Who Is Mosaddek Hossain?
Mosaddek Hossain is a Bangladesh international cricketer whose career has combined domestic batting production with useful off-spin. Although he became known internationally as a middle-order and lower-middle-order batter, his early first-class record demonstrated substantial ability to play long innings.
His career has developed across three main stages:
- Domestic breakthrough: Exceptional first-class batting performances, including three double-centuries during the 2015 season.
- International progression: Bangladesh debuts in T20Is and ODIs in 2016, followed by Test cricket in 2017.
- Return to ODI prominence: After a prolonged absence from the ODI side, he produced an unbeaten 86 and two wickets against Australia in June 2026, earning the Player of the Match award. Cricbuzz+2
Mosaddek’s profile is particularly interesting because his strongest early achievement came in the longer domestic format, while some of his most visible international contributions have involved adapting to limited-overs cricket.
Early Life, Birthplace and Cricket Development
Mosaddek Hossain’s birthplace and background
Mosaddek was born on 10 December 1995 in Mymensingh, Bangladesh. His connection to the city’s cricketing environment is reflected in his early development and subsequent progression through Bangladesh’s domestic system.
Public cricket profiles consistently identify Mymensingh as his birthplace. However, detailed, reliably sourced accounts of his childhood, household circumstances and the exact moment he began playing cricket are limited. Those details should not be embellished into an unsupported story about his upbringing. CricketArchive+1
His rise through youth cricket
Mosaddek emerged through Bangladesh’s age-group cricket structure before establishing himself in senior domestic competitions. His recorded teams include Bangladesh Under-19, Bangladesh Under-23 and Bangladesh A.
Youth cricket provided a pathway into senior cricket, but his most clearly documented early breakthrough came in first-class competition rather than through a single widely documented youth tournament.
Mosaddek Hossain’s Domestic Cricket Career
Domestic cricket was the foundation of Mosaddek’s reputation. His early first-class performances established him as a batter capable of producing large scores, while his later career expanded across List A cricket, domestic T20 competitions and Bangladesh’s major club tournaments. CricketArchive+1
First-class debut and early setback
Mosaddek made his first-class debut for Dhaka Division during the 2013–14 season. According to Cricbuzz’s career profile, he recorded a pair in that first appearance against Khulna and was subsequently left out of the side.
His early experience illustrates an important distinction in his career: his first senior opportunity did not immediately lead to a regular place. He needed another opportunity to establish himself, and his next major phase produced a dramatic change in his reputation. Cricbuzz+1

The 2015 domestic season was the defining early chapter of Mosaddek’s career. Playing for Barisal Division, he scored three double-centuries in first-class cricket during the season, becoming the first Bangladeshi player to achieve that feat in a single season.
His performances included the following major innings:
| Opposition | Runs | Balls | Significance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chittagong Division | 282 | Not verified here | One of his three double-centuries |
| Rangpur Division | 250 | Not verified here | Another double-century in the same season |
| Sylhet Division | 200 not out | 245 | Third double-century of the season |
In the innings against Sylhet, played at Sheikh Abu Naser Stadium in Khulna, Mosaddek struck 15 boundaries and seven sixes. Barisal reached 527 for nine declared in its first innings. At the time of the contemporary report, he was 19 years old. Prothomalo+1
The achievement was significant because producing one double-century requires sustained concentration, but repeating it three times in one season demonstrates exceptional consistency in the domestic first-class environment.
His record also established an important contrast between his cricketing abilities: he could construct long innings in first-class matches while later being used as a more flexible batting option in limited-overs cricket.
First-class career and batting record
Mosaddek’s first-class record remained an important part of his reputation after his international debut. CricketArchive lists him with Dhaka Division, Barisal Division and subsequent domestic associations across his career.
His first-class career is particularly relevant to readers researching his highest scores, double-centuries and early domestic statistics. For a complete innings-by-innings breakdown, see the dedicated first-class statistics link provided through the site’s player-stats system.
List A and Dhaka Premier League cricket
Mosaddek has represented Abahani Limited in Bangladesh’s List A domestic cricket, including the Dhaka Premier League, a major setting for his later career.
His domestic performances continued to matter when international opportunities became less frequent. A strong domestic season can provide an established international player with a route back into selection, and Mosaddek’s return to ODI cricket in 2026 followed a productive period in domestic competition.
Mosaddek Hossain’s International Career
Mosaddek made his international debut in T20I cricket in January 2016, followed by ODI cricket in September 2016 and Test cricket in March 2017. These appearances established him as a multi-format Bangladesh international, although his opportunities differed considerably between formats. The Times of India+1
T20I debut and early international opportunities
Mosaddek made his T20I debut against Zimbabwe at Khulna on 20 January 2016. He went on to become part of Bangladesh’s limited-overs setup, providing a right-handed batting option and off-spin.
His international T20 career later included a standout bowling performance against Zimbabwe in July 2022. That performance remains one of his clearest examples of contributing decisively with the ball rather than relying on his batting alone.
ODI debut against Afghanistan
Mosaddek made his ODI debut against Afghanistan at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Mirpur, Dhaka, on 28 September 2016.
His debut performance was notable for an all-round contribution: he scored 45 runs at approximately a run a ball and took two wickets. Bangladesh nevertheless lost the match by two wickets. The Times of India+1
The performance showed why Bangladesh could use him as a batting all-rounder. He was able to contribute in both innings, even though his first ODI did not end in a team victory.
Test debut against Sri Lanka
Mosaddek made his Test debut against Sri Lanka at the P. Sara Oval in Colombo on 15 March 2017.
He scored 75 in his first Test innings, his highest Test score. The innings was an encouraging introduction to international red-ball cricket and connected his international career to the long-format batting ability he had demonstrated in domestic competition. The Times of India+1
| Test career milestone | Detail |
|---|---|
| Debut | 15 March 2017 |
| Opposition | Sri Lanka |
| Venue | P. Sara Oval, Colombo |
| Highest Test score | 75 |
| Test appearances | Four, according to the consulted career database |
Mosaddek’s Test career was shorter than his limited-overs career. His record shows that he was selected for the highest format, but his later international opportunities were concentrated more heavily in white-ball cricket. CricketArchive+1
Mosaddek Hossain’s Major International Performances
Five wickets against Zimbabwe in T20I cricket
On 31 July 2022, Mosaddek took five wickets for 20 runs against Zimbabwe in a T20 International at Harare. The spell is listed among his leading international bowling performances and remains a standout achievement in his T20I career. Cricbuzz.com+1

Bangladesh’s 2019 Cricket World Cup campaign
Mosaddek was part of Bangladesh’s squad at the 2019 ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup in England and Wales. He scored 117 runs across seven matches and took three wickets, according to a published career summary. CREX
The tournament formed part of his experience at a major global event, where Bangladesh competed against the leading one-day international teams. His contribution needs to be understood in the context of a team campaign rather than as an individual record alone.

One of the most important performances of Mosaddek’s recent career came on 9 June 2026, when Bangladesh faced Australia in the first ODI at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Dhaka.
Bangladesh batted first and made 284 for eight in 50 overs. Mosaddek scored an unbeaten 86 from 70 balls, striking seven fours and three sixes. He then took two wickets for 37 runs in 10 overs as Australia were restricted to 191 for nine in 42.2 overs. Bangladesh won by 86 runs under the Duckworth–Lewis–Stern method, and Mosaddek was named Player of the Match. Dawn+2

CricketArchive also records franchise participation outside Bangladesh, including Maratha Arabians. CricketArchive+1

Mosaddek is a right-handed batting all-rounder who bowls right-arm off-break. His profile combines the ability to occupy the crease and score substantial runs with a secondary bowling skill that can provide a captain with an additional option. Cricbuzz+1
Three aspects define his documented career:
- Long-format batting: His three first-class double-centuries in 2015 show an ability to sustain innings over long periods.
- Middle-order flexibility: His international and franchise appearances have included roles in which his batting complements the specialist top-order players.
- Off-spin contributions: His T20I five-wicket haul against Zimbabwe and two wickets against Australia in June 2026 demonstrate that his bowling can have a decisive impact.
His record does not justify assigning him an unsupported technical label or claiming that one particular shot is his signature. The stronger conclusion is that his career value comes from contributing with both bat and ball.
Mosaddek Hossain’s Family, Parents and Personal Life
Mosaddek’s public cricket profiles provide basic biographical information, including his name, birthplace and playing role. The reliable sources consulted for this biography do not establish enough independently corroborated detail to publish a complete account of his parents, siblings, spouse or children.
This distinction matters because numerous biography-style websites can repeat personal details without identifying an original interview or authoritative source.
| Personal-life topic | Publication position |

| Siblings | No sufficiently corroborated details established |
| Spouse or relationship status | No sufficiently corroborated details established |

| Family influence on cricket | No detailed, independently verified account established |
These limits do not mean that Mosaddek has no publicly documented family history. They mean that specific relationships and personal details should not be asserted without stronger evidence.
Mosaddek Hossain’s Education, Height and Other Personal Details
Mosaddek’s cricketing databases document his birthplace, batting style, bowling style and playing role. However, the sources reviewed do not provide a consistent, authoritative account of his schools, college education or academic qualifications.
Height figures also appear in profile-style sources, but a reliable primary source was not established for this biography. A specific height is therefore omitted rather than presented as a confirmed fact.
Similarly, no reliable basis was established for publishing a jersey number, private training routine or named personal coach as a confirmed biographical detail.
Mosaddek Hossain’s Salary, Net Worth and Endorsements
Mosaddek’s career includes international cricket, Bangladesh domestic cricket and franchise participation. These activities can provide professional earnings, but participation alone does not establish a player’s total income or wealth.
No dependable, independently verified net-worth figure or complete public breakdown of his salary, assets, endorsements and investments was established from the sources consulted. Consequently, assigning him a specific net worth would be speculative.
A responsible financial profile would require evidence such as disclosed contracts, official auction or draft prices, attributable sponsorship announcements or credible financial reporting. Without that evidence, a numerical estimate should not be treated as fact.
