England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB), on Thursday, introduced their males’s T20I and ODI squads for the forthcoming tour of Bangladesh, beginning March 1.
Fast bowling duo of Mark Wood and Saqib Mehmood have made their comeback within the English outfit. Notably, Wood was rested for the recently-concluded ODI tour of South Africa, which the guests misplaced 2-1. Similarly, Saqib has been out of the group since May final 12 months with a stress fracture.
Further, Somerset captain Tom Abell and Leicestershire leg-spinner Rehan Ahmed have been named each ODI and T20I squads. This goes to be Abell’s first time with a full England squad, whereas Rehan made his England debut within the Karachi Test in opposition to Pakistan and even picked a seven-wicket haul.
