Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) announced their women’s squad for the next month’s Women’s Asia Cup to be held in Bangkok, Thailand from November 27.

All-rounder Salma Khatun, who was dropped out of the last Ireland tour because of her shoulder injury, returned to the fold again.  Sanjida Islam and Lata Mondal, who were in the main squad during the last Ireland tour in September, failed to make room  in the 15-member Asia Cup squad. But the board kept the duo as stand-by players alongside Shaila Sharmin, Morsheda Khatun and Sharmin Akter Supta.

The Tigress have been passing a hectic schedule under the new head coach, David Capel as they are doing practice at both morning and evening session at the BCB-National Cricket Academy (NCA) ground.
