Bangladesh announce squad for ICC Women's Emerging Nations Trophy 2026 without Marufa Akter

Bangladesh has finalized a 15-player roster for the upcoming ICC Women's Emerging Nations Trophy 2026, which will be held in the United Arab Emirates. The team will be led by captain Nahida Akter and vice-captain Sobhana Mostary, though they will be without pacer Marufa Akter, who is sidelined due to a foot injury sustained during their recent tour of Australia.

Disha Biswas returns to the squad in her place, while Sathi Rani and Jannatul Ferdus Sumona have earned their first call-ups. The squad is scheduled to travel on November 10 to compete in Group B alongside Pakistan, Zimbabwe, the Netherlands, and Thailand.

Their tournament campaign begins on November 12 against Pakistan, followed by matches against Zimbabwe, the Netherlands, and Thailand throughout the remainder of the month.
