Mahidul islam bhuiyan

Gazi Ashraf Hossain: Bangladesh have recalled Litton Das, fast bowlers Nahid Rana and Shoriful Islam into their ODI squad for the upcoming three-match series against Pakistan starting on March 11 in Mirpur.

Bangladesh chief selector Gazi Ashraf Hossain confirmed that the team selections were driven by the goal to strengthen the middle order, following the failure of several players to secure their spots.

"We have provided opportunities to several players in the middle order, but unfortunately some have not done enough to secure their places. With that in mind, Afif Hossain has been recalled. He has never been away from our plans. Afif brings valuable experience and is currently in good touch. Mahidul Islam Bhuiyan has been retained, and this is another opportunity for him to fulfil the potential he has shown," Ashraf said.
