Bangladesh Recall Litton Das For T20Is Against West Indies

Bangladesh's T20I captain Litton Das has returned to lead the squad for the first two T20 Internationals against West Indies after recovering from a side strain that sidelined him during the Asia Cup 2025 and subsequent series. The Bangladesh Cricket Board announced a largely unchanged squad for the matches scheduled in Chattogram on October 27 and 29, with Mohammad Saifuddin and Soumya Sarkar omitted despite Saifuddin's recent strong bowling performance and Sarkar's recent ODI form. The core team that delivered recent bilateral series wins remains intact, featuring key batsmen like Saif Hassan and Parvez Hossain Emon, and a trusted bowling lineup including Mustafizur Rahman and Mahedi Hasan. Litton Das's return is seen as a positive boost, with challenges ahead to maintain the team's balance and momentum after a successful series led by stand-in captain Jaker Ali. The third T20I squad will be announced later, and all matches will be held at the Bir Shrestha Shaheed Flight Lieutenant Motiur Rahman Stadium in Chattogram. Mehidy Hasan Miraz continues to be excluded from the T20I squad despite his ODI captaincy role.
