Buttler leads Eng squads for Bangladesh tour

There were a lot of speculations regarding probable first-team omissions due to scheduling conflicts and players' lucrative franchise commitments but England boasted their depth on Thursday when they announced strong squads, led by Jos Buttler, for their upcoming white-ball tour of Bangladesh.

England will play three ODIs and as many T20Is in Bangladesh from March 1 to 14.

For all latest news, follow The Daily Star's Google News channel.

England picked teenage leg-spinner Rehan Ahmed in their white-ball squads for the first time. The 18-year-old Leicestershire bowler became England's youngest men's Test cricketer against Pakistan in Karachi in December and marked his debut in style with a five-wicket haul.

Rehan had played just three first-class matches before making his Test bow, but has more experience in white-ball cricket, having appeared regularly for his county side.

Uncapped Somerset batter Tom Abell, who is set to captain the England Lions in the upcoming ODI series in Sri Lanka, was also included in both squads.

Pacer Saqib Mahmood, who was named in the ODI squad, made his return to the England squad for the first time since suffering a stress fracture of the back in May last year.

Alex Hales was one of the major omissions as he opted to forgo the tour to honour his lucrative contract in the Pakistan Super League, while Liam Livingstone and Johnny Bairstow remained unpicked due to injury.

Members of the Test side like Joe Root, and Harry Brook were not included as they would conclude their Test duties in New Zealand on February 28 but Ben Duckett and Will Jacks are set to make the tour having been selected for the T20I side.
