Who is Nahid Rana? The fastest right-arm bowler in Bangladesh!

Nahid Rana is an out-and-out fast bowler who consistently bowls at speeds exceeding 140 kph. Her aggressive approach and ability to swing the ball both ways make her a formidable opponent for any batsman. 

This young right-hand batter is currently in the spotlight for being a wrecker-in-chief in the Bangladesh vs. Pakistan test match going on in Rawalpindi, causing plenty of problems with his awkward bounce and pace. 

He bowled Mohammad Rizwan on the side of the helmet with a bouncer, who continued to hold the fort, and had Salman Agha for company. Though being a bit fizzy, Rizwan went on to score a gritty half-century. 

Salman also contributed to Pakistan's success in the session by ensuring they did not lose another wicket. The couple added 36 runs before the lunch break and intends to continue for as long as possible.
