DHAKA: Bangladesh on Friday named Liton Das captain for the remainder of its One-Day International series against Afghanistan, following this week’s shock resignation of veteran opener Tamim Iqbal. Liton, who led Bangladesh to a record 546-run win in the one-off Test match against Afghanistan in June, said the team was focused on the future as it seeks to level the series on Saturday.
“It is difficult to say whether we will miss him. If I am injured today, the team will not miss me,” Liton told reporters.
“Going forward, newcomers will keep coming. Someday we will also go,” he added. “Since he is not there, we should not talk much about that topic.” Agencies
