Scorecard
Another impressive innings from Chesney Hughes raised Derbyshire’s hopes of
avoiding the follow-on before England all-rounder Luke Wright landed two late
blows at Derby.The 19-year-old Anguillan passed 50 for the fourth time in only his fourth
County Championship Division Two match but was out for 62 to the first ball back
after a break for bad light and rain.Wright then bowled 20-year-old Dan Redfern for 44 and at the close, Derbyshire
were 244 for 6, trailing by 185, in reply to Sussex’s 429. Skipper Chris Rogers had continued his prolific form with 75 before he was one of two victims for England spinner Monty Panesar who had figures of 2 for 42 from 17 overs.Robin Martin-Jenkins followed his century by removing Garry Park but the Sussex
bowling was inconsistent on a day when conditions suggested it would be awkward
for batting. Cloud cover and moisture in the atmosphere should have favoured the seamers but
James Anyon struggled with his line and there were too many loose balls for the
batsmen to put away.Sussex had put themselves in a strong position with the last four wickets
adding 303 to leave Derbyshire needing 280 to avoid the prospect of being asked
to follow-on.Yasir Arafat and Anyon put on 64 for the ninth wicket before Anyon swept the
left arm spin of Robin Peterson into the hands of deep midwicket and a direct
hit from point ran out Panesar.Arafat was unbeaten on 34 and he gave his side the perfect start by striking
with the fifth ball of the Derbyshire innings when he trapped Wayne Madsen lbw
playing half forward. But the prize wicket of Rogers fell from the visitors’ grasp when the
Australian was dropped on 15 in Anyon’s second over by wicketkeeper Ben Brown.Rogers had already started to head for the pavilion after he saw Brown take
the edge diving to his left but the ball appeared to slip from his glove when he
hit the ground. The Derbyshire captain made the most of his escape and greeted Panesar by
driving his first two balls to the ropes as he and Park rebuilt the innings.They had added 96 when Park reached at a delivery from Martin-Jenkins which he
should have left alone and was well caught low down at a wide second slip by Ed
Joyce.Greg Smith made only two before he sent a return catch to Panesar trying to
work the ball through midwicket and when Rogers jabbed into the hands of short
leg, Derbyshire were 127 for 4. But Hughes again played with composure and with Redfern was steering Derbyshire towards their target before Wright dismissed them both in the space
of three overs.Hughes, who had pulled Wright for six, was lbw playing slightly across the
line to end a stand of 98 and Redfern was bowled playing back to leave
Derbyshire still 36 short of saving the follow-on.

England spinner chooses to head north for new competition instead of stick with home county

ESPNcricinfo staff23-Sep-2024Durham have strengthened their women’s squad ahead of next year’s launch of the new county competition, by signing the England offspinning allrounder, Mady Villiers, on a three-year deal.Villiers has represented England on 20 occasions, most recently on their tour of Ireland where her death-over bowling all but snatched two victories from the jaws of defeat.In all, she has taken 221 white-ball wickets in her professional career, having already surpassed 2000 career runs with eight half-centuries, and she’s been an ever-present for Oval Invincibles in the Women’s Hundred, helping the side to claim consecutive titles in 2021 and 2022.Her move to Durham is a coup for the club, which is due to take over from the Headingley-based Northern Diamonds to become the North-East regional representatives in women’s domestic cricket, ahead of Yorkshire’s accession to Tier 1 in 2026.A product of the Essex pathway, Villiers has, however, opted against staying with her home county, who will also have Tier 1 status from 2025 as they take over from Sunrisers, who last week claimed victory in the final of the Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy. She will now be playing under the captaincy of her England team-mate, Hollie Armitage.”I’m really excited to be joining Durham ahead of the 2025 season,” Villiers said. “I was so impressed with the vision that the club and coaching staff have, and I knew it was definitely something that I wanted to be a part of.”It’s an incredibly talented group of players and I have always loved playing with Hollie as captain, so I’m confident making the move up north is the right one for me.”Having played in Essex for my whole career it was going to take a lot for me to leave, and I think that speaks volumes on how I feel about Durham and the potential we have as a collective. I can’t wait to get going and see where this team can go over the next few years.”Director of Cricket, Marcus North said: “We are thrilled to announce Mady has agreed to join Durham on a three-year deal. Our squad is coming together nicely and to be able to recruit an England international in Mady is huge for us and the region.”Mady has shown what a top performer she has been domesticity for several years for Sunrisers and the Oval Invincibles and we are now excited for her journey to continue with us in the North East.”Hopefully her move to Durham will see her thrive in the county as she looks to add more England caps to her name and further excel with bat and ball.”

Colin Ackermann, Rishi Patel, Rehan Ahmed give valiant chase but fall just short

ECB Reporters Network01-Jun-2023 Derbyshire 189 for 5 (Madsen 109*) beat Leicestershire 187 for 5 (Ackermann 59*) by two runsA career-best unbeaten 109 by veteran campaigner Wayne Madsen set up Derby Falcons for a first win of the Vitality Blast season over East Midlands neighbours Leicester Foxes, who ran them close but ultimately fell three runs short of their target.The 39-year-old’s brilliant 61-ball innings, which contained 12 fours and four sixes, was his third hundred in the T20 format and his second in consecutive seasons after he made 100 not out against Durham last season.It helped the Falcons post 189 for five after being put in, Tom Wood making 37 from 24 balls and Brooke Guest 25 from 20, spinners Rehan Ahmed (2 for 20), Callum Parkinson (2 for 36) and Colin Ackermann (1 for 16) sharing the wickets for the Foxes.The Foxes, who have lost all of their opening four matches, put up a decent fight in the circumstances, Colin Ackermann (59 not out) and Ahmed (28) scoring 58 off the last 31 balls after Rishi Patel’s 44 but it wasn’t quite enough.Left-arm spinner Parkinson dismissed both openers in his first two overs, Luis Reece leg before and Haider Ali bowled, both attempting to sweep, yet it was the Falcons, at 52 for two, who came out of the powerplay on top after being put in, despite the return to the Foxes attack of Naveen ul-Haq after his successful stint in the Indian Premier League.Madsen’s timing was immaculate as he dispatched Ahmed, Will Davis and Parkinson in turn for sixes out of the middle of the bat before cleverly reverse-sweeping Ahmed for four to bring up a 29-ball half-century – his fourth in as many innings this season – as the Falcons reached halfway at 96 for two.Wood, after his uncertain start, was beginning to find his range when the Foxes at last managed to stem the flow, Wood reaching for one outside off stump and unable to control his shot, Sol Budinger pouching the catch at deep point.That ended a 95-run partnership for the third wicket, after which the Falcons suffered a wobble as Ahmed struck twice in the space of five deliveries, having Leus Du Plooy caught behind down the legside for a second-ball duck before Anuj Dal fell leg before to the googly, 117 for two replaced by 120 for five on the scoreboard.None of his colleagues could match Ahmed’s economy on a night when the Foxes were sloppy in the field. Naveen conceded 23 off his final two overs as the last four of the innings saw the Falcons’ total swell by 50 runs, Madsen lifting Davis over deep midwicket for his fourth six before driving Naveen through the covers to reach his hundred from 56 balls.After a slow start to their reply in which Budinger lobbed tamely to mid-on as Zak Chappell claimed a wicket against his former county, the Foxes found some momentum in the second half of the powerplay to be 48 for one as Patel and Nick Welch began to find regular boundaries.They lost Welch when the opener clipped a ball from left-armer into the hands of deep square leg and Patel had an escape on 33 when Zaman Khan spilled a chance on the legside off Du Plooy, but skipper Ackermann was into his stride with two fours and a six off George Scrimshaw as the home side reached 90 for two from 10.Patel’s second six, launched over long-on off Mark Watt, and two reserve sweeps for four by Ackermann off Wood kept the scoreboard moving nicely but after Patel holed out off Watt’s left-arm aiming for another maximum the required rate was above 10. Wiaan Mulder thin edged behind off Chappell and the Foxes needed 55 from the last five overs.Lilley fell for three, slashing Scrimshaw to deep backward point, but Ahmed uppercut his first ball for six to keep the Foxes interested and after a generally tidy over from Khan stretched the target to 39 from 18 balls, the sixth-wicket pair innovated nicely and ran well between the wickets to leave the Foxes needing 14 off the last over and put the pressure on Scrimshaw, who conceded a boundary to Ahmed from his first ball but the tall seamer held his nerve to avoid conceding another and the Falcons prevailed by two runs.

The tournament will take place against steeply rising Covid cases in New Zealand

AAP25-Feb-2022Meg Lanning has labelled the ICC’s emergency World Cup rules as “interesting” but stopped short of criticising the governing body as the tournament nears.Australia face England on February 5 to begin their quest to reclaim the 50-over ODI World Cup, lost to the English five years ago.As host nation New Zealand grapples with its worst Covid-19 outbreak of the pandemic, organisers have scrambled to put in place rules that will allow the tournament to continue should players get infections.The most eye-catching is a regulation that teams can take to the field with just nine players and utilise up to two staff in fielding roles to ensure matches get played.Related

“I’ve asked our physio and media manager what their preferred fielding position was if they were to take the field,” Lanning said, only half-joking. “Hopefully it doesn’t come to that for any team. It’s an interesting way to go about it.”If that did occur I think it’d be a pretty interesting situation. Hopefully for everyone in the tournament we don’t get to that point.”New Zealand reported 12,011 community Covid-19 cases on Friday, double the previous day’s count, ahead of an expected outbreak peak during the event. The government and ICC have issued strict biosecurity rules in an attempt to shield players from catching the virus.Asked whether the tournament should have been moved from New Zealand, Lanning said she “hadn’t thought about that at all”, offering her sympathy to the hosts. The ICC have also confirmed they will look to re-schedule fixtures in the event of Covid-19 outbreaks affecting squads.”It would be a nightmare trying to organise these tournaments,” she said. “We want to get cricket in. That’s the most important thing. Teams are going to have to be very flexible and understanding of things that are happening at really short notice.”Hopefully if this or that does happen, you can have a bit of a conversation around things and discuss what the options are and I’m sure that the the ICC will be making the best decision for the World Cup and making sure the games can continue on.”

Financial pressures may persuade clubs to resume action taken at start of season

George Dobell27-Sep-2020Staff at several first-class counties are expected to be put back on furlough at the end of this week.ESPNcricinfo understands that several of those counties not involved in the knock-out stages of the T20 Blast will put a proportion of their staff – including players – back on furlough in October. This could include the Essex and Somerset teams which have been contesting the Bob Willis Trophy final at Lord’s in recent days.The government’s furlough scheme was set up to counter the financial challenges posed by the Covid-19 pandemic. It has seen the government take responsibility for paying employees, allowing businesses to survive without laying off staff. The scheme ends at the end of October.All but Lancashire and Surrey put their players on furlough at the start of the summer when it became apparent that the season would be delayed. While some counties topped up the government’s furlough amount – which was originally capped at around £2500 a month – others did not. Current legislation means the government will be expected to pay 70 percent of employees’ monthly salary up to a maximum of £2,187, with the employer required to top up another 10 percent.Other county employees, including groundstaff and administration teams, are also expected to be put back on furlough at several clubs.Teams involved in the knock-out stages of the T20 Blast will have to wait to make a claim. The quarter-finals are due to be played on October 1 with Finals Day on October 3.It is understood the players at counties due to be furloughed have not yet been notified of the intention.

Derbyshire stay on course for knock-out stages with five-wicket win

ECB Reporters Network30-Apr-2019An unbeaten 119 from Wayne Madsen steered Derbyshire to a five-wicket victory over Warwickshire to keep them on course for the knock-out stages of the Royal London One-Day Cup.Warwickshire had to win to have any chance of emerging from the North Group and half-centuries from Alex Thomson and Alex Mellor took them to a competitive 288 for 7 with Mark Watt taking 2 for 32.But Madsen was dominant and, although Thomson followed his unbeaten 68 with 3 for 57, Alex Hughes made 69 as Derbyshire won with 21 balls to spare to eliminate Warwickshire.Warwickshire had to win to stay in contention but they were struggling when they lost three wickets for 15 runs to slump to 113 for 5 in the 22nd over.Ed Pollock top-edged a return catch to Logan van Beek and Dominic Sibley edged the last ball of the first Powerplay before Luis Reece took the key wicket of Sam Hain.Hain had scored an unbeaten 161 in the previous game and looked set for another significant innings until he tried to cut Reece and was caught behind for 34 in the 17th over.With Watt’s accurate and disciplined spell accounting for Will Rhodes and Liam Banks, the innings stalled until Thomson struck the first boundary for 10 overs.He pulled Ravi Rampaul for a six and two fours in an over to give Warwickshire renewed momentum which increased when Mellor twice drove Critchley for six in an over which cost 19.Mellor top-edged a pull but Thomson and George Panayi added 58 before Henry Brookes drove van Beek for six in the last over to give Warwickshire a challenging total.Billy Godleman drove and cut Brookes for three consecutive fours but was bowled by Thomson for 40 and Reece was caught at slip when he cut the spinner onto the wicketkeeper’s thigh.Tom Lace miscued a pull at Jetan Patel’s first ball but Warwickshire’s bowling was too inconsistent to apply any sustained pressure and Madsen played with authority from the start.He drove Patel for two consecutive fours to reach 50 from 43 balls and, with Hughes, took the game away from Warwickshire.Hughes drove Thomson for six and repeated the shot in his next over before he drove Patel back over his head in the 33rd to take the target below a hundred.Patel was Warwickshire’s best hope but Madsen never allowed him to settle, driving him for six and the stand was worth 134 in 22 overs when Hughes was well caught at mid on off Thomson.Madsen completed his fifth List A 100 from 92 balls and sealed Derbyshire’s third victory with his fourth six in the 47th over.

Warner has been charged with a Level 2 offence, while de Kock has been booked under the Level 1 category

Firdose Moonda and Daniel Brettig06-Mar-2018Australia’s David Warner and South Africa’s Quinton de Kock have been charged by the ICC for their stairwell confrontation in Durban, with both players having until Wednesday to respond to the charge.Both players were charged under the catch-all ICC code of conduct clause on bringing “the game into disrepute” following the episode that marred the Kingsmead Test, but Warner faces a more serious level 2 charge while de Kock a less serious level 1 offence. The difference in levels means Warner could be banned for one Test, but the heaviest penalty de Kock faces is a fine.The matter was debated in a meeting at the hotel being shared by the two teams in Port Elizabeth on Tuesday night, with the Australian and South African team managers Gavin Dovey and Mohammed Moosajee speaking with the match referee Jeff Crowe.The incident took place as the players left the field for tea on the fourth day. CCTV footage from cameras trained on the staircase leading to the dressing rooms showed Warner being physically restrained by several team-mates as he launched a verbal attack at de Kock. South African captain Faf du Plessis emerged from the hosts’ dressing room to try and diffuse the situation. He was accompanied by Kagiso Rabada, who did not get involved. The players went into their own changerooms after a few minutes. The video was first made public by South African media outlet .South Africa’s management will meet with de Kock to discuss his options before deciding how to respond to the charge. They strongly maintain that the verbal fracas started while de Kock was batting and was led by Warner making personal affronts to de Kock. South Africa are understood to be disappointed that Warner did not receive a more serious charge; a Level 3 charge would have required an independent arbiter to hear the case.The on-field umpires – Kumar Dharmasena and S Ravi – are understood to be claiming not to have heard anything that could be considered a breach of the code. South Africa’s reaction to this is one of incredulity, and some sources told ESPNcricinfo that the view in the home camp is that the umpires are “intimidated” by Australia. After the Durban Test, du Plessis said he felt the umpires should have stepped in earlier to avoid the situation spilling over onto the stairwell, but he also admitted the chatter had got personal from both sides.The charges against Warner and de Kock were brought by the on-field umpires. “Australia vice-captain David Warner and South Africa’s Quinton de Kock have been reported for breaching the ICC code of conduct following their altercation on the fourth day of the Durban Test which was captured on CCTV,” an ICC spokesman said. “The umpires officiating in the Durban Test have reported Warner for a level 2 offence and de Kock for level 1 offence for ‘conduct that brings the game into disrepute’ following the incident in the stairwell near their dressing rooms. The teams have been given until tomorrow to respond to the charges.”The former Australia batsman Simon Katich, currently commentating in South Africa, said the ICC had the opportunity to draw a line under the sort of aggressive exchanges captured on the CCTV footage by imposing a ban. “The one thing the match referee has got the control to do is if they set a precedent, players will stop behaving like that,” Katich said on SEN radio.”At the moment it might take a one-Test ban for players to realise they can’t behave like that, and then it would put it to bed.”In the end, the team that gets affected by a player missing out on a Test match is going to be very disappointed with their fellow team-mate, and what will happen is the team-mates will start to police these issues, rather than let them happen over and over again. Let’s see what happens with the match referee and whether they’re going to be stern enough to stamp this behaviour out.”

A round-up of the sixth round of Sunfoil Series matches on January 8, 2017

ESPNcricinfo staff08-Jan-2017Cape Cobras marched to a commanding six-wicket win in Outdshoorn against Lions after they chased down the target of 237 inside 44 overs on the final day with an aggressive and unbeaten century from Wayne Parnell. He struck the game’s only century as well as contributed with the ball to take Cobras to their first win in six matches.Once Lions were dismissed for 383 on the final day, Cobras had 46 overs to chase and did so by scoring at nearly 5.50 runs per over on the back of Parnell’s 103 off 131 balls that featured seven fours and two sixes. Once their first wicket fell at the score of 74, a 125-run second-wicket partnership between Parnell and Stiaan van Zyl (64 off 65) took them to 199, before van Zyl was dismissed by Aaron Phangiso. By then, Cobras were on top and they completed the win soon after Parnell reached only his second first-class ton, and he smashed the winning runs with a four.Lions were on the backfoot in the game’s first session when they crumbled to 44 for 6 in under 23 overs after being asked to bat. Dwaine Pretorius scored 35 at No. 6, but with his dismissal, Lions soon folded for 126. Parnell broke the opening stand and collected three of the last five wickets to finish with 4 for 26.Cobras overcame Lions’ score in reply, but not without their own collapse. Opener Omphile Ramela struck a patient 75 even as the rest of the top five batsmen scored 15 runs together. After Ramela steered them till the score of 159, Aviwe Mgijima scored 73 and an unbeaten 48 off 135 from Dane Piedt helped them put on 273. Pretorius and Willem Mulder took three wickets each.Trailing by 147, Lions put on a stronger batting performance second time around, but after another collapse, as Nicky van den Bergh’s 93 helped his team recover from 48 for 4. He shared 97 runs with Pretorius (62) for the fifth wicket to nearly wipe off the deficit but was removed by Piedt. A late surge from the tailenders led by Bjorn Fortuin (72) took Lions to 383, helped by Hardus Viljoen’s 46, but it was not enough to stop Cobras.Kingsmead saw a tame draw between Dolphins and Warriors after inclement weather resulted in a curtailed second day, and a third day that had to be called off without a ball being bowled. In the 180.4 overs the match saw, Dolphins’ Vaughn van Jaarsveld, Divan van Wyk and left-arm spinner Senuran Muthusamy delivered standout performances. Warriors batsman Colin Ackermann, who scored 81 in the first innings, was their only notable show.Asked to bat, Warriors’ innings consisted of a 102-run partnership between two batting collapses. After their openers put on 47 runs, Warriors soon saw themselves at 99 for 4. Ackermann stitched a century stand for the fifth wicket with Somila Seyibokwe (54) to take Warriors past 200, but with Seyibokwe’s dismissal, a second Warriors collapse saw them all out for 231. Muthusamy accounted for Ackermann and three other lower-order wickets as he returned figures of 4 for 49.Dolphins, who finished the first day on 39 for no loss, then batted through spells of poor weather to take a comfortable lead. Van Jaarsveld struck his 15th first-class century, scoring 154 while putting together consecutive century partnerships. He added 145 runs for the second wicket with van Wyk (95) and another 116 runs with Cody Chetty. By the time van Jaarsveld – whose century earned him the Player-of-the-Match award – was dismissed in the 86th over, the Dolphins lead had gone past 100 and the teams agreed on a draw after playing 40 overs on the last day. Dolphins earned 9.22 points while Warriors got only 3.62 points from the match.In Bloemfontein, a dangerous pitch after two days of rain saw the match between Knights and Titans being abandoned without a ball being bowled.

Azhar Ali has called Pakistan’s final ODI against England a “must-win game” as the pressure on his captaincy mounts after just six months in the job

Alan Gardner19-Nov-2015Azhar Ali has called Pakistan’s final ODI against England a “must-win game” as the pressure on his captaincy mounts after just six months in the job. Pakistan have twice been beaten heavily after going 1-0 up in the series and can now only manage a tie at best.In both Abu Dhabi and Sharjah, Pakistan struggled in particular with the bat. Azhar has only managed 66 runs in three innings at the top of the order and changes to the line-up – partly enforced by the sudden retirement of Younis Khan – have not helped. With Pakistan ranked a lowly No. 8 in ODIs, some commentators at home have turned their fire on the coach, Waqar Younis, despite the team’s recent success in Tests.”It’s a must-win game for us,” Azhar said of the fourth ODI in Dubai. “It won’t be easy because England played well in the last two games and won, but we all realise the importance of this game, we will do our hardest work to win the game and I am confident that if we play to our ability then we can definitely win this game and level the series.”Pakistan narrowly avoided missing out on a place at the 2017 Champions Trophy earlier this year, winning series against Zimbabwe (twice) and Sri Lanka to stay above West Indies in the rankings. But their indifferent form could jeopardise automatic qualification for the 2019 World Cup.”Pressure is always there in every series and different pressures – we had the pressure of qualifying for the Champions Trophy when we were playing against Sri Lanka but then the players responded very well,” Azhar said. “So there is pressure and since it’s a must-win game, you take that as positive and focus on cricket, if you use all your abilities then there is no doubt you can do it.”Following the World Cup and Misbah-ul-Haq’s retirement, Azhar was recalled to the ODI side after a two-year absence to take up the captaincy. His tenure began with a first-ever series defeat to Bangladesh but results had been improving until back-to-back losses against England.Asked about his future in the role was at stake, he said: “Things which are not in your control, you can’t control so I think the best thing is to focus on what you have in your hand. I don’t have any fear of losing anything. Do the job honestly and no one in the team has that fear and will accept whatever the outcome is.”A loss of form with the bat has also come at an unfortunate time for Azhar. Having marked his ODI return with two hundreds in his first five matches as captain, he has now gone eight innings without reaching 50, either side of a short lay-off caused by an infected toe.”I scored a lot of runs when I started as captain, but sometimes you don’t score runs. I am trying my best and was feeling well in the last game, middling the ball well so hopefully I will do that again in the next game and convert the good start. When I go in I don’t take any pressure when I am batting.”His innings of 36 in the Sharjah ODI was curtailed by a run-out, one of three in the match that undermined Pakistan’s hopes of setting a more testing target. Azhar has been run out five times in ODIs this year, as well as once in Tests – five of which involved Mohammad Hafeez – and he admitted it was something Pakistan needed to work on.”Obviously you don’t want run-outs but sometimes it happens,” he said, “it was one of those days the calling was not good, three main batsmen got run outs and that is an area of concern. But it’s not a big problem that we cannot solve, I think it’s about focus and putting your mind into it.”He added that the batsmen had discussed the collapse that saw Pakistan go from 132 for 2 to 161 for 8. “I think all of us were hurt, we were in a position to score big and on that the kind of pitch it wasn’t easy to chase. At that time 208 looked good and had we taken one or two more wickets then the match could have been in our favour.”When it happens like this we discuss everything, obviously it’s part of the game but we were hurt because it was in our hands, so we need to take full advantage and achieve the best. The message was that we should score the maximum runs.”There was some good news for Azhar to contemplate on the eve of the match, with the suggestion that Yasir Shah could be available again after a knee injury kept him out in Sharjah.”Yasir, we will see his fitness today, how it goes, hopefully he is fit,” he said. “He is feeling better, and we want to assess whether he can survive the 50 overs, you can’t survive in a 50-overs game half fit, so we have to assess him. We will look at the pitch and then decide what combination we play.”

Abdur Razzak and Shamsur Rahman are the latest additions to the Bangladesh ODI squad that will take on Zimbabwe starting May 3

Mohammad Isam25-Apr-2013Abdur Razzak and Shamsur Rahman have been added to the Bangladesh ODI squad for the three-match series against Zimbabwe that begins on May 3. They will also be in the squad for the two Twenty20s which take place just after the ODI series.Shamsur is a right-handed top-order batsman who made his Twenty20 debut against Sri Lanka last month. He was adjudged leg-before, falling for a first-ball duck, though the decision looked dubious at the time. He scored heavily in this year’s Bangladesh Premier League, making 421 runs in 12 matches. He also had a decent first-class season, averaging a shade below 36 and scoring one century. He is yet to make an ODI debut.Razzak has been a regular in the limited-overs squad, recently completing 200 ODI wickets. In his last ODI appearance, he took a five-for against Sri Lanka.ESPNcricinfo has learned that a total of three players will be returning to Dhaka after the second Test. Shahriar Nafees and Enamul Haque jnr are so far the only two confirmed while the third player will be decided later.
