The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has announced the squad for the T20 International series in Zimbabwe on Wednesday, leaving out the captain Litton Das.
Vice-captain Towhid Hridoy will continue to lead the side in absence of Litton Das.
Taskin Ahmed and Shamim Patwari are other two cricketers to be left out from the Bangladesh's previous T20 series against Australia. Bangladesh lost that series 3-0.
Yasir Ali Chowhdury Rabbi, Mohammad Saifuddin and Mosaddek Hossain Saikat were recalled to the T20 side, replacing the trio.
Yasir was brought back into the side for his big-hitting prowess while Mosaddek's ODI from against Australia prompted the selectors to consider him in T20 format.
Queens Sports Club, Bulawayo will host the three-match T20 series with the first match scheduled at July 15. The second and third match is on July 17 and 19 respectively.
