Bangladesh has selected Mohammad Saifuddin and Mahidul Islam Ankon for the first two T20Is of the upcoming three-match series against Ireland, making two changes from the squad that played against the West Indies last month.<\/p>\n

Saifuddin returns to the shortest format after participating in the Afghanistan T20Is in Sharjah, where Bangladesh secured a 3-0 series sweep. Ankon, who has played one Test and three ODIs and remains uncapped in T20Is, now has an opportunity to establish himself in Bangladesh\u2019s top order.<\/p>\n

Taskin Ahmed and Shamim Hossain were excluded due to commitments in the Abu Dhabi T10 league, according to chief selector Gazi Ashraf Hossain.<\/p>\n

\u201cTaskin has an NOC, so he is not available to us currently,” Hossain said. \u201cWe know that he will play for Bangladesh whenever we ask him to, but we are well aware of the plans.”<\/p>\n

He added that Shamim Hossain was omitted to try out new options at the top of the order. \u201cWe haven\u2019t considered Shamim Hossain for the first two T20Is. We have picked Mahidul Islam so that we can try someone in the top four.”<\/p>\n

The entire three-match series will be played in Chattogram on November 27, 29 and December 2, as Bangladesh continues to fine-tune their T20I setup ahead of a busy 2025 calendar.<\/p>\n

Bangladesh squad for Ireland T20Is:<\/strong> Litton Das (capt), Saif Hassan (vice-capt), Tanzid Hasan, Parvez Hossain Emon, Tawhid Hridoy, Jaker Ali, Nurul Hasan, Mahidul Islam Ankon, Mahedi Hasan, Rishad Hossain, Nasum Ahmed, Mustafizur Rahman, Tanzim Hasan Sakib, Shoriful Islam, Mohammad Saifuddin.<\/p>\n
