About Shorna Akter

Read full biographyClose biography

Shorna Akter has quickly established herself as one of the brightest young stars in Bangladesh women’s cricket. Born on January 1, 2007, she is a leg-spinning all-rounder with the ability to change games both with bat and ball, making her a player the team can count on in high-pressure moments. Her rise began at the 2023 Under-19 Women’s T20 World Cup, where she scored 153 runs at an average of 51.00 and was the only Bangladeshi cricketer named in the Team of the Tournament. That breakthrough performance not only showcased her talent but also underlined her ability to perform against top opposition. Later the same year, Shorna was fast-tracked into the senior setup and made her T20I debut against Sri Lanka in January 2023. Despite battling injuries and setbacks—such as missing her ODI debut innings due to appendicitis pain—she kept bouncing back stronger. Her all-round display against Pakistan in October 2023, where she played a key role in Bangladesh’s maiden T20I series win over them, further solidified her reputation. Her standout moment came in December 2023 against South Africa, when she produced a stunning spell of 5 for 28, her first five-wicket haul in T20Is. Performances like these have made her a vital figure in Bangladesh’s bowling attack. By 2025, Shorna had already represented Bangladesh in multiple global tournaments, including the T20 World Cup, the Asian Games—where she helped secure a bronze medal—and the World Cup qualifiers. Still only in her teens, she represents the future of Bangladesh cricket: fearless, versatile, and ready to take on the world. (As of September 2025)
