Bangladesh name Amite Hasan in squad for second West Indies Test as Mominul Haque ruled out

Bangladesh have brought in Amite Hasan for the upcoming second Test against the West Indies after Mominul Haque was ruled out due to a head injury sustained while fielding. Mominul is required to complete a seven-day stand-down protocol as mandated by the ICC, following his earlier replacement by concussion substitute Jaker Ali during the opening fixture.

Najmul Hossain Shanto will maintain his leadership of the squad as they look to bounce back from an eight-wicket loss.

The preceding defeat dropped Bangladesh to fifth place in the World Test Championship standings after they failed to defend a modest target of 170. West Indies secured the victory comfortably courtesy of an unbeaten 81 from Brandon King and 49 runs by John Campbell, whose century opening partnership dashed the hosts' hopes.

Jomel Warrican also made significant contributions with the ball throughout the match, leaving Bangladesh in urgent need of a strong response.
