BCB Reveals Team Selection For T20Is And ODIs Against Sri Lanka

The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has unveiled the squad for the forthcoming three-match T20I series and the initial two ODIs against Sri Lanka scheduled for next month.

Right-arm spinner Aliss Al Islam has received his first call-up to the national T20I squad, while experienced all-rounder Mahmudullah Riyad makes a comeback to the T20I roster following impressive recent performances.

Aliss’ selection comes as a surprise, considering his modest record of 19 wickets in 24 T20 matches. The decision to omit spinners like Mehidy Hasan Miraz or Tanvir Islam for the T20Is is also unexpected.

Afif Hossain and Shamim Hossain have been left out from the T20I squad despite their participation in the last T20I series against New Zealand.

The series against Sri Lanka kicks off on March 4th with the first T20I at Sylhet International Stadium, followed by matches on March 6th and 9th at the same venue. The first two matches are scheduled for a 6 pm start, while the third will commence at 3 pm.

The action then moves to Chattogram for the ODIs, with matches slated for March 13th, 15th, and 18th. The first two ODIs are set to begin at 2:30 pm, with the third match starting at 10 am.

After the limited-overs contests, the teams will engage in a two-match Test series. The first Test is set to commence on March 22nd in Chattogram, followed by the second Test starting on March 30th in Sylhet.
