Selectors call 20 for Zim series

Sports ReporterThe national selectors announced a 20-member preliminary squad on Monday for the one-day series against Zimbabwe in December this year.

Chief selector Rafiqul Alam said that they picked the squad keeping the World Cup in mind.

Former national skipper Mohammad Ashraful, who was dropped for the recently concluded one-day series against New Zealand, has been drafted into the side while top-order batsman Shuvagoto Hom was the only uncapped player in the list.

"We chose the players not only keeping the Zimbabwe tour but also the World Cup in mind. We didn't make any major changes as we focused on the players who were in our consideration for the last two years," said Rafiqul.

The training camp for the ODI series, which will kick off on December 1 at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur, will start on October 31 and the selected players will not be available for their respective divisional teams for the ongoing National Cricket League (NCL) after the third round.

The NCL third round will take place on October 29.

SQUAD

Shakib Al Hasan, Mashrafe Bin Mortaza, Tamim Iqbal, Imrul Kayes, Shahriar Nafees, Junaed Siddiqui, Rokibul Hassan, Mushfiqur Rahim, Mahmudullah Riyad, Abdur Razzak, Shafiul Islam, Rubel Hossain, Sohrawordi Shuvo, Naeem Islam, Jahirul Islam, Syed Rasel, Nazmul Hossain, Mohammad Ashraful, Shahadat Hossain, Shuvagoto Hom
