BCB announces ODI squad

DHAKA: Bangladesh Cricket Board on Saturday announced the squad for the three one day matches against visiting India.

Left-arm pacer Mustafizur Rahman and wicketkeeper-batsman Litton Das are the only uncapped players named in the 14-man squad. They replaced Abul Hasan and the injured Mahmudulah.

Mustafizur’s international debut was in the T20 against Pakistan in April, while Litton made his debut against India in the Fatullah Test.

Abul was in the ODI squad against Pakistan but he didn’t play any matches.

Mahmudullah’s finger injury, ahead of the India Test, made way for Litton. It is also likely that Litton could keep wickets in place of Mushfiqur Rahim who is still struggling with a finger injury.

Mustafizur was impressive since he toured the West Indies with Bangladesh A last year.

He took the wickets of Shahid Afridi and Mohammad Hafeez on his T20I  debut.

The three ODIs against India will be played in Mirpur on June 18, 21 and 24.

ODI squad: Mashrafe Mortaza (C), Tamim Iqbal, Soumya Sarkar, Mominul Haque, Mushfiqur Rahim, Shakib Al Hasan (Vice-Captain), Sabbir Rahman, Nasir Hossain, Arafat Sunny, Taskin Ahmed, Rubel Hossain, Rony Talukdar, Mustafizur Rahman, Litton Das
