Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has declared the 17-man Bangladesh squad for the forthcoming Asia Cup, calling back middle-order batsman Sabbir Rahman in it.
The announcement came from a meeting at board president Nazmul Hassan’s residence in Gulshan, Dhaka on Saturday.
Sabbir is not the only returnee in the squad as all-rounder Mohammad Saifuddin, who got injured during last year’s ICC T20 World Cup, has also returned to the Bangladesh team.
On the other hand, opener Munim Shahriar and pacer Shoriful Islam, who had poor outings in the Zimbabwe T20Is, have been dropped from the squad.
Liton Das also missed the cut owing to an injury he sustained during the ODI series against Zimbabwe. However, another injured player Nurul Hasan has been included in the squad.
Bangladesh squad: Shakib Al Hasan (c), Anamul Haque, Mushfiqur Rahim, Afif Hossain, Mosaddek Hossain, Mahmudullah, Mahedi Hasan, Mohammad Saifuddin, Hasan Mahmud, Mustafizur Rahman, Nasum Ahmed, Sabbir rahman, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Ebadot Hossain, Parvez Hossain, Nurul Hasan and Taskin Ahmed
