Sabbir Rahman is a Bangladeshi cricketer. He is from Rajshahi and besides national team he also plays for Rajshahi Division. Sabbir is a right-handed batsman and legbreak bowler. Sabbir Rahman was also captain of the Bangladesh Under 19's team

Sabbir Rahman is at a delicate point in his career. He has been embroiled in off-field trouble, and has to pay an unprecedentedly high fine for what the BCB has described as a "serious disciplinary breach". The amount of money involved would make anyone's head spin, let alone that of one as young as Sabbir.

The next few months could define which way he heads in international cricket. He needs to repair his reputation after this transgression, and the best way would be to quickly revert to doing what he knows best: batting with a free mind.

The predominantly aggressive mindset with which Sabbir approaches every kind of cricket, and which has its roots in his origins as a T20 specialist, has become representative of a shift in the mentality of Bangladesh batsmen at large.

When Indian satellite-television channels started to become available in Bangladesh in the early 1990s, the current lot of cricketers in the country picked up most of what they know by watching matches telecast from around the world. But though the likes of Sanath Jayasuriya, Virender Sehwag, and now David Warner, have been watched keenly, very few Bangladesh batsmen have been able to bat aggressively like those players in a sustained fashion.

Mohammad Ashraful and Aftab Ahmed were the first to bat at higher speeds against quality bowling but both lacked consistency. Tamim Iqbal started off as a bit of a dasher but modified his game to suit the wider needs of international cricket. And Shakib Al Hasan's batting ability seems to have shrunk due to his over-exposure to T20.
