Bangladesh have named a 15-member squad led by Nigar Sultana Joty. Fargana Hoque has been left out of the ODI series. She had scores of 0, 7 and 5 in the three ODIs. Dilara Akter has come in place of Fargana, while Fariha Trisna and Shorifa Khatun have replaced Disha Biswas and Nishita Akter.
For Australia, a 15-player group under Alyssa Healy’s leadership will have the opportunity to fine-tune their combinations ahead of the T20 World Cup scheduled to take place in Bangladesh in September and October.
Australia have recalled Sophie Molineux after she healed from a foot stress fracture and returned to the side in the one-off Test against South Africa in Perth. She starred for the tourists in the second ODI against Bangladesh, picking up a match-winning 3-10. Tayla Vlaeminck is also included and in line to play her first international match since the start of 2022, following a horrid run with injury. She was a part of the ODI series but didn’t get a game.
