Bangladesh Recall Al-Amin for Zimbabwe ODIs

Dhaka: Bangladesh on Sunday recalled controversial pace bowler Al-Amin Hossain to their 14-man squad for two one-day internationals against Zimbabwe starting next week in Dhaka.

Al-Amin has not played any matches for Bangladesh since he was kicked out of the World Cup in Australia and New Zealand earlier this year for breaking a team curfew.

The 25-year-old replaced paceman Rubel Hossain, who was ruled out of the upcoming series with a calf injury.

Zimbabwe arrive on Monday to play three ODIs and two Twenty20 internationals in a tour originally scheduled for January, 2016.

Bangladesh brought the series forward after Australia suspended their two-Test series last month, citing security fears.

Paceman Kamrul Islam is the only uncapped player in the squad, and replaces fast bowler Taskin Ahmed who was deemed unfit to play.

Taskin missed the third one-day international against India in June and the subsequent three-match ODI series against South Africa in July.

The three ODIs will be held in Dhaka's Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium on November 7, 9 and 11 and the two T20Is on November 13 and 15.

Bangladesh squad for the first two ODIs: Mashrafe Mortaza (capt) Tamim Iqbal, Liton Das (wk), Soumya Sarkar, Shakib Al Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim (wk), Mahmudullah Riyad, Sabbir Rahman, Nasir Hossain, Arafat Sunny, Jubair Hossain, Mustafizur Rahman, Al-Amin Hossain, Kamrul Islam.
