Mehidy Hasan Miraz Returns to Bangladesh Squad for T20I Series Against India

Mehidy Hasan Miraz will return to Bangladesh’s T20I after a 14-month hiatus. Mehidy Hasan Miraz is always considered to be a player with the potential to bring much-needed experience and versatility for the team. He is one of those cricketing sensations who could deliver outstanding all-round performances both with bat and ball in his hand. His return is going to make the Bangladesh outfit even stronger, which is all set to take on India in their series.

Bangladesh’s Squad Includes Young Talents


This team also features the promising young players, among which some of the new entrant names include Parvez Hossain Emon and Rakibul Hasan. While Emon is a southpaw opening batsman, Rakibul is a left-arm orthodox spinner. That goes to prove what more glaring efforts the Bangladesh Cricket Board is putting together to bring forth new talent for future international tournaments.


Shakib Al Hasan and Soumya Sarkar are not available

Where is Shakib Al Hasan, who has retired from T20I cricket already? The biggest player missing from the side will be Shakib. His absence will create a vacuum in the Bangladesh team, as he has been the top performer for Bangladesh in the shortest format. His domestic counterpart, Soumya Sarkar, who featured in the T20 World Cup this year, hasn’t also been considered for the squad.

Schedule of India vs. Bangladesh T20I Series

The three-match T20I series will be played in India from 6th October. The match on 6th October will take place in Gwalior, on 9th October at New Delhi, and on 12th October in Hyderabad. This is, therefore, the best chance for both teams to try out their respective strengths during this interesting series.
