The left-arm pacer, who opted out from West Indies ODIs citing family reasons, announced the news on social media.

This week, what Yashasvi Jaiswal did at Perth and what the Bangladesh batters failed to do in Antigua could be enough to realise why the two countries are on opposite sides of the spectrum in Test cricket.

A field altercation between players from both teams prompted an investigation by the CCDM Technical Committee.

Bangladesh premier all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan is not sweating over when he could next appear for the Tigers at the moment, mentioning that he is now focusing on the upcoming Abu Dhabi T10 tournament, which is set to begin today.

Bangladesh cricket is set to get a glimpse of a new era in Tests when they take on hosts West Indies in the first of the two World Test Championship (WTC) fixtures from November 22 in Antigua.

Bangladesh ended on 253 for seven after being asked to bat by the West Indies Select XI on the opening day, receiving enough of an indication of the difficulty of playing in the West Indies.

Bangladesh’s batting was once again in the limelight due to the approach taken by the whole unit in the just-concluded series against Afghanistan. The Tigers were missing a few key players in one match or another during the three-match ODI series, but overall it provided a chance to refresh the approach.

Bangladesh batters have an abundance of tricks in their basket to surprise the audience.

David Hemp has been Bangladesh's batting coach for the past eight months, with 14 months remaining on his contract, but now faces criticism after recent batting failures against India and South Africa.

Bangladesh cricket is unparalleled in terms of one thing -- creating its own mess and then bemoaning the untidiness.

Coaches, captains and selectors often say that having all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan in the side helps with the combination. So, when Shakib was unable to take part in the first Test, the think tank failed to come up with the right decisions.

Marshall struck 127 off 199 balls -- his 25th first-class ton -- while Aich made a 250-ball 122 on way to his maiden first-class hundred to help Dhaka Metro declare their first innings at 408-5, having resumed at 102-1.

In the format, the Tigers last faced India during the T20 World Cup in June, losing by 50 runs, and have not played a match since the tournament. The two sides have faced off in 14 contests, with India winning 13 times.

There are some positive signs and a few ill omens for Bangladesh ahead of their second and final Test against hosts India, beginning tomorrow in Kanpur.

Bangladesh cricket team arrived in Chennai on Sunday evening ahead of their first Test of the two-match Test series against India at the Chidambaram Stadium. 

Bangladesh cricket team head coach Chandika Hathurusingha is set to arrive in Dhaka tonight at 11:30 PM ahead of the team’s upcoming tour of India.

Bangladesh batting coach David Hemp said that premier all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan had told him during the Pakistan series this month that the eye issue that has been of concern to the cricketer as of late is no longer ‘a problem at the moment’.

“Actually, Shakib’s [Al Hasan] batting, he is not in rhythm,” Bangladesh selector Hannan Sarkar said at the press conference in Mirpur after announcing a 16-member squad for the upcoming India Tests this month.

Asif Mahmud Shojib Bhuyain, adviser to the ministry of youth and sports, hailed the players for bringing success at a difficult time
