DHAKA: Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) announced a 15-member squad for the upcoming Asia Cup 2022, scheduled to commence on August 27 in United Arab Emirates (UAE).

Following Shakib Al Hasan’s appointment as the new T20I captain, the BCB has also revealed their squad for the forthcoming Asian event.

Right-handed middle-order batter Sabbir Rahman made his way back into the national contingent after almost three years of absence.

Pakistan and India have already announced their squads for the continental event, while Afghanistan and Sri Lanka are yet to name their contingent.
