Under the managership of Dav Whatmore, he has been found to be the most successful captain to lead the Bangladesh team to overcome several milestones.

Under Habibul Bashar's captaincy, Bangladesh have beaten Australia, India, South Africa and Sri Lanka in limited overs matches.

Keeping up with the traditional inconsistency with announcing the side, Habibul Bashar was again out of the team for Bangladesh's inaugural test.

His consistent performance before the test drew the attention of the press and after heavy criticism from them he was finally included in the side.

In April 2006, they came close to beating Australia in a Test match, taking a first-innings lead of 158, eventually losing by three wickets.

Then he became the captain of the Dhaka Warriors side in ICL.At the end of 2009 he retired from ICL and came back at the mainstream of Bangladesh cricket.
