National cricket players, all-rounder Mahmudullah Riyad and former captain Mohammad Ashraful, are seen at a fitness training session at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Mirpur in the city on Sunday. The training is part of the latest efforts to revitalize and restore the image of the Bangladesh cricket team which lost a series of important matches, including the last two matches in the World Cup Cricket 2019, three-match ODI series against Sri Lanka and the only Test match and a T20I on home ground against Afghanistan.
The national team has a huge task ahead in restoring its reputation. It would face three-match T20I series and two Test matches in India in November. In the months to up, although not yet confirmed, Australia is also expected to visit to play a series of Test matches in June next year here in Bangladesh.
