Dhaka, October 22: Seasoned bowlers Abdur Razzak and Shahadat Hossain were today included in a 14-man Bangladesh squad to face Zimbabwe in a one-day series from next week.
Left-arm spinner Razzak and seamer Shahadat Hossain were declared fit after missing the previous series in Zimbabwe in August which Bangladesh won 4-1.
Shakib Al Hasan, 22, named international player of the year by Wisden magazine this month, will continue to lead Bangladesh in the absence of the injured Mashrafe Mortaza.
Mortaza, who underwent surgery on both knees in Australia in August, has been ruled out of cricket until November 15.
The first three matches against Zimbabwe will be played in Dhaka on October 27, 29 and 31, before the teams travel to Chittagong for the last two games on November 3 and 5.
