Bangladesh have included seasoned all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan in their 15-member roster for the upcoming T20 World Cup, slated to happen jointly in the West Indies and the United States.
The team, spearheaded by batsman Najmul Hossain Shanto, has faced recent uncertainties surrounding Shakib's availability due to an eye problem. However, with his return, Bangladesh looks to capitalise on his expertise and experience in the cricket arena.
Shakib's reintegration into the T20 international scene comes after nearly a year's hiatus, marked by a triumphant comeback during the recent home series against Zimbabwe. His impactful performance, clinching five wickets across two matches.
The inclusion of pace bowler Tanzim Hasan Sakib, following his notable contributions in the 4-1 series victory, and the recall of Shoriful Islam after a brief rest further fortify Bangladesh's depth in the mega event.
With eyes set on World Cup Group D, featuring opponents like Sri Lanka, South Africa, the Netherlands, and Nepal, Bangladesh brace for an intense tournament running from June 1 to June 29.
