Lamba was well-known even though his career in international cricket did not succeed. He  was one of the first few international players to play club cricket in Bangladesh.

Raman, who excels in fielding in such situations, was called. Lamba argued that it was only a matter of three balls when Mashud requested him to wear a helmet.
