Three wicket-keepers to play for the Tigers


The tri-nation series involving Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe will start from next week in Bangladesh. The upcoming competition will be followed by a Test and a T20I series against Sri Lanka.
BCB have announced a 16-men squad ahead of the tri-nation series. Anamaul Haque Bijoy has been named in the squad and will be playing for the national side after 3 years.
Bijoy has been selected for performing well in the domestic leagues. The keeper-batsman has not played for the Tigers since his exit due to injury during the ICC World Cup in 2015.

Apart from Mushfiq and Bijoy, Mohammad Mithun is also in the squad. Although Mithun had played 2 ODIs for the Red & Green, his poor performance in the T20Is kept him outside the team. The 27-year-old played 12 T20Is with a below-par average of 10.62.
The inclusion of three wicket-keepers in the squad has led to questions of who will be standing behind the stumps during the game.
Minhajul Abedin has reportedly confirmed that Mushfiq will be keeping the wickets. He said, "Mushfiq will be the wicket-keeper. Bijoy or Mithun will also keep the wicket if required. But the batting is very crucial. Scoring runs here will be important."
