Bangladesh announce their Squad for ODI series against India

Bangladesh announce their Squad for ODI series against India: Of late the Bangladesh Cricket Board has announced their squad for the 3-match ODI series against India. India will be playing a total of 3 One Day International Matches and the series will be starting from 18^th June.

The solitary test has been rather displeasing owing to the rain interventions. Leaving behind a few sessions, rain has played the spoil sport throughout the test and we are likely to witness a draw result in the test match.

Meanwhile, the ODI squad has been announced for the Bangladesh team. The World Cup skipper of Bangladesh, Mashrafe Mortaza, who took his team through to the quarter finals when they lost against India will be leading the squad for the ODI series.

The batting line up will be monitored by the likes of Tamim Iqbal, Mushfiqur Rahim, Soumya Sarkar, aided by the all-round brilliance of Shakib-Al-Hasan, who has been appointed as the vice captain.

Taskin Ahmed, the young pacer who was dropped from the test squad has been included into the 14-man ODI squad and he might well pose a serious threat to the Indian batsmen.

Also, other bowlers in the likes of skipper, Mortaza, Rubel Hossain and Shakib will play the pivotal characters for Bangladesh in the series.

Two uncapped players, in the likes of Litton Das and left-handed batsman, Mustafizur Rahman has been included in the squad. It is quite much likely that Litton will be playing the role of a wicket keeper batsman while Rahim, owing to his injuries will be playing as a batsman in the team.

All the three ODIs will be played in the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium, Mirpur. The first ODI will be held on 18^th June followed by 21^st and 24^th June for the second and third ODIs respectively. All the three ODIs will be Day Night matches.

Mashrafe Mortaza (capt), 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
