ராவல்பிண்டியில் ஆகஸ்ட் 21-ம் தேதி முதல் பாகிஸ்தான் – வங்கதேசம் இடையேயான முதல் டெஸ்ட் போட்டி நடைபெற உள்ளது.
Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has recently named a 16-member squad for the upcoming ICC World Test Championship series against Pakistan, with all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan making a notable return to the Test arena. The series, set to begin later this month, will see Bangladesh aiming for their first-ever Test victory against Pakistan.
Shakib to play a key role?
Shakib’s inclusion comes as a surprise to some, given recent speculations about his fitness for the longer format. The 37-year-old veteran has been playing Test cricket since 17 years now. However, Shakib has remained active in T20 leagues worldwide, including stints in the Major League Cricket (USA), Lanka Premier League, and the ongoing Canada’s GT20.
The squad, to be led by Najmul Hossain Shanto, boasts a formidable pace attack with five fast bowlers selected. This strategic decision aims to capitalize on the conditions and challenge the Pakistani batting lineup. However, the experienced Taskin Ahmed will miss the first Test, as he hasn’t bowled in the format since June last year.
