i ve seen javed once against pakistan A team in dhaka stadium maybe in 1997. he was opening with atahar, the pakA attack was good. Md jahid who was quickest in the world that time, aqib javed, kabir khan etc almost full pak team. javed was struggling even to put bat on ball while atahar was middling the ball nicely. eventually javed was bowled round his legs. bd finally scored something like 180, ,thanks to late order hitting by shanto.
but he fielded brilliantly. was easily the best bd fielder. my impression was that he is taken in the team more for his fielding than batting.
