A studious left-arm seamer, Manjural Islam seldom bowled a bouncer but instead concentrated on maintaining an off-stump line. He performed creditably in English conditions during the 1999 World Cup, and took 6 for 81 on Test debut against Zimbabwe in Bulawayo in April 2001. Out of contention for a recall for over four years, he decided to join the Bangladesh exodus to the ICL in 2008. He was subsequently handed a ten-year ban by the BCB but he quit the league the following year. He has since joined the ACC as a coach in China.
