Bangladesh is one of the best rising teams for quite a few years now. But in the last 18 months, they have emerged as the team to beat in the limited overs competition. They handed 2-1 series defeats to both India and South Africa last year and reached the finals of Asia Cup this year, beating Sri Lanka and Pakistan on their way.

In the ongoing World T20 qualifiers, Bangladesh has been one of the strongest teams in their group and with most of its players in form; it is difficult to pick anyone out for special adulation. But here are 5 players from the Bangladesh team that you should keep an eye out for in the main draw of World T20 2016.

1. Soumya Sarkar

Left-handed opener Soumya Sarkar has been a revelation in last few months. His ability to play an aggressive innings using pure technical shots has been amazing to watch. He plays a pretty risk-free game, while giving out high returns in form of quick runs. He has a strike rate of 130+ in T20Is which is phenomenal for a batsman with such a solid technique and temperament. He is without doubt one of the most exciting openers in the World T20 2016.
