T20 calls for Anamul, Mominul and Sohag Gazi – Cricket News Update
Bangladesh Cricket Board on Saturday named its squad for the one-off T20 International against the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/West-Indies-c760, to be played here at the Shere Bangla National Stadium in Dhaka on Monday, December 10, 2012.
The BCB selectors have picked up three uncapped players as well in the 14-man squad. The 21-year-old Barisal off-spinner Sohag Gazi, who made impressive Test and ODI debuts in the preceding series against the same Windies opposition, has been named in the hosts’ squad for the T20 encounter as well. The other two Bangladesh players earning their maiden T20 International call ups are the 19-year-old second ODI centurion http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Anamul-Haque-c44160 and left-handed all-rounder Mominul Haque.
The 20-year-old Sylhet Division seamer http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Abul-Hasan-c41857, who scored a century playing at No. 10 in the Khulna Test last month, is the only newcomer to miss out. The rookie fast bowler, who made his Test and ODI debuts during the ongoing home series against West Indies, is yet to recover from the side strain he had picked up during Bangladesh’s 160-run win in the second one-dayer in Khulna.
Veteran all-rounder http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Shakib-Al-Hasan-c89559, who has been advised a six-week rest due to a stress reaction on his right tibia, expectedly was not picked. The side strain had also kept the left-hander out of the recently concluded five-match ODI series against the Windies, which his side won 3-2.
Former Bangladesh skipper http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sri-Lanka-c758 a couple of months ago, failed to make the cut this time around.
Mushfiqur Rahim, who was given the reins of the Bengali Tigers in September last year, continues to lead the side.
As far as the shortest format of the game is concerned, the Tigers have had a quite successful 2012 year, winning four out of eight games. The one-off T20I against the Windies tomorrow will be http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Bangladesh-c747’s last international appearance this year.
