The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has included former Test skippers Mushfiqur Rahim and Mominul Haque for one of the four-day matches against Pakistan Shaheens in preparation for the two-match Test series against their senior men's side, reports Cricbuzz.
Bangladesh will play two four-day games and three one-day matches against Pakistan Shaheens between August 10-27 in Islamabad. The first four-day match is scheduled from August 10-13 whereas the opening Test between the two senior men's sides kicks off on August 21 in Rawalpindi.
"Mushfiqur and Mominul requested us to include them in the first four-day game against Pakistan Shaheens. We feel the matches would be good preparation for some of the cricketers likely to represent us in the upcoming Test series against Pakistan," Abdur Razzak, member of the national selection panel, told Cricbuzz on Tuesday.
Seven Test cricketers from the last series against Sri Lanka have been picked for the four-day match, among those being Shahadat Hossain, Zakir Hasan, Mahmudul Hasan, Nayeem Hasan and Hasan Mahmud.
