List of Bangladesh Premier League five-wicket hauls

Mohammad Sami took the first five-wicket haul as well has the most economical five-wicket haul in the BPL.

In cricket, a five-wicket haul (also known as a "five-for" or "fifer")[1][2] refers to a bowler taking five or more wickets in a single innings. This is regarded as a notable achievement.[3] The Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) is a professional Twenty20 cricket league in Bangladesh which has been held annually since its first season in 2012.[4] Though Following the match fixing scandal, the league was not played in the year 2014. It started again at year 2015, the third season of this tournament.[5] In the eight seasons played, sixteen five-wicket hauls have been taken by fifteen different bowlers.[6]

The first five-wicket haul was taken by Mohammad Sami of the Duronto Rajshahi against the Dhaka Gladiators on 27 February 2012.[7] Sami took five wickets for six runs. The most recent five-wicket haul was taken by Mustafizur Rahman of the Comilla Victorians against Chattogram in Dhaka on 3 February 2022. Mohammad Amir of Khulna Tigers has the best bowling figures in an innings by a player in the competition. It was also the only six-wicket haul. Sami's five wicket haul was also the most economical five-wicket haul. He took five wickets with an economy rate of 1.80 and a bowling average of 1.20 in that match. Al-Amin Hossain of the Barisal Bulls took the least economical five-wicket haul, bowling with an economy rate of 9.00.[8]

Thisara Perera is the only cricketer to take multiple five-wicket hauls. Fourteen five-wicket hauls have been taken at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium. Al-Amin Hossain of Barisal Bulls is the only bowler to take a hat-trick and a five-wicket haul in a Bangladesh Premier League Match.[9]

The 2017 season and 2019–20 season has seen the most number of five-wicket hauls in one season. Four five-wicket hauls had been taken in those seasons. While the 2013 and 2019 seasons had the fewest five-wicket hauls where no bowler could pick up a five-wicket haul.[6] Thirteen times out of sixteen times a team won, when a player of that team picked up a five-wicket haul. Shakib Al Hasan and Nasir Hossain are the only players to take five-wicket haul while captaining their side. Shakib captained Dhaka Dynamites and Nasir captained the Sylhet Sixers.
