DHAKA (Reuters) - Mehidy Hasan forged his reputation as a test specialist early on in his career but the Bangladesh off-spinner has been rewarded for his hard work in the shorter formats by climbing to No.2 in the one-day bowlers rankings.

Mehidy made his test debut in 2016 but it was not until 2018 that he became a regular in the Bangladesh ODI squad.
