram
- Dhaka Capitals
- Rangpur Riders
He also represented Bangladesh A and other Bangladesh Cricket Board-associated teams.
His career demonstrates the importance of Bangladesh’s domestic structure in developing international wicketkeeper-batters.
Liton Das’s International Cricket Career and Bangladesh Debuts
Liton’s international career began in 2015. He received opportunities in all three international formats during the same year, making his debut against three different opponents.
| Format | Debut date | Opposition |
|---|---|---|
| Test | 10 June 2015 | India |
| ODI | 18 June 2015 | India |
| T20I | 5 July 2015 | South Africa |
His first international selection came after his excellent domestic form. He was initially called into the national setup for the T20 series against Pakistan but did not play in that series. His first senior international appearances subsequently came against India and South Africa. ICC+1
Liton Das’s Test Career
Liton made his Test debut against India at Fatullah in June 2015.
His Test career has been characterised by a mixture of attacking stroke play and the responsibility of batting in challenging situations. His highest Test score is 141, while his wicketkeeping has also become an important part of his value to Bangladesh.
His 138 against Pakistan in Rawalpindi in September 2024 stands among his most important Test performances.
Liton Das’s ODI Career
Liton made his ODI debut against India on 18 June 2015.
He developed into an important top-order and middle-order batting option. His ODI career includes several notable performances, particularly his 121 in the 2018 Asia Cup final and his 176 against Zimbabwe in 2020.
His highest ODI score of 176 remains one of the most recognisable individual innings in Bangladesh’s cricket history.
See Liton Das's complete ODI statsLiton Das’s T20I Career
Liton made his T20I debut against South Africa on 5 July 2015.
He became increasingly important to Bangladesh’s attacking batting plans. His ability to score quickly in the powerplay and accelerate against pace and spin has made him a useful option in the shortest international format.
In March 2023, he scored a half-century from only 18 deliveries against Ireland, setting a Bangladesh record for the fastest T20I fifty at that time.

His first-class record is particularly important because it demonstrates the strength of his longer-format batting outside international cricket.
His 2014–15 National Cricket League season was a defining statistical achievement, and he continued to represent domestic sides in first-class competitions.

Liton Das’s Major International Performances and Career-Defining Innings
Several innings have defined Liton’s international reputation. His most important performances demonstrate three different qualities: his ability to build a long ODI innings, his attacking approach in T20 cricket and his capacity to rescue Bangladesh in difficult Test situations.
1. Liton Das’s 121 Against India in the 2018 Asia Cup Final
Player of the Match
One of Liton’s earliest major international achievements came in the 2018 Asia Cup final against India in Dubai.
On 28 September 2018, he scored 121 from 117 balls, including 12 fours and two sixes. It was his maiden ODI century and earned him the Player of the Match award.

Bangladesh eventually lost the final by three wickets, but Liton’s innings established him as a batter capable of performing on a major tournament stage. Match Centre+1
2. Liton Das’s 94 Not Out Against West Indies in the 2019 World Cup
The 2019 ICC Cricket World Cup provided another major opportunity for Liton.
On 17 June 2019, Bangladesh chased 322 against West Indies at Taunton. Liton scored an unbeaten 94 from 69 deliveries in his first World Cup appearance.
He shared a 189-run fourth-wicket partnership with Shakib Al Hasan, who also produced a century.
Performance snapshot
- Tournament: 2019 ICC Cricket World Cup.
- Opposition: West Indies.
- Venue: County Ground, Taunton.
- Liton’s score: 94 not out.
- Balls faced: 69.
- Partnership: 189 with Shakib Al Hasan.
- Result: Bangladesh won by seven wickets.
Shakib’s experience helped Liton settle during his first World Cup match. The partnership became one of the defining moments of Bangladesh’s successful chase. ICC
3. Liton Das’s Record-Breaking 176 Against Zimbabwe in 2020
ODI career high
Liton’s 176 against Zimbabwe on 6 March 2020 remains one of his most important performances.
The third ODI was played at Sylhet International Cricket Stadium. Liton opened the innings alongside Tamim Iqbal and produced an outstanding partnership.
Match snapshot
| Detail | Information |
|---|---|
| Date | 6 March 2020 |

The 292-run opening stand was a Bangladesh record for any wicket in ODI cricket at that time. Liton’s 176 also established a new individual ODI high score for Bangladesh, surpassing Tamim Iqbal’s previous mark of 158.
The innings combined controlled accumulation with aggressive boundary scoring. It demonstrated that Liton could play a long ODI innings without losing his attacking instincts. cricketarchive.com+2
4. Liton Das’s 60 Against India in the 2022 T20 World Cup
At the Adelaide Oval on 2 November 2022, Liton gave Bangladesh an explosive start against India.
He scored 60 from just 27 balls, striking seven fours and three sixes. His aggressive powerplay batting put Bangladesh in a strong position during the chase.
Rain interrupted the match, and Bangladesh eventually lost by five runs under the revised target.
Despite the defeat, the innings became one of his most memorable T20 World Cup performances. ICC+1
5. Liton Das’s 18-Ball Fifty Against Ireland in 2023
On 29 March 2023, Liton scored a half-century from just 18 deliveries in the second T20I against Ireland at Chattogram.
He went on to make 83 from 41 balls, his career-best T20I score at the time.
Key achievements
- Fastest T20I fifty by a Bangladesh batter at that time.
- Broke Mohammad Ashraful’s previous 20-ball national record.
- Scored 83 from 41 deliveries.
- Shared a 124-run opening partnership with Rony Talukdar.
This innings highlighted his ability to dominate bowling attacks during the powerplay. ICC+2
6. Liton Das’s 141 Against Sri Lanka in 2022
His highest Test score of 141 came against Sri Lanka in 2022.
The innings became an important part of his Test career and remained his personal best when he scored another major century against Pakistan in 2024.
7. Liton Das’s 138 Against Pakistan in Rawalpindi in 2024
Player of the Match
One of the finest examples of Liton’s Test-match temperament came in the second Test against Pakistan in Rawalpindi.
Bangladesh were in serious trouble at 26/5 when Liton arrived at the crease. He had to rebuild the innings under pressure and subsequently combined with Mehidy Hasan Miraz to restore Bangladesh’s position.
Liton scored 138, while Mehidy contributed 78. The partnership helped Bangladesh recover from their disastrous start.
Match snapshot

| Result | Bangladesh won by 6 wickets |
| Award | Player of the Match |
Liton also battled leg cramps during the innings. His contribution helped Bangladesh achieve a historic first Test series victory over Pakistan. ICC+1
Liton Das’s Bangladesh Premier League Career
The Bangladesh Premier League has been an important part of Liton’s franchise career. He has represented several teams and played significant roles in Comilla Victorians’ championship campaigns.
His BPL career also contains one of the most remarkable responses to an international selection setback.
Comilla Victorians and BPL Championship Success
Liton played important roles in Comilla Victorians’ BPL title-winning campaigns in 2022 and 2023.
He was also involved in the team’s 2024 campaign, when Comilla reached the final.
His contributions included a 55-run innings in the 2023 final. He subsequently became the team’s captain.
These seasons demonstrated his value as both a batter and a leader in franchise cricket. ICC+1
Liton Das’s 125 for Dhaka Capitals in 2025
BPL record performance
On 12 January 2025, Liton produced one of the greatest innings of his T20 career.
Playing for Dhaka Capitals against Durbar Rajshahi, he scored an unbeaten 125 from 55 balls.
His opening partner Tanzid Hasan Tamim scored 108 from 64 balls. Together, they produced a 241-run opening partnership, setting a new BPL record for any wicket.

| Dhaka Capitals total | 254/1 |
| Result | Won by 149 runs |
Liton reached his century in 44 balls, making it the fastest century by a Bangladeshi batter in BPL history at that time.
The timing made the innings even more notable. He had been omitted from Bangladesh’s provisional Champions Trophy squad earlier that day. Rather than allowing the selection disappointment to define his performance, he responded with a record-breaking domestic innings.
The match also established 254/1 as the highest BPL team total at that time. The Daily Star+3
Liton Das’s IPL Career: Kolkata Knight Riders in 2023
Liton made his IPL debut with Kolkata Knight Riders in the 2023 season.
KKR purchased him for his base auction price of ₹50 lakh at the IPL 2023 auction. The signing gave him an opportunity to play in one of the world’s most competitive franchise leagues.

Liton Das’s IPL Debut and Performance
Liton played one IPL match for Kolkata Knight Riders in 2023, against Delhi Capitals.
He scored four runs from four balls. He did not establish a regular place in the playing XI during that season.
His IPL experience therefore remained brief, despite the opportunity to join KKR.
It is important to distinguish his IPL signing from a long-term franchise career: his verified IPL participation was one appearance, not multiple seasons of regular playing time. NDTV Sports+1
Liton Das’s Other Franchise Cricket: CPL and Overseas Teams
Apart from the IPL, Liton has participated in overseas franchise competitions.
His recognised team associations include:
- Jamaica Tallawahs in the Caribbean Premier League.
- Kolkata Knight Riders in the Indian Premier League.
- Other overseas T20 team associations recorded in cricket databases.
His CPL appearances for Jamaica Tallawahs were limited, but they gave him experience outside Bangladesh’s domestic competitions. Cricbuzz+1
Liton Das’s Captaincy and Leadership for Bangladesh
Liton’s leadership responsibilities have grown alongside his international career.
He was appointed Bangladesh’s Test vice-captain in 2022 and subsequently took on captaincy duties in limited-overs cricket.
Bangladesh T20I Captaincy
Liton led Bangladesh to a historic 3–0 T20I series victory over England in March 2023, a landmark achievement for the national team.
He also captained Bangladesh to a 3–0 T20I series whitewash against West Indies in 2024.
In April 2026, the BCB retained him as T20I captain through the 2028 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup. ICC+1
Appointment as Bangladesh ODI Captain in 2026
On 29 July 2026, the Bangladesh Cricket Board appointed Liton as the national ODI captain, replacing Mehidy Hasan Miraz.
The appointment gave him leadership responsibility in both white-ball formats.
The board’s decision formed part of a revised leadership structure, with one captain overseeing ODIs and T20Is while Najmul Hossain Shanto continued as Test captain.
The decision was announced by BCB president Tamim Iqbal. The Business Standard+2

Liton Das’s Wicketkeeping Achievements
Liton’s wicketkeeping is an important part of his international value.
He has performed behind the stumps across Test, ODI and T20I cricket, with catches and stumpings contributing to his overall record.
ICC also highlights his 12 dismissals during the 2024 Pakistan Test series, the most by a Bangladeshi wicketkeeper in a single Test series at that time. ICC+1
Liton Das’s Playing Style and Strengths
Liton is a right-handed wicketkeeper-batter whose game combines technically sound stroke play with attacking intent.
His batting can be effective in both longer and shorter formats, although his most recognisable performances have often come when he has been allowed to play positively.
Important characteristics of his game
- Attacking batting: His 176 against Zimbabwe and 83 against Ireland illustrate his boundary-scoring ability.
- Powerplay scoring: He can put pressure on opening bowlers through aggressive stroke play.
- Long-format recovery: His 138 against Pakistan demonstrated his ability to rebuild an innings under pressure.
- Wicketkeeping: He provides Bangladesh with an additional specialist fielding role behind the stumps.
- Adaptability: His major innings have come in Tests, ODIs, T20Is and domestic T20 competitions.
His career is not defined exclusively by attacking cricket. The Rawalpindi innings in 2024 showed that he could also play a patient, match-saving role when Bangladesh needed a substantial partnership.
Liton Das’s Wife and Personal Life
Liton Das married Devashri Biswas Sanchita on 28 July 2019 in Mirpur, Dhaka.
The wedding was also reported by Bangladeshi publication Bangla Tribune, which covered the couple’s reception in Dinajpur on 31 July 2019. Independent+1
Liton Das’s Wife: Devashri Biswas Sanchita
Liton’s wife has occasionally appeared in public reporting.
In March 2020, The Independent Bangladesh reported that she had sustained burn injuries in a domestic gas-cylinder explosion at their Dhaka residence. The report stated that she received medical treatment and was recovering.
This was a personal incident rather than a cricket-related injury, and it should not be confused with Liton’s own subsequent sports injuries. Independent
Publicly available reliable reporting does not establish a sufficiently complete account of their wider family life, so additional details about children or private family matters should not be assumed.
Liton Das’s Injuries and Fitness Challenges
Injuries have affected Liton’s availability at different stages of his career.
Two separate incidents were reported in the second half of 2026.
Left Hip Joint Injury in October 2026
After Bangladesh’s Test against Afghanistan in Abu Dhabi, Liton sustained a right hip joint injury, according to the Bangladesh Sangbad Sangstha report.
An MRI assessment identified the problem, and Bangladesh withdrew him from the subsequent tri-nation ODI series involving Zimbabwe and Afghanistan.
He later underwent rehabilitation and a fitness assessment before returning to the Test squad. Sports+1
Right Elbow Injury Against West Indies in October 2026
On 29 October 2026, Liton sustained a right elbow contusion while batting in the first innings of the Mirpur Test against West Indies.
The injury forced him to miss wicketkeeping duties during the West Indies innings. Substitute wicketkeeper Jaker Ali Anik took over behind the stumps.
Liton remained unbeaten on 34 in Bangladesh’s first innings of 272.
The Bangladesh team physiotherapist confirmed that Liton was under observation. At the time of the report, there was no confirmed long-term absence announced. Sports+1
Liton Das’s Net Worth, Salary and Earnings
There is no sufficiently dependable, independently verified public figure establishing Liton Das’s total net worth.
His known cricket-related earnings include his IPL 2023 auction price of ₹50 lakh from Kolkata Knight Riders.
However, this figure represents his recorded IPL contract price, not his overall wealth.
His total earnings could involve several categories:
- Bangladesh international cricket payments.
- Domestic cricket contracts.
- Franchise cricket payments.
- Match fees and tournament earnings.
- Commercial or sponsorship arrangements, where publicly disclosed.
Without verified financial disclosures, it would be misleading to calculate his net worth from these incomplete figures.
Liton Das’s IPL Salary
His confirmed IPL 2023 auction price was ₹50 lakh.
No reliable comprehensive public record establishes his total lifetime cricket earnings or personal assets.
