Taskin Ahmed's Record-Breaking Bowling Earns ESPNcricinfo Annual Awards Recognition Bangladesh pacer Taskin Ahmed has been honored with a spot in ESPNcricinfo’s annual awards for individual performances in 2025. The accolade was awarded for his outstanding bowling display during the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL), where he delivered a seven-wicket haul for just 19 runs against Dhaka Capital. This performance, which dismantled Dhaka Capital’s batting lineup, is being hailed as one of the best in BPL history and earned him the men’s T20 leagues best bowling performance award.

The achievement highlights his ability to deliver under pressure and his growing reputation as a key player in franchise cricket. His performance not only secured him a place in the awards but also underscored the competitive nature of the BPL and the high standards required to excel in T20 leagues. The ESPNcricinfo awards recognized excellence across multiple categories, with cricketers from various nations receiving honors for their contributions to international and franchise cricket. South Africa’s Aiden Markram claimed the men’s Test batting award for his 136-run innings against Australia in the World Test Championship final, while Australia’s Mitchell Starc took the Test bowling award for a 7-wicket haul against England in the Ashes.
