Bangladesh opener Liton Das has joined his team before the Super 4 round in Asia Cup.
Earlier he was included into the team but due to the viral fever he had to step down and Anamul Haque was named as his replacement.
He is the most consistent Bangladesh player from the starting of 2022 and scored the most number of runs for his team. His addition will definitely boost the team and will give a proper start during the innings for the Asia Cup.
Due to recent injuries occurring during the Asia Cup therefore he was added to the team, so that no further injury happens. Both Mehidy Hasan Miraz and Najmul Hossain Shanto were seen in trouble during the match against Afghanistan. Mustafizur Rahman also got injured during the match against Sri Lanka and he didn’t play against Afghanistan.
Bangladesh Chief selector, Minhajul Abedin said, “The Asia Cup squad has a few injury concerns and the team management felt the need for an additional player going on to the Super Four. We have received the BCB medical teams clearance regarding Liton’s health and have decided to send him to Pakistan.”
Bangladesh is with Sri Lanka and Afghanistan in Group B, Bengal tigers play all the matches in the group only the match between Afghanistan and Sri Lanka after that it will be decided which two will move forward to the Super 4. Both Bangladesh and Sri Lanka have 2 points each whereas Afghanistan is still to open their account.
