Shakib, Tamim return for ODIs

Bangladesh selectors yesterday recalled Tamim Iqbal and Shakib Al Hassan to a full-strength squad for the One Day International series against West Indies.

The pair missed the Tigers’ last ODI series against Zimbabwe in October due to injury, but were deemed fit for the upcoming threematch contest.

Opening batsman Tamim has not played since injuring his wrist during the Asia Cup opener against Sri Lanka in September. He was expected to return for the Test series but a rib injury delayed his comeback.

He was only cleared to play the ODIs on Saturday.

West Indies will also play three Twenty20 internationals against the hosts during their monthlong tour.
