Kamal caught the eye of Dhanmondi Club officials while representing Rangamati District in the Sher-e-Bangla Cup, and joined the Dhaka First Division League club in 1981. After two years with Dhanmondi-based club, Kamal joined Brothers Union in 1983, despite being a bindings player of Dhanmondi Club, leading him to be banned for the entire season. In 1984, he returned to Dhanmondi Club, and remained participating in the First Division of Chittagong with Chittagong Abahani. While playing for the Chittagong-based club, he caught the eye of Dhaka Abahani coach Kazi Salahuddin and was signed by the Dhaka-based club in 1985. His most notable moments while playing for Abahani, came during the 1988 Federation Cup, scoring the winner in the Dhaka derby against Mohammedan.[2] He also scored an important goal against Brothers Union in a 3–2 victory in the 1985 league title deciding match. Kamal also represented Abahani at the 1985–86 Asian Club Championship held in Colombo, Sri Lanka, scoring against both Sri Lanka's Saunders SC and Pakistan's PIA. He ended his short career playing in both Dhaka and Chittagong in 1990.[3][4]

International career

[edit]

Kamal began his international career playing for Bangladesh Green (national B team) at the Bangladesh President's Gold Cup in 1982. He also represented the B team, known as Bangladesh Blue at the 1987 tournament, scoring against both Kolkata Mohammedan and Syria.[5] He first represented the Bangladesh national team at the 1986 Pakistan President's Cup, during which he scored in a 1–1 draw with Pakistan Customs.
