Dhaka [Bangladesh], Feb.1 : Bangladesh batsman Liton Das has been recalled in the 15-member Test squad for the one-off match against India beginning February 9 in Hyderabad.
The 22-year-old's selection comes after his first-class double-century in the Bangladesh Cricket League (BCL).
Bangladesh skipper Mushfiqur Rahim and top-order batsmen Mominul Haque and Imrul Kayes, who all missed the side's last Test match against New Zealand in Christchurch due to injuries, have also returned to the squad to face the Virat Kohli-led side, reports ESPNcricinfo.
