Bangladesh on Tuesday recalled former captain Mohammad Ashraful for next month's World Twenty20 tournament in the Caribbean. The 25-year-old batsman, who was dropped for the recent Test and one-day series against England because of inconsistent form, was given a second chance, chief selector Rafiqul Alam said.
Bangladesh are drawn with defending champions Pakistan and Australia in the tough group A, from which two teams will advance to the Super Eights.
