Bangladesh will return to international cricket after missing the T20 World Cup

Litton Das is set for a middle-order role

In the spotlight: Litton Das & Shaheen Shah Afridi

Despite his woeful ODI form in the last two years, the selectors welcomed back Litton Das into the format, as they hope Litton's skills against spin will get them back on track. Litton will also retain the ODI gloves, with coach Phil Simmons hoping that batting at No. 5 will also provide him some rest after a wicketkeeping stint. The onus will now be on Litton to improve his ODI form that went kaput as far back as December 2023.

Shaheen Shah Afridi will be looking to make it a hat-trick of ODI series wins as captain after winning 2-1 and 2-0 against South Africa and Sri Lanka respectively in his first two series as skipper. Afridi though, arrived in Bangladesh after a pretty average T20 World Cup campaign, when he took eight wickets but conceded runs at 10.52 per over.

Team news: Plenty of debutants for Pakistan

Litton and Afif will bat in the middle order, while Bangladesh could just go with two pace options.

Bangladesh (probable XI): 1 Saif Hassan, 2 Soumya Sarkar, 3 Towhid Hridoy, 4 Najmul Hossain Shanto, 5 Litton Das (wk), 6 Afif Hossain, 7 Mehidy Hasan Miraz (capt), 8 Rishad Hossain, 9 Taskin Ahmed, 10 Tanvir Islam, 11 Mustafizur Rahman

Sahibzada Farhan is set to make his ODI debut after top-scoring in the T20 World Cup

Farhan, Shamyl and Sadaqat will form the top three according to captain Afridi. Ghazi Ghori could also make his ODI debut behind the stumps too.

Pakistan (probable XI): 1 Sahibzada Farhan, 2 Maaz Sadaqat, 3 Shamyl Hussain, 4 Mohammad Rizwan, 5 Salman Agha, 6 Hussain Talat, 7 Ghazi Ghori (wk), 8 Faheem Ashraf, 9 Shaheen Shah Afridi (capt), 10 Mohammad Wasim, 11 Faisal Akram

Pitch and conditions

West Indies and Bangladesh bowled spin in 84 percent of their overs in the previous ODI series played at the Shere Bangla National Stadium. In one game, West Indies bowled 50 overs of spin. It should tell you what to expect in this venue, although both coaches Phil Simmons and Mike Hesson have said that they have seen an improved surface ahead of the first ODI. The weather forecast says there could be unseasonal rain in the afternoon.
