One of the stars of Bangladesh cricket, Manjural Islam, also known as Monju, is a left-arm pace bowler who bowls a good line and length.
Usually opening the attack, he had a steady 1999 World Cup until, like Khaled Mahmud, the Australians took him apart.
But although he has taken just 19 wickets in 26 one-day internationals he offers good variety in the attack and will benefit from the experience in the last World Cup.
