Bangladesh have announced their squad for the upcoming ODI tri-series in the United Arab Emirates, featuring Afghanistan and Zimbabwe, with Aliss Al Islam, who has been very consistent in domestic cricket, earning a maiden ODI call-up.
However, he has represented Bangladesh in only one T20I during the Asian Games in Japan earlier this month, but his impressive performances in domestic cricket have compelled the selectors to include him in the squad. There are also other familiar faces in the squad in Tawhid Hridoy, Tanzid Hasan, Soumya Sarkar, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Musaddek Hossain Saikat and Mehidy Hasan Miraz.
Nahid Rana misses out as he continues to recover from a side strain. The series will begin on 17 October with the clash between Bangladesh and Zimbabwe in Abu Dhabi.
