The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has announced the squad for the first two ODIs of this month’s series against Australia in Dhaka.
The three-match ODI series will begin on 9 June, while the second and third matches are scheduled for 11 and 14 June respectively.
Bangladesh have made a few changes from the squad that featured in the previous ODI series against New Zealand in April. Batsmen Afif Hossain and Mahidul Islam Bhuiyan have been left out of the squad.
All-rounder Musaddek Hossain Saikot has earned a recall to the national side after four years. The 30-year-old right-handed batter last played an ODI for Bangladesh in August 2022.
Wicketkeeper-batter Quazi Nurul Hasan Sohan has also returned to the squad after missing the New Zealand series.
Mehidy Hasan Miraz will lead the side in the first two matches against Australia.
Bangladesh Squad:
Mehidy Hasan Miraz (Captain), Soumya Sarkar, Saif Hassan, Tanzid Hasan, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Towhid Hridoy, Litton Kumer Das, Musaddek Hossain Saikot, Quazi Nurul Hasan Sohan, Rishad Hossain, Tanvir Islam, Mustafizur Rahman, Taskin Ahmed, Shoriful Islam and Nahid Rana.
