Mominul, Soumya to captain A team in Ireland tour
Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) today announced the itinerary for Bangladesh A team's tour of Ireland and Mominul Haque and Soumya Sarkar were chosen to captain the one-day and T20 sides respectively.
Soumya, who featured in the just concluded one-day series at home, failed to make any impact during his three appearances as Bangladesh A managed to tie the three-match series 1-1 following rain-abandoned third game. He will lead the T20 side in the Ireland tour.
Mominul, mainly known for his Test match exploits haven't been involved with ODIs for the Tigers since 2015. His inclusion into the A team could signal a change in what BCB thinks Mominul could contribute in the shorter form of the game.
Pacer Taskin Ahmed has also been included in the squad for the tour. Bangladesh team will reach Dublin on July 28 and the five-match one-day series will begin on August 1. The three-match T20 series will commence on August 13.
