Heres what CricBuzz says about him.
The path to that moment wasn’t the easiest. Rubel was jailed by the Dhaka court in a case filed under the Women and Children Repression Prevention Act on January 8, 2015. A Bangladeshi actress had filed the case against Rubel with Mirpur police station on charges of making false promises of marriage. His participation in the 2015 World Cup was under cloud but luckily he was granted bail and subsequently cleared for traveling abroad. After Bangladesh’s win over England on the back of Rubel’s heroics, the complainant withdrew her charges.
Born on January 1, 1990, Rubel Hossain is a fast bowler with a slightly slingy action - which gave him the nickname ‘Bangladesh’s Malinga’. He made his international ODI debut for Bangladesh in January 2009 and made an immediate impact taking 4/33 helping Bangladesh record an upset win over Sri Lanka in Dhaka. Rubel began by playing taped tennis ball cricket in his hometown, Bagerhat. He was noticed in a talent hunt programme where he topped the speed gun.
His hero is fellow paceman, Mashrafe Mortaza with whom he plays domestic cricket for Khulna Division. Rubel recorded his best ODI figures of 4/25 against New Zealand in 2010. This series is popularly known as 'Banglawash' as Bangladesh stunned New Zealand by an impressive margin of 4-0 in the 5 match ODI series. Rubel made his Test debut against West Indies in 2009 and took three wickets in West Indies' 1st innings, and also stitched a good 10th wicket stand with Shahadat Hossain in Bangladesh's 1st innings.
On 29 October 2013, he became the third Bangladeshi bowler to take a hat-trick in ODIs. He got it against New Zealand in Mirpur. The batsmen who were his victims included Corey Anderson, Brendon McCullum and Jimmy Neesham. He also got his best bowling figures (6/26) in that match. Rubel went quiet after a superb World Cup in Australia. There was a dip in his form, but that didn’t hamper his team’s performance as Bangladesh completed the troika of ODI series wins against Pakistan, India and South Africa. He continues to be part of the Bangladesh squads in the longer formats despite his high economy rate as he can trouble any batsman with his pace.
Injury to Mustafizur in the early part of the 2017 Champions Trophy meant that Rubel became an automatic pick. He didn't have a great tournament but has found his mojo back since then. With two injury prone bowlers in Mortaza and Mustafizur in the squad coupled with Taskin's inconsistencies, Rubel has a much bigger role to play in Bangladesh's pace attack for limited-overs cricket. In Tests, he continues to play the odd Test match but hasn't shown the potential to be a long format bowler. He isn't as bad as the numbers show - the stats are shambolic - but Rubel still has a long way to go as a red-ball bowler.

Heres what ESPNcricinfo says about him.
Perhaps the fastest bowler Bangladesh have produced, right-armer Rubel Hossain has a slingy action and a fondness for the short ball. He made an immediate impact in his first ODI, in 2009, taking match-winning figures of 4 for 33 against Sri Lanka, though it took 19 matches after that debut four-for before he bettered that showing, with 4 for 25 against New Zealand at the same venue, Mirpur.
Rubel began by playing tape-ball cricket in his hometown, Bagerhat in south-west Bangladesh, and his talents came to wider notice through a fast-bowler-hunt programme in which he topped the speed gun. He made his cricket debut in 2007, against Khulna Division, for whom his hero Mashrafe Mortaza, who later captained Rubel in internationals, played.
Rubel started his Test career like he had his ODI one, taking three wickets in his first Test innings (but none through the remainder of that Test tour to West Indies). About six months later, his first and only Test five-for reduced New Zealand to 158 for 5 in Hamilton, though they recovered to post a big total and eventually a crushing win. Rubel's best ODI performance too came against New Zealand, in Mirpur, when he took 6 for 26 in his side's win in the first ODI of the 2013 home series, which they went on to win 3-0. Three and a bit months later, he produced his most sustained run in the format, taking seven wickets in three matches against Sri Lanka, also in Mirpur. In T20Is too, he reserved his best for New Zealand, against whom he took consecutive three-wicket hauls in Mount Maunganui early in 2017. In domestic T20, Rubel has most frequently turned out for Dhaka Dominators and Rangpur Riders in the BPL, but he excelled when he moved to Sylhet Strikers in 2023, taking 14 wickets in eight games.
