Her raw talent caught the attention of a coach at a nearby cricket academy, marking the genesis of what would become a stellar career.

Her entry into professional cricket was nothing short of meteoric.

She has often been a thorn in the side of their Ashes counterparts, her fierce rivalry with England becoming a staple of women's cricket.

Known for her strategic mind and fierce composure under pressure, Pinky’s playing style combines the aggression of fast bowling with the subtlety of strategic batting when needed. While her primary role has always been with the ball, she has occasionally demonstrated an aptitude with the bat, often stepping in when her team found themselves in dire straits.

On the field, Pinky possesses a charisma that inspires both teammates and spectators alike. Her performances in domestic championships consistently draw crowds, her name synonymous with reliability and zeal. Pinky’s contributions extend off the field, as she engages in numerous mentoring programmes, ensuring her legacy is not solely defined by her statistics but also by the impact she has on future generations.

With each passing year, Habiba Islam Pinky not only furthers her career but continues to shape the very fabric of women’s cricket in Bangladesh and beyond, making her journey a riveting chapter in the annals of the sport.
