Captain Muminul and Liton Das are there.

Sources said yesterday that the idea of ​​sorting out bowling attacks with fast bowlers has been dropped. Because Taskin Ahmed and Shariful Islam are not among the top pacers injured in this series. Ebadat Hossain will be able to play the series even if he sews with his hands. Besides, Abu Zayed Rahi and Khaled Ahmed are fit. But the pacers will need very little in the two Tests. It may be that there will be only one pacer in the XI.

It is learned that the selectors have finalized the squad for the series against Sri Lanka. The team will be announced soon. The selectors are waiting for the approval of the BCB president. Iftar organized by BCB today may get the approval of the President.
