Bangladesh showed ultimate failure in batting in the first test of Mirpur Test against South Africa. After being bowled out for just 106 runs, the Proteas took a lead of 202 runs. Despite the visitors' batting ability to adapt to the conditions, it was the same picture for the Tigers at the start of the second innings. The pair of Mehdi Hasan Miraj and Zaker Ali Anik showed Bangladesh the way to handle that disaster. In the meantime, Mirage has built a unique feat.

Bangladeshi all-rounder Miraj Kirti has achieved the feat in the current 2023-25 ​​cycle of the World Test Championship. Mirage is the only cricketer to achieve this feat in world cricket. Has taken more than 30 wickets along with 500 runs in the ongoing Test cycle.

The trio held the feat of scoring the lowest 500 runs and 30 wickets in the World Test Championship since 2019. Mirage has also been added to that list. England Test captain Ben Stokes took 34 wickets along with 1334 runs in the 2019-21 cycle. In the 2021-23 cycle, Indian star Ravindra Jadeja has taken 721 runs and 47 wickets. Stokes also achieved the same feat in the same cycle of the Test Championship. After Jadeja, he took 30 wickets along with 971 runs. This time Mirage joined the ongoing cycle with 512 runs and 34 wickets.

Naturally, Mirage is Bangladesh's highest run-scorer and wicket-taker in the ongoing Test Championship. Muminul Haque is next in terms of runs. The left-handed former Tigers captain has scored 478 runs in the ongoing cycle. Apart from this, Mushfiqur Rahim scored 452 and Nazmul Hossain scored 438 runs.
