BSS, Dhaka :
The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) announced a 15-member Under-19 Cricket squad on Monday with an aim to win the trophy for the second time in the Under-19 Cricket World Cup (WC) .
The dream of regaining the title, which they first won in 2020, was bolstered by Bangladesh’s Asia Cup triumph for the first time last year.
All of the members of the Asia Cup winning squad made it to the Under-19 World Cup team.
Mahfuzur Rahman Rabby who led the side to Asia Cup title unsurprisingly was named captain for the event, which will take place in South Africa from January 19.
South Africa was the venue when Akbar Ali led Bangladesh U-19 team to trophy in 2020, beating mighty India.
