Mustafizur in ICC's young talent list

Sports Desk: International Cricket Council has made a list of young talent ahead of Champions Trophy 2017. Bangladesh's bowling sensation Mustafizur Rahman was included to the list. 

There is something special about this left-arm quick. He belongs to the generation to look forward to, and has already made a name for himself, Bangladesh have found a real gem in Mustafizur Rahman, quick, accurate and crafty with his off-cutters.

The highlight of Rahman's ODI career remain two five-wicket hauls in Bangladesh's first ever series win over India in 2015. He is only the second player to have returned five-fors in his first two ODIs, after Zimbabwe's Brian Vitori.

The 21-year-old has a lot of cricket left in him. Provided he stays fit and injury-free, he has a lot of time to grow and showcase his skills. On the balance of form combined with current potential, Rahman is seemingly one who can be tipped for bigger things.
