BD A start one-day challenge


Fresh from a Test series whitewash, the visiting Bangladesh A team will open their one-day campaign against their Zimbabwe counterparts today.

The second-string national side, which handed the hosts a 3-0 n the Tests, will play five limited-overs matches.

Opening batsman Shahriar Nafees Ahmed and all-rounder Saqib Al Hasan, the two outstanding performers in the three Tests, however will not be available for the one-day series because they flew home to appear in the SSC examinations.
