Among the notable inclusions is the uncapped player Johnathan Campbell, who earns his maiden call-up to the national team.
Campbell’s selection reflects Zimbabwe Cricket’s commitment to nurturing young talent and providing opportunities for emerging cricketers to shine on the global platform.
Additionally, Tadiwanashe Marumani and Faraz Akram make their return to the squad, bringing their experience and skills to bolster Zimbabwe’s lineup.
Their recall underscores the selectors’ confidence in their abilities to contribute positively to the team’s success.
The remainder of the squad comprises players who featured in Zimbabwe’s previous T20I series against Sri Lanka earlier in January.
These seasoned campaigners bring a wealth of experience and leadership to the team, providing stability and depth across all departments.
In the absence of a new head coach, Stuart Matsikenyeri will assume the role of interim coach for Zimbabwe’s campaign against Bangladesh.
Matsikenyeri’s familiarity with the team and his coaching acumen make him a fitting choice to lead Zimbabwe’s charge in the upcoming series.
With preparations underway and the squad finalised, Zimbabwe Cricket is optimistic about its prospects in Bangladesh.
The tour presents an opportunity for the team to test its mettle against strong opposition and showcase its talent and potential on the international stage.
As the players gear up for the challenge ahead, Zimbabwe Cricket remains committed to fostering a culture of excellence and resilience, both on and off the field.
