Afif Hossain and Mohammad Naim have made a return to the Bangladesh One-Day International squad as they were included in the 15-man squad for their three-match series against Afghanistan in July.

Afif returned to the squad after being excluded in recent Ireland away series in England, while Naim returned to the squad after two years since his last ODI against Sri Lanka at home.

Naim returned to the squad following his brilliant performances in the recently-concluded Dhaka Premier League, where he ended as the highest run-scorer.

Alongside the duo, Taskin Ahmed was back in the squad after recovering from an injury, for which he missed the away series against Ireland.

The three players came into the squad in place of Rony Talukdar, Yasir Ali Chowdhury, and Mrittunjoy Chowdhury.

The three ODIs against Afghanistan will be in Chattogram on July 5, 8, and 11.
