international cricket in 2021. There was a lot of discussion about him in the
beginning. There was a lot of hope for Shamim, who is good at playing attacking
and clever shots.
However, he could not prove
himself in the international arena. Shamim has scored 124 runs, with an average
of 15.5, a strike rate of 111.7 in 10 T20Is. Shamim lost his place in the team eventually.&nbsp;However, he is only 22 years old. The young batter has an infinite amount of time ahead of him. He is also working hard to make it back to the national squad.

Why Shanto was picked over Soumya in T20 World Cup team, reveals BCB president

The Bangladesh Cricket Board
(BCB) left out the senior cricketers that they had relied on for a long time in
the T20 series against Zimbabwe. But Anamul Haque Bijoy, who returned to the
team after the outstanding performance, could not prove himself and Najmul
Hossain Shanto, a regular member of the team for a long time, also failed.
<img src="https://api.bdcrictime.com/shanto-soumya-28_09_2022.jpg">Not only that. Naim Sheikh,&nbsp;Munim Shahriar or Parvez Hossain Emon - they could not do justice to their name also. Although Naim, Bijoy,
and Munim were not included in the T20 World Cup team, Shanto, who was not in
the Asia Cup team, was included strangely. But there are experienced performers
like Soumya Sarkar on the reserve bench.
Ever since the announcement of
the team, many people have not been able to reconcile - why Shanto has been
included in the World Cup team, keeping an experienced T20 performer like
Soumya on standby. BCB president Nazmul Hassan Papon explained the reason.
Soumya lost his place in the team
after the last T20 World Cup, after which he did not play in any format. Shant
has played erratically in limited overs, an indispensable member of the team in
Tests. And that's why the long-term experience has yielded to the recent
experience.
Papon said, “There is a common
thing in our country - right-handed and left-handed combinations. Since Tamim
is not playing, we have both these options (Soumya and Shanto). Judging by
experience, Soumya is ahead. But he is not with our national team for a long
time. So, how will he play suddenly? From this side, Shanto has the experience
of being with the Test team.”
But based on experience, Soumya
has been kept as a backup player. The board president also gave a glimpse of
using Soumya if the experience is needed in the World Cup.

Miraz enjoying his new role as opener

Naim Sheikh, Munim Shahriar,
 Parvez Hossain Emon, Anamul Haque Bijoy, Saif Hassan – Bangladesh have tried
 many openers in the opening slot in T20I in recent times. Still, no one could
 settle down. Before a mega event like the T20 World Cup, the team have relied
 on two batsmen, none of whom are openers.
<img src="https://api.bdcrictime.com/mehidy-hasan-miraz-26_09_2022.jpg">
Mehidy Hasan Miraz is basically a
 bowling all-rounder. Sabbir Rahman was not in team for a long time. But he’s
 included and given the responsibility of the opener of the national team. Miraz
 and Sabbir opened the Tigers' last two matches in a row. There is no denying
 that Miraz has done well.
Miraz played a big role in the
 first T20 win against UAE, albeit with the ball. He couldn't do much with the
 bat. However, after the match, he said that he is enjoying his new role in the
 opening. Earlier, the all-rounder has the experience of opening in the events
 like Bangladesh Premier League (BPL). So there is no reason to think twice
 about getting this role in the national team.
Miraz said, “Team management
 decided to ask me to open, I enjoy that role because I play that position in
 domestic cricket. This surface was a bit difficult to bowl on with the dew, it
 was about being mentally strong to play easily. I try to think positively all
 the time.”
Miraz is in good spirits despite
 a tough win against underdog UAE. He added, “It was an excellent match, the
 boys played really well, specially Afif. It was a great achievement for us
 today with such a young team.”

Naim added to Asia Cup squad, Sohan and Hasan ruled out of the tournament 

After being dropped from the
national team, Bangladesh opener Naim Sheikh was added in the Bangladesh 'A'
team. However, Naim once again got a place in the national team with his
performance there. This opener has been included in the squad of the Bangladesh
team for the Asia Cup.
<img src="https://api.bdcrictime.com/naim-sheikh-22_08_2022.jpg">Naim was dropped after playing
the home series against Afghanistan. The selectors left Naim out of the team
and gave Munim Shahriar a chance as the 23-year-old opener failed to get runs
according to the mood of T20 despite scoring almost regular runs. However,
Munim, who is known for his attacking batting, could not do justice to his name
despite playing five T20Is.
So Munim lost his place in the
Asia Cup team. Naim was not there either. Only Anamul Haque Bijoy and Parvez
Hossain Emon were in the squad as recognized openers. There has been a lot of
talk about the opening pairing over the past few days due to Emon's inexperience.
Meanwhile, Naim Sheikh scored a century for the 'A' team.
The left-handed opener played an
innings of 103 runs off 116 balls in the second ODI against the West Indies 'A'
team. He returned for a duck in the first match and 3 runs in the third match.
However, the selectors are finding confidence in the injured Bangladesh team in
his hands. So, Naim has been called up to the Asia Cup squad. He will join the
national team after returning from West Indies.
Meanwhile, due to injury, pacer
Hasan Mahmud and wicket-keeper batsman Nurul Hasan Sohan have been left out of
the Asia Cup squad. 
Bangladesh squad for Asia Cup:
Shakib Al Hasan (c), Anamul Haque Bijoy, Mushfiqur Rahim, Afif Hossain, Mosaddek
Hossain, Mahmudullah Riyad, Mahedi Hasan, Mohammad Saifuddin, Mustafizur
Rahman, Nasum Ahmed, Sabbir Rahman, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Taskin Ahmed, Ebadot
Hossain, Parvez Hossain Emon, Naim Sheikh.

Bangladesh not worried about opening slot because of Bijoy 

Bangladesh’s one of the best
openers Tamim Iqbal's retirement from the T20 created real trouble in the
opening slot of the team. Litton Das also got injured in the last series
against Zimbabwe. On the other side, several openers were examined, but none
could reciprocate their trust.
<img src="https://api.bdcrictime.com/bijoy-opener-18_08_2022.jpg">Even though Naim Sheikh scored
runs, his batting did not have T20 quality. Munim Shahriar, who played really
well in the BPL and DPL, has been dropped from the team as he failed to prove
himself after getting a chance in 5 matches. So, along with Anamul Haque Bijoy,
the Asia Cup squad has only Parvez Hossain Emon, who recently debuted against
Zimbabwe, as the openers.
As pessimism grows ahead of the
Asia Cup over the opening pair, Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) president Nazmul
Hassan Papon is relieved by Bijoy's presence. 
Papon said, “There’s no Tamim or
Litton. But the good thing is Bijoy had been added in the team a few months
ago, now at least he stays. We tried with a few others too... Munim in a few
matches and Emon in one match. But it was not enough. They should be given more
time.”
The team management has kept Mehidy
Hasan Miraz, Mushfiqur Rahim, Mahedi Hasan, and even captain Shakib Al Hasan in
the opening thoughts. Emon is unlikely to play in the first match. Miraz can be
seen in the role of opener in the match against Afghanistan with Bijoy.
Papon, however, is leaving all
decisions to newly appointed T20 captain Shakib. He added, “Emon can come to
the opening. If not, who can come? I have heard many names. Mahedi, Miraz,
Mushfiqur are there.
“However, decisions will be made
keeping in mind where the game is being played and who the opponent is, how
they can play the ball. The decision will be taken by the captain. If the
captain wants, he can open himself.”

Live: Zimbabwe elect to bat first again, both teams make three changes 

Zimbabwe have won the toss again
and elected to bat first for the third straight time in the series against the
hosts Bangladesh of the three-match T20I series on Tuesday (August 2) in
Harare. The series is extremely well poised at 1-1, with Zimbabwe winning the
first one and the Tigers coming back strongly in the second one.
<img src="https://api.bdcrictime.com/zim-vs-bd-2022-02_08_2022.jpg">In the first match, Zimbabwe won by
17 runs after posting a big total of 205 runs. While in the second match,
Bangladesh overcame their issues and made a good comeback by winning the match by
7 wickets.
Bangladesh make one forced change
alongside the other two changes in their side. The forced change is Mahmudullah
Riyad replacing injured Nurul Hasan Sohan in the main XI while the other two
changes are- Parvez Hossain Emon taking the spot of Munim Shahriar and spinner Nasum
Ahmed making the XI in the place of pacer Shoriful Islam. Mosaddek Hossain will
lead the team in the absence of Sohan.
On the other hand, Zimbabwe also
make three changes, all the changes are in the bowling department. Spinner John
Masara will make his debut in the place of another spinner Wellington Masakadza
while two pacers- Victor Nyauchi and Brad Evans replace other two pacers- Richard
Ngarava and Tanaka Chivanga in the squad.
Playing XI 
Bangladesh: Litton Das (wk), Parvez
Hossain Emon, Anamul Haque, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Mosaddek Hossain (c), Afif
Hossain, Mahmudullah Riyad, Mahedi Hasan, Nasum Ahmed, Hasan Mahmud, Mustafizur
Rahman.
Zimbabwe:&nbsp;Regis Chakabva

Bangladesh start T20I series against Zimbabwe with a defeat 

Zimbabwe have beaten Bangladesh
by 17 runs in a high-scoring match and start the three-match T20I series with a
great win on Saturday (July 30) in Harare. 
<img src="https://api.bdcrictime.com/zim-vs-bd-2022-30_07_2022.jpg">Batting first, Zimbabwe lost
their two openers- Regis Chakabva (8) and Craig Ervine (21) early in the
innings. Mustafizur Rahman and Mosaddek Hossain were the wicket-takers. But
after that, the batsmen of Zimbabwe dominated the Bangladesh bowlers throughout
the whole innings. Each n every bowler was clueless in front Wessly Madhevere
(67*), Sean Williams (33), and Sikandar Raza (65*).
The hosts took 77 runs in the
last 5 overs which showed their ultimate dominance of them and as a result,
they finished their innings at 205 runs in 20 overs losing just 3 wickets.
Chasing the huge target of 206
runs, Bangladesh were never in the chase. Opener Munim Shahriar got out in the
second over, then Litton Das (32), Anamul Haque (26), Najmul Hossain Shanto
(37) tried but were unable to catch the required run-rate of a real big score. 
In the end, stand-in captain
Nurul Hasan Sohan upraised a glimpse of hopes but couldn’t finish it and
Bangladesh stopped at 188 runs in 20 overs losing 6 wickets. Sohan was unbeaten
on 42 runs off 26 balls. Luke Jongwe was the highest wicket-taker for Zimbabwe
with 2 wickets.

Only Munim and Emon are young in the team: Mahedi 

Bangladesh T20 team all-rounder Mahedi
Hasan feels that the Tigers' T20 squad announced for the Zimbabwe tour is not
mostly young cricketers. The all-rounder disagrees with the claim that the team
formed in the absence of Shakib Al Hasan, Mahmudullah Riyad, and Mushfiqur
Rahim is said to be youth-oriented.
<img src="https://api.bdcrictime.com/mahedi-bd-team-27_07_2022.jpg">Mahedi is reluctant to call
cricketers young in terms of international cricket experience, not age.
According to him, none of the cricketers in T20 team is young except Munim
Shahriar who played 3 matches, and Parvez Hossain Emon who is waiting for his
debut. 
“No one is young in this team.
Everyone has played international cricket for 3 years, 4 years, 5 years. There
is no player in the team who has played cricket for 10 years. But there are
players who play for 6 years, 7 years, 8 years. So most are not young,” Mahedi
said. 
He added, <blockquote>“If you say young,
Munim and Emon, who are completely new. All are mature, fairly experienced.
Everyone has the ability to understand, everyone is capable.”</blockquote>
Meanwhile, the 27-year-old
cricketer is not looking to prove himself in the absence of senior cricketers. He
does not see so much fuss about the absence of seniors.
He further said, “There is
nothing to prove. There will be no senior cricketers for a while. Many will
become seniors from our batch. Shakib bhai, Tamim bhai, Riyad bhai were also
once playing as juniors. In the 2011 World Cup, Shakib Bhai led the ODI World
Cup, when he was 22 years old. From there, he has come to this stage. Now that
the young team is there, it will take time.”

Bangladesh team management wants to give proper opportunities to youngsters 

In recent times, a bunch of new
faces has got an opportunity in the Bangladesh team. T20 mainly gives
opportunities to newcomers. This time, the selection panel has arranged the T20
squad for the Zimbabwe series without senior cricketers, relying on them.
<img src="https://api.bdcrictime.com/munim-shahriar-26_07_2022.jpg">The idea of ​​creating a future
Shakib-Tamim worked behind the board's plan to arrange such a squad. At the
same time, there is an effort to overcome the poor form of T20. However, the
team director of the national team, Khaled Mahmud Sujon, wants to give time to
the new and young to perform.
He said, “Shakib, Tamim, Mushfiqur,
Riyad, Mashrafe - these are the icons of Bangladesh cricket. Mashrafe doesn’t
play now. The rest will not play for the rest of their lives. Many said that
the T20 series of the tour of Zimbabwe is a test or not. This is not a test.
Riyad-Mushfiqur is not left out of the team. We want to see what others do in
their place.”
Urging to give enough
opportunities to youngsters, he added, “Munim (Munim Shahriar) could play in only
two series, that too (in the last series) due to injury problem. It is
important to give them a chance in the whole series. After playing one match
you can't give them a break and play another match to examine. Time needs to be
given for justification.”
However, Sujon refuses to see
this change in the team as a change. He further said, “Sooner or later, we have
to form a team with newcomers. I would not say now that the transition period
has begun. I still believe seniors have the ability. However, it is also our
responsibility to highlight the juniors properly.”

First batch of Bangladesh national team to fly to Zimbabwe tonight

The first batch of the Bangladesh
team is going to leave the country for Zimbabwe on Monday (July 25) night to
play three T20Is and three ODIs. Logistic Manager Nafees Iqbal and Physio Muzadded
Alpha Sany will be included in this flight along with three cricketers. The
three cricketers are - opener Munim Shahriar, left-handed batsman Najmul
Hossain Shanto and pacer Hasan Mahmud. 
<img src="https://api.bdcrictime.com/shanto-25_07_2022.jpg">They will start their journey
from Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport to Zimbabwe on a flight at 1:40 am
Bangladesh time. After a year break, the Tigers are going to visit Zimbabwe
again.
The first T20 of the series will
begin on July 30. Opener Munim is one of the members of this youth-oriented
team in T20. Apart from this, the other two cricketers- Shanto and Hasan have
been called up in both T20 and ODI format squads.
The remaining members of the T20
team will leave for Zimbabwe on the night flight on July 26. And the ODI team
members are scheduled to leave the country on a night flight on the 29th.
Meanwhile, foreign members of the coaching staff will join the team in Zimbabwe
directly from their home countries.

Tamim's participation in T20 World Cup still in doubt

Jalal Yunus, the BCB's operations
committee chairman, is still doubtful whether Tamim Iqbal, the country's best
opener, would play in the T20 at all.
<img src="https://api.bdcrictime.com/tamim--21_04_2022.jpg">Tamim made himself unavailable
just before the T20 World Cup last year. Rumor was that head coach Russell
Domingo did not want Tamim in the World Cup squad, who was on a long break at
the time. Still, there’s uncertainty about Tamim's participation in the T20
format.
The head of the BCB's (Bangladesh
Cricket Board) operations committee met the media yesterday. He said so far the
board clearly knows nothing about Tamim’s participation in the shortest format
of the game. However, he said that the answer to this question will be known soon.
<blockquote>“No (I don't know yet). It will
be confirmed very soon whether Tamim will play in the next World Cup or not. That
cannot be said now,"</blockquote>he said.
The T20 World Cup will be held in
Australia this year. And the ODI captain of the Bangladesh team has asked for
leave from the T20 format till this World Cup. The BCB has also signed ‘yes’ in
the leave letter.
However, in the absence of Tamim,
none of those who have had the opportunity so far have been able to prove
themselves. Munim Shahriar, who played well in the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL),
was also given a chance in the Afghanistan series. However, Munim failed to
seize that opportunity.

Live: Debuts for Munim and Yasir as Bangladesh bat first

Bangladesh have introduced two debutants in the first of two-match T20I series against Afghanistan at Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium, Mirpur.<img src="https://api.bdcrictime.com/munim-and-yasir-debut-03_03_2022.jpg">Hosts Bangladesh are batting first after winning the toss.Munim Shahriar and Yasir Ali have been given T20I caps on the back of strong BPL performances lately.
