Mehidy Hasan Miraz Named Bangladesh ODI Captain For 12-month Term
BCB Cricket Operations Committee Chairman: The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has appointed all-rounder Mehidy Hasan Miraz as the captain of the men’s One Day International (ODI) team for the next 12 months. The 27-year-old will lead the team starting from the upcoming three-match ODI series in Sri Lanka next month, succeeding Najmul Hossain Shanto.
A dependable performer with both bat and ball, Miraz has already experienced leadership duties, having captained Bangladesh in four ODIs in Shanto’s absence. His formal promotion to the top job now reflects the board’s confidence in his consistency, maturity, and leadership abilities.
“Captaining the national team is a dream come true,” said Miraz after the announcement. “I’m incredibly honoured by the trust the Board has placed in me. This is a proud moment for me and my family. I believe in this group — we have the skills and the mindset to play fearless cricket. I want us to express ourselves confidently, stay committed, and keep playing with heart for the country.”
