Overview
- Litton Das failed a fitness test for a hamstring problem and has been withdrawn from the remaining two ODIs to continue rehabilitation in Dhaka.
- The Bangladesh Cricket Board named left-handed opener Parvez Hossain Emon as Litton’s replacement in the touring squad for the matches in Harare.
- Bangladesh trail the three-match series 0-1 after the opening defeat and must win the second ODI to keep the series alive.
- Team physiotherapist Bayjedul Islam Khan said medical staff judged Litton not match-fit and opted for a precautionary withdrawal because of back-to-back ODIs.
- The absence of an experienced top-order batter and keeper deepens Bangladesh’s selection and workload concerns ahead of upcoming tours to Australia, South Africa and India.
