History of woman's Cricket

The history of women's cricket can be traced back to a report in The Reading Mercury on 26 July 1745 and a match that took place between the villages of Bramley and Hambledon near Guildford in Surrey.

The Mercury reported:

"The greatest cricket match that was played in this part of England was on Friday, the 26th of last month, on Gosden Common, near Guildford, between eleven maids of Bramley and eleven maids of Hambledon, all dressed in white. The Bramley maids had blue ribbons and the Hambledon maids red ribbons on their heads. The Bramley girls got 119 notches and the Hambledon girls 127. There was of bothe sexes the greatest number that ever was seen on such an occasion. The girls bowled, batted, ran and catches as well as most men could do in that game." 

The International Women's Cricket Council was formed in February 1958 by the women's cricket associations of Australia, England, the Netherlands, New Zealand and South Africa to organise international matches between the countries.^[1]

In 2005 it was merged with the International Cricket Council (ICC) to form one unified body to help manage and develop cricket.

The IWCC had a maximum of 13 members at one time, and 17 members in total in the course of its history.^[3] Founding members are marked with a dagger

The First Test in Bangladesh

The First Test in Bangladesh

After the partition of Bengal in 1947, matches of domestic cricket in Pakistan were conducted in four leagues. Regional East Bengali of Pakistan teams regularly took part in the first-class Quaid-e-Azam trophy from 1954 through 1968.

1955–1969: Seven international Test matches with Pakistan participating as the host team were played in Dhaka between 1955 and 1969.

The first test was held between Pakistan and the Republic of India in January 1955. The match started on the first day of the year. The newly built Dacca Stadium (now “Dhaka”-Bangabandhu National Stadium) then had the maximum capacity of accommodating 15,000 spectators.

That is the begining to became the Tiger on a row. Bat at this posision  they can not realize that who we devolop this game on our country. On that note at that time people of our country known that cricket is just playing for the rich people but thats not. They break that and try better and better. Then they could make that.

Profile

Khaled Mashud was Bangladesh's second Test captain and the best wicketkeeper in its first decade as an Elite cricket-playing nation. But Bangladesh's sporting fraternity will remember him as a pioneer, who showed the way with his hard-working approach. Putting in the long hours in training took Mashud, also known as 'Pilot', to great heights, including being the first name in the Bangladesh team sheet for more than a decade. He was a dependable No.7 batsman too, and was the last-man standing in many a lost battle, nudging and nurdling singles in his bid to keep the tail wagging.

But it was a slogged six over long-on in the 1997 ICC Trophy final against Kenya that brought him into the national consciousness. He had made his international debut two years before, when he was the most disciplined cricketer in the country, having come from Rajshahi, the northern headquarter. Son of former national footballer Shamsul Islam Mollah, Mashud was a regular in age-level before he was fast-tracked after tidy performances behind the wicket for the Dhaka giants Mohammedan Sporting Club and Abahani.

His ICC Trophy exploits cemented him a place in the national team, but he wasn't making the runs despite providing the steadiness as a wicketkeeper. He was probably waiting for Bangladesh to begin playing Test cricket to fulfill his batting credentials, as the longer game suited him. He struck fifties against New Zealand, England and Zimbabwe, but the innings that typified his contribution was the three-hour-long 33 he made in East London in 2002 in Bangladesh's first Test on South African soil. He negotiated the likes of Makhaya Ntini and Nantie Hayward with guts, even as most of the others struggled. His only Test hundred, against West Indies in the drawn game at Gros Islet, was also to ensure Bangladesh safety in what was also his longest stay at the crease - five-and-a-half hours.

The only criticism of Mashud was his stint as captain. The 12 straight Test defeats wasn't his fault, but one of his low points was leading Bangladesh in the 2003 World Cup debacle, particularly the defeat against Canada the day before Eid ul Fitr. He is alleged to have spent the night away from the hotel, and the BCB put up an inquiry committee after the team returned, with Mashud being dropped for two Tests against South Africa right after the World Cup.

Once Khaled Mahmud took over as captain, Mashud concentrated on his game and developing the Rajshahi divisional cricket team in the domestic first-class competition. He was successful in reviving his native division's cricketing fortunes, helping create a core group of cricketers, some of whom would go on to play for Bangladesh.

He made his best ODI score against Australia, some calling it his best innings ever, but the emergence of Mushfiqur Rahim, a more talented batsman (albeit an inferior wicketkeeper) pushed him out of the 2007 World Cup squad, a selection decision criticised by the media and fans. But once Mushfiqur had made that crucial half-century in the win against India, the writing was on the wall and Mashud retired from international cricket after a year.
