The Bangladesh
Cricket Board named a 14-man T20I squad for the upcoming series against
Afghanistan on Monday. Munim Shahriar and Yasir Ali have been the two uncapped
players selected by the BCB for the two-match series. Besides, Shakib Al Hasan
and Mushfiqur Rahim have returned to the team.
There was some doubt regarding Mohammad Naim's inclusion in
the team after a poor performance in the just-finished BPL season 8. However,
Naim has been included in the series.
Some of the
well-known stars in the Twenty20 team were left out after a poor showing in the
Bangladesh Premier League. Akbar Ali, Aminul Islam, Saif Hassan, Najmul Hossain
Shanto, Nurul Hasan, and Shamim Hossain are among the players. Neither player
was very impressive in the BPL T20 franchise competition.
Munim Shahriar
has been selected for the squad because he had a successful BPL 2022 season for
Fortune Barishal. Munim opened the innings for Barishal during the competition
and dazzled everyone with his power hitting. Munim scored 178 runs in six
innings with a 152.13 strike rate in the Bangladesh Premier League 2022. The
middle-order batter for the Khulna Tigers, Yasir Ali has also been included,
having made 219 runs in 11 innings with a strike rate of 139.49. They might
make their T20 debut for Bangladesh in the next series against Afghanistan.
Shakib Al Hasan,
Mushfiqur Rahim, and Liton Das did not play in the Pakistan series in November
2021 after a disastrous T20 World Cup 2021 campaign. However, they have been
picked for the Afghanistan series by the selectors. Mahmudullah Riyad-led
Bangladesh will find it difficult to defeat Afghanistan in the BAN vs AFG T20I
Series 2022.
