Mohammad Ashraful (born September 9 1984 in Dhaka ) is a Bangladesh i Cricket er.

Ashraful is the youngest batsman to make a Test century, a feat he achieved on his debut. He was a day younger than 17 years when he scored 114 against Sri Lanka on September 8 , 2001 .

Ashraful is regarded as a precociously talented batsman capable of playing all kinds of shots in the book. But he has thrown away his wickets from impregnable positions many times in his career, an ungainly trend often attributed to his youthful impetuosity.

He seemed to have come of age in December 2004, when he scored his second century - a mammoth 158 Not Out - against the touring Indian Cricket Team , and as a result now holds the record for the highest individual Test score by any Bangladeshi. He also became the second Bangladeshi to score an ODI century, making exactly 100 in Bangladesh's stunning win over Australia at Cardiff in the NatWest Series on June 18 , 2005 . He scored a magnificent 138 against Sri Lanka which hepled his team get a respectable total.

He was recently appointed captain of the Dhaka team in Bangladesh's domestic One-day Cricket competition.
