In January 2017, he scored his maiden double-century in first-class cricket, playing for East Zone in the 2016–17 Bangladesh Cricket League.[4] As a result of this, he was recalled to Bangladesh's Test squad for their one-off match against India in February 2017.[5]
He scored the most runs in the 2016–17 Dhaka Premier Division Cricket League, with 752 in 14 matches.[6]
In April 2018, he was the leading run-scorer in the 2017–18 Bangladesh Cricket League, with 779 runs in six matches, including scoring 274 runs in one innings.[7][8]
In October 2018, he was named in the squad for the Sylhet Sixers team, following the draft for the 2018–19 Bangladesh Premier League.[9]

Liton made his Test debut against India on 10 June 2015.[10] He made his One Day International debut, also against India, on 18 June 2015.[11] He made his Twenty20 International debut against South Africa on 5 July 2015.[12]
On 2 March 2017, Bangladesh's captain Mushfiqur Rahim was asked to play as a batsman only, with Das becoming the wicket-keeper for the Test series against Sri Lanka.[13]
On 28 September 2018, against India in the final of the 2018 Asia Cup, he scored his maiden ODI century and went on to make 121(117) with 12 boundaries and 2 sixes. He would eventually win “Man of the Match” for his effort, despite Bangladesh losing the match off the last ball.[14]
