Alok Kapali, Hannan Sharker, Rajin Saleh., Mushfiqur Rahman, Anowar Hossain, Enamul Haque, Mohammad Moniruzzaman, Manjural Islam, Mohammad Ashraful, Mohammad Selim and Mazharul Hoque are all names making rounds for the ‘A’ squad, yet to be officially announced, revealed the source.

The source also added that if Hannan Sarkar’s selection is confirmed he is likely to be named the captain of the selection.

I think BangladesherKhela was mis-informed, Hannan Sarkar is to be named the captain of the BD 'A' team, not the possible replacement of Khaled Mahmud for the national team.

Some senior players like Habibul Basher, Javed Omar, Mohammad Rafique and captain Khaled Mahmud have been left out of this venture as they have been deemed mature enough, by the think tanks, to recover their form on their own accord. They will also be busy with domestic cricket.

Al Shariar Rokon, Tushar Imran, Monjurul Islam and former captain Naimur Rahman have also been avoided from the ‘A’ team speculation.
