Khaled Mashud (Bengali: খালেদ মাসুদ) (born February 8, 1976 in Rajshahi) is a Bangladeshi cricketer. Popularly known by his nickname Pilot, Khaled has been Bangladesh's regular wicketkeeper behind the stumps and is one of the most experienced members of the side. Bangladesh's coach Dav Whatmore, went as far as to claim that he was the best keeper in Asia.[citation needed] His place in the side has recently come under some pressure with the emergence of Mushfiqur Rahim, combined with Khaled's failure to score a half century in 24 Test innings. His greatest achievement with the bat has been his unbeaten second-innings century in St Lucia with gave Bangladesh an honourable draw in their first Caribbean encounter. He was one of 3 Bangladeshi batsmen to score a century in the series.

In February 2006, he was fined after being found guilty of bringing the game into disrepute during a match against Sri Lanka.[1]
