BCB has picked former 'rebel-players'

BCB has picked former 'rebel-players' Shahriar Nafees, Aftab Ahmed, Alok Kapali, and Dhiman Ghosh, once banned from national play for joining the lucrative but unauthorised ICL, for an upcoming tri-nation series.

It marks BCB's first selection of the top cricketers since the ban was lifted following their departure from the rebel Indian Cricket League.

They are included in a provisional 26-member squad for the series beginning on January 4 in Dhaka, where Bangladesh will square off against India and Sri Lanka.
