Linkon Jamil

Linkon Jamil, born on 19th January 1998, has emerged as a shining star in the cricketing world, renowned for his all-round abilities that have dazzled fans and confounded opponents. Growing up in the bustling cityscape of Dhaka, Linkon's journey to professional cricket began in the bylanes of his neighbourhood, where he honed his skills with makeshift cricket gear. It was here that his love for the game blossomed, encouraged by his cricket-enthusiast father who, recognising his son’s potential, enrolled him in a prominent local cricket academy at the tender age of ten.

Linkon’s adaptability with the bat quickly caught the attention of scouts, as he tirelessly refined his stroke play to suit varied game situations. His ability to transition seamlessly between defensive play and explosive hitters made him a fixture in age-group tournaments. By the time he made his professional debut for Dhaka Raiders in the 2016 domestic season, he was already marked as one to watch. His debut match was nothing short of memorable — an artful fifty laced with boundaries and clever singles announced his arrival.

Over the years, Linkon has stacked up an impressive collection of achievements, both individually and as part of his team. He was a pivotal figure in leading Dhaka Raiders to their first national championship victory, and his performances in international leagues have set numerous records, including a scintillating century in just 50 balls during the 2021 T20 Championship — a record for the franchise.

Linkon's rivalry with Rajiv Singh, an equally skillful allrounder from a competing team, has been a staple of cricket discussions, offering fans countless memorable duels, particularly in the high-stakes final of the 2022 Premier League. Jamil's impressive spell of 4 for 32 in that match effectively turned the tide in favour of his team, showcasing his versatile bowling prowess that combines strategic seam placement with deceptive spin.

His unique ability to adapt is perhaps his greatest strength. Whether it’s turning the innings in tricky wickets with steadfast patience or accelerating the score with agile lofted drives, Linkon has mastered it all. His bowling, too, reflects his chameleon-like ability to read the game, making him indispensable both as a bowler and a batsman.

Linkon Jamil’s rise in the world of cricket stands as a testament to his enduring talent and indomitable spirit, leaving an indelible mark on the landscape of the game. His cricketing journey, still unfolding, promises to deliver more riveting chapters in the years to come.
