    Spinner Nasum Ahmed Added To Bangladesh Squad For West Indies ODIs

    By IANS News October 19, 2025 • 16:36 PM View: 316
    The Bangladesh Cricket Board: The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) announced on Sunday that left-arm spinner Nasum Ahmed has been added to the ODI squad for the ongoing three-match series against the West Indies. The inclusion of the 30-year-old reflects the team management's effort to strengthen their spin department following a spin-dominated first ODI.

    Nasum, who last featured in an ODI in December 2024, has played 18 matches in the format, claiming 16 wickets at an economy rate of 4.48. His recall is likely a tactical decision, prompted by the spin-friendly conditions witnessed in the series opener at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium (SBNCS) in Mirpur.

    On a sluggish, turning pitch in the first ODI on Saturday, spinners from both sides made a significant impact. For the West Indies, left-arm spinner Khary Pierre impressed with a miserly spell of 1 for 19 from his 10 overs, while off-spinner Roston Chase also chipped in with two crucial wickets. However, it was Bangladesh's spin attack that stole the show. Leg-spinner Rishad Hossain and left-arm orthodox Tanvir Islam shared eight wickets between them, playing pivotal roles in securing a comfortable victory for the hosts.
