Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) made further changes to the squad for the third and final ODI against New Zealand at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium on Tuesday as they retained pacer Khaled Ahmed following the second ODI and roped in out-of-form Afif Hossain.

Pacer Taskin Ahmed, who was initially added to the squad for the third ODI after being rested for the first two, was left out due to illness. This prompted the BCB to bring back Khaled Ahmed, who picked up three wickets for 60 runs in the second match which was his ODI debut.. 

Afif was dropped following a horrid run with the bat in the Asia cup and played his last match against Pakistan in the Super Four stage of the tournament where he scored an 11-ball12. 

BCB selector Habibul Bashar Sumon told The Daily Star that Afif was included as cover for Mehedi Hasan Mairaz, who felt discomfort on his hamstring following Monday's practice session. 

SQUAD: Najmul Hossain Shanto (Captain), Tanzid Hasan Tamim, Zakir Hasan, Anamul Haque Bijoy, Tawhid Hridoy, Mahmudullah Riyad, Mushfiqur Rahim, Mehidy Hassan Miraz, Shak Mahedi Hasan, Nasum Ahmed, Shoriful Islam, Hasan Mahmud, Rishad Hossain, Syed Khaled Ahmed, Afif Hossain.

ভোটের অধিকার আদায়ে জনগণকে রাস্তায় নামতে হবে: ফখরুল

‘যুবকরা এখনো জানে না ভোট কী। আমাদের আওয়ামী লীগের ভাইরা ভোটটা দিয়েছেন, বলে দিয়েছেন—তোরা আসিবার দরকার নাই, মুই দিয়ে দিনু। স্লোগান ছিল—আমার ভোট আমি দিব, তোমার ভোটও আমি দিব।’
