Shakib Al Hasan who missed Bangladesh\u2019s tour of New Zealand with a finger injury has been included in their 15-man squad for the ICC World <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cup\n 2019 starting May 30. The all-rounder picked up the injury during the \nBangladesh Premier League and subsequently missed the series against New\n Zealand. However, he recovered to be given the No Objection Certificate\n to compete in the Indian Premier League for the Sunrisers Hyderabad. \nHowever, he has played only one game for SRH and is likely to be \nrecalled home to join the national team camp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The 31-year-old all\n rounder has come in place of fellow left-handed batsman, Mominul Haque,\n with the selectors keeping faith in the team that was whitewashed 3-0 \nin New Zealand. Tamim Iqbal is an automatic selection for Bangladesh at \nthe top of the order, but the southpaw has struggled to find an ideal \npartner.Liton Das, who can also keep wickets, struggled in the New \nZealand ODIs, ending up with three consecutive scores of one. His \nbatting average of 19.53 after 27 matches has meant Bangladesh have \noften struggled to get the desired start from their openers. But, the \nselectors have persisted with the talented batsman ahead of Imrul Kayes,\n whose experience of playing World Cups hasn\u2019t been enough to earn him a\n place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the middle order, selectors haven\u2019t made any \nsignificant changes with Soumya Sarkar and Sabbir Rahman securing spots \nin the 15-man squad. Mohammad Mithun\u2019s recent batting has earned him a \nmaiden World Cup call. Mohammad Saifuddin and Mehidy Hasan also have \nreceived their maiden World Cup call-ups. Both of them bring balance \nwith their all round skills.\n\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
