Bangladesh will face Lanka The match will start in Bangladesh at 5:30 pm. Sri Lanka, a known opponent of Tigers Sangakkara-Jayawardene may not be able to match the Sri Lankans next time, but there are a number of stars in this team who can make themselves the fate of the match. So there is no chance to take them lightly. Again the first match of the tournament. So, without any test, Bangladesh will play in the strong team.

Liton Das can be seen with Tamim Iqbal in the opening. One-day squad for the West Indies series, but a match was not played. Liton, who played in three matches, played a great role in T20 after Laxman failed to complete the run. Bijoy is not in the Asia Cup squad due to that failure. As a result, Lyton's openness is a sure sign.

Then three automatic selections in three numbers, Shakib Al Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim and Mahmudullah Riyad as usual. Mosaddek Hossain Saikat or Ariful Haque may be seen on the number. Mohammed Mithun can be in seventh place in the squad for Sabbir.

As a specialist spinner, any one can be seen in Mehdi Hasan Miraj and Nazmul Islam Apur. Again a little batsman can play both. Miraz could play as a batting all-rounder in that case. There are more likely to be Rubel Hossain with Mashrafe and Mustafiz when three pacers play.

 Bangladesh XI (probable):

1. Tamim Iqbal

2. Liton Das

3. Shakib Al Hasan

4. Mushfiqur Rahim (Wicket-keeper)

5. Mahmudullah Riyadh

6. Mosaddek Hossain Saikat / Ariful Haque

7. Mohammed Mithun

8. Mehedi Hasan Miraj / Nazmul Islam Apu

9. Mashrafe Bin Mortaza (capt)

10. Rubel Hossain

11. Mustafizur Rahman
