Predicted Bangladesh Squad for ODI World Cup 2023
These 15 players could possibly make it to Bangladesh's squad for the 2023 World Cup to be held in India later this year.
10. Shoriful Islam
Shoriful Islam grabbed a lot of eyeballs during the U-19 World Cup 2020. The lanky bowler emerged as a star performer for the Bangladesh U-19 squad with his sensational bowling numbers. Claiming nine wickets at an economy of 3.64, he helped his team to lift the prestigious trophy for the first time.
Witnessing his potential, the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) selectors gave him a chance to represent the senior Bangladesh team next year. In May 2021, Sri Lanka toured Bangladesh for a three-match ODI competition and the youngster got inducted into Bangladesh’s playing XI for the second ODI.
Thus far, the 21-year-old has grabbed 20 scalps in 16 appearances at an economy of 5.57. Since his debut, Shoriful has consistently received support from the team management despite facing ups and downs. In this World Cup, the talented pacer might get a chance to reinforce his team with his medium-fast bowling.
