Nazimuddin, a right-handed top-order batsman, began his first-class career for Chittagong Division at the age of 16. He was soon called up to the Bangladesh A and Under-19 sides and a string of decent scores kept him in the selectors' minds. Scores of 103 and 82 in the final of the four-day National League were not enough for Chittagong to keep Dhaka away from title glory in 2005 but Nazimuddin's success against England A in early 2007 pushed his claims for an international call-up. He was included in Bangladesh's squad for the Twenty20 World Championship in South Africa with the reputation for being a big hitter at the top. He proved it in a Twenty20 international against Pakistan, smashing 81. However, he struggled with his consistency in the one-dayers and after just seven games, risked his career by joining the Bangladesh exodus to the ICL. He was banned for 10 years by the BCB but he quit the league after one season, thereby reviving hopes of a comeback.
