Litton remains in the Test team

Litton remains in the Test team even though the BCB head recommends taking a break.

President of the Bangladesh Cricket Board Nazmul Hasan stated on Tuesday that Litton Das, who is now out of form, need to be rested for the upcoming second Test match against Sri Lanka, which is set to begin on March 30 at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium.

But the BCB national selection panel retained Litonthe in the 15-man roster. They unveiled it just a few hours after Nazmul made the request at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium.

Despite falling at 37-4 with only 15 minutes remaining in the third day’s play, Litton Das, who is going through a difficult time, stole the show in the second innings by electing to play across the line and give away his wicket by racing down the wicket to pacer Vishwa Fernando in the first ball.

“There’s no cause for optimism about it. It doesn’t matter if they win or lose; what matters is how they perform. At the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium Nazmul told reporters, “Their mindset, attitude, or shot selection was abominable.”

It seemed as though they weren’t willing to adopt this format or that there was a problem. It does not suit cricket for these sorts of shot selection or thinking. “They need to know anything because they are not infants who have been dropped into the ground unexpectedly,” he remarked.

They are all aware of it. That pained us, which is why I came here and am here with everyone,” he said.

“After seeing his performance from the most recent World Cup, we saw a problem. His exclusion from ODIs was because to this. We rely on him as a hitter, and he has shown himself, not that he is incapable of playing. He plays with such beauty. However, there has been an issue, and we have even removed him from the ODI team. That is the largest signal that is possible. Thus, a dilemma exists,” he stated.

“We decided that Liton needed a break, so we sent him on one. It is important to note his impressive Test statistics since he bats and scores runs while playing well. We are aware that he needs a break. It provided him that break rather than dropping him. Yet he was present for some reason.

The main issue was that, given everything, they included Liton Das even if Shakib, Mushfiqur, and Shakib weren’t there. We’ll see about the rest of it now. The main selector is present as well, and we will talk about it. “Let us converse and find out their thoughts,” he continued.
