Another chance for Riyan Parag
Riyan Parag has played six T20s since July but has been unable to replicate the brilliant form he displayed in IPL 2024. The Bangladesh series presents him with another opportunity to make a strong impact.
Toss-up between Varun Chakaravarthy and Ravi Bishnoi
The series will also mark the return of mystery spinner Varun Chakaravarthy, whose international career came to an abrupt halt after the disappointing 2021 T20 World Cup in the UAE. The other specialist spinner in the squad is Ravi Bishnoi, creating a competitive scenario between the two.
Bangladesh team news
It is almost impossible to fill the shoes of a player like Shakib Al Hasan, but Bangladesh must now plan for life without their champion all-rounder. Shakib recently announced his retirement from Tests and T20s, leaving a significant void in the team.
Although Bangladesh were outplayed in the preceding Test series, the majority of their T20 players were not part of those matches, so they will not carry any baggage into the white-ball leg of the tour.
Off-spinner Mehidy Hasan Miraz has been recalled to the squad after a 14-month absence. Veteran batter Mahmud Ullah stands at a crossroads in his career, and a productive series against the world champions might provide him with the motivation to continue.
