Dhaka, Nov 26: After a forgettable World Cup campaign, Bangladesh head coach Chandika Hathurusingha said on Sunday (November 26) that his team was looking to turn over a new leaf with the two-match Test series against New Zealand.
Both Bangladesh and New Zealand will start their campaigns in the third cycle of the ICC Test Championship through the series that will see Tests played at Sylhet and Dhaka.With regular captain Shakib Al Hasan and fast bowlers Ebadot Hossain and Taskin Ahmed missing through injuries and senior players Tamim Iqbal and Litton Das unavailable for personal reasons, the Nazmul Hossain-led side will have a lot of fresh faces.
“This is almost like a new-look Bangladesh team for various reasons, not by design. Sometimes it’s injuries. So, I think we are ready as we can be and I’m looking forward to this Test series,” Hathurusingha told reporters at the SICS, two days out from the game. (Agencies)
