There were rumors about when the Bangladesh team will be announced for the 2 Test match series against India. Finally the Bangladesh team was announced today. Not much has been changed in the team that whitewashed Pakistan.
Pacer Shariful Islam has been ruled out only due to injury. In his place, wicketkeeper batsman Zaker Ali Anik has been given a chance in the team.
Nazmul Hussain Shanta’s team whitewashed the hosts while playing a 2-match Test series against Pakistan. After winning the first Test by 10 wickets, the Tigers won the second Test by 6 wickets.
Pacer Shariful Islam could not play the second test despite playing the first test. Had to drop out due to injury. Taskin Ahmed played instead. Shariful is not going to India due to that injury.
However, instead of a pacer, a batsman was included in the team for the tour of India. The main reason for this may be the need for extra batters in the tour of India.
As usual captain Nazmul Hossain is calm. Sadman Islam, Zakir Hasan, Liton Das, Mushfiqur Rahim, Muminul Haque, Mahmudul Hasan Zaira are the batters. All-rounders are Shakib Al Hasan, Mehdi Hasan Miraj. There are spin specialist bowlers Taijul Islam, Naeem Hasan etc.
Nazmul Hossain Shanto (Captain), Sadman Islam, Zakir Hasan, Muminul Haque, Mushfiqur Rahim, Shakib Al Hasan, Liton Das, Mehdi Hasan Miraj, Zaker Ali Anik, Taskin Ahmed, Hasan Mahmud, Nahid Rana, Taijul Islam, Mahmudul Hasan Joy, Naeem Hassan and Khaled Ahmed.
