A left-handed batsman and slow left arm orthodox bowler, he made his debut for Dhaka Division in the 2001–02 season.[1] He currently plays first-class cricket for Dhaka Metropolis, and Twenty20 cricket for the Rangpur Rangers.[2]
In 2016, he was selected in Bangladesh's squad for the 2016 ICC World Twenty20. However, he was later suspended from bowling in international cricket due to an illegal action bowled during the tournament.[3]
