Pakistan vs Bangladesh Test Series: Bangladesh team has to play a two test match series against Pakistan. For this, Bangladesh team will tour Pakistan. Now Bangladesh team has been announced for this series. 16 players have got place in the team. Experienced all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan has returned to Bangladesh Test cricket team. Nazmul Hasan Shanto has been made the captain of the team.
Shakib Al Hasan is back
Shakib Al Hasan last played Test cricket for Bangladesh in March 2024. Bangladesh then hosted Sri Lanka for a two-match series. Since then Shakib has been playing only T20 cricket, from the T20 World Cup to Major League Cricket in the USA and the Global T20 Canada League. Apart from Shakib, Mushfiqur Rahim and Taskin Ahmed have also got a chance in the team. Taskin will play only the second Test starting on August 30.
National Selection Panel Chairman Ghazi Ashraf Hussain said that we have selected five fast bowlers keeping in mind the fact that Taskin Ahmed will play only the second Test. He has not bowled in Tests since June last year. That is why we have decided to include him in the A team for the four-day match against Pakistan-A. This will make it easier for him to get into rhythm in red ball cricket.
Pakistan has not won a single test match yet
Bangladesh team has played 6 test series with Pakistan so far, but has not succeeded in winning even one. A total of 13 test matches have been played between the two teams so far, out of which Pakistan has won 12. While one test was a draw. Bangladesh team will reach Lahore on 13 August and will train at Gaddafi Stadium from 14-16 August before going to Islamabad on 17 August.
Bangladesh Test Squad:
Nazmul Hossain Shanto (captain), Mahmudul Hasan Joy, Zakir Hasan, Shadman Islam, Mominul Haque, Mushfiqur Rahim, Shakib Al Hasan, Litton Kumar Das, Mehdi Hasan Miraz, Taijul Islam, Nayeem Hasan, Nahid Rana, Shoriful Islam, Hasan Mahmud, Taskin Ahmed and Syed Khaled Ahmed.
