Bangladesh Cricket Board announces 14-member squad for the two-match T20 series against South Africa due on July 5 and 7.

South Africa will face Bangladesh in two T20Is, three ODIs and two Tests during their month-long tour.

Painstakingly detailed preparation, a dynamic leader and a team infused with “No-Fear” attitude – probably the three elements responsible for Bangladesh cricket team’s most successful year in international cricket.

Having don the test cap nearly two years ago against Australia, Harbhajan Singh has a chance to revive his test career when Bangladesh face India on June 10 at Fatullah.

Coming lower down the order, Sabbir has the freedom to blast away from ball one. He can also play watchfully when wickets fall in a heap, something he showed many times in domestic cricket.

Mercurial, brilliant, aggressive, dominant, vulnerable, frustrating and unfortunately for Pakistan an underachiever, it is safe to say cricket never has and never will witness another Shahid Afridi.

Bangladesh and Pakistan met on any cricket field for the first time in 1986 when they played in the John Player Gold Leaf Trophy, which later took the name ‘Asia Cup’, at Moratuwa, Sri Lanka. In the multilateral one day international (ODI) match, Pakistan beat Bangladesh by 7 wickets.

The five most memorable encounters between Bangladesh-Pakistan.

Pakistan will tour Bangladesh in April for a full series involving all three formats with the Pakistan government giving the board the green signal
