Tributes poured in on Sunday for former cricketer Salim Durani, a hero of India's maiden series victory over England, who has died at the age of 88.
Spin coach Rangana Herath is conducting a four-day spin camp with 32 spinners in order to strengthen the spin-bowling pipeline. It became apparent that there was a lack of spinners around the periphery of the national team when Bangladesh played the recent Dhaka Test against Sri Lanka with four front-line bowlers despite Shakib Al Hasan being there. Mosaddek Hossain came in as a batter who can bowl and the burden of majority of the overs fell on Taijul Islam and Shakib.
Ace all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan's availability before a series becomes a hot topic of discussion before every series. There are whisperings that Shakib could opt out of one of the formats in the upcoming series against West Indies.
New Zealand cricket great Sir Richard Hadlee said Bangladesh should get enough opportunity to play Test cricket against top teams like Australia, England and South Africa.
Shakib Al Hasan regains the number one spot in the Reliance ICC Player Rankings for ODI All-rounders after inspiring Bangladesh to its first bi-lateral series victory over India.
