Mohammad Javed Omar Belim (born November 25, 1976, Dhaka) is a Bangladeshi cricketer who has played Tests and ODI cricket since 1995.

On his Test debut in April 2001, he carried his bat for 85 not out becoming only the third player in history to achieve this on debut. The 29 year old opener has gained a reputation for being able to occupy the crease as his Test strike rate of 36 shows. On August 28, 2003, Javed scored his maiden Test century against Pakistan.

During the second test between Bangladesh and India in May 2007 he achieved the very rare feat of grabbing a king pair as he got out to the bowling of Zaheer Khan in the first ball of both innings of the Test Match.
