The Bangladesh cricket team will take on host Zimbabwe in a one-off Test at the Harare Sports Club starting July 7.

The visitors head into the Zimbabwe tour after defeating Sri Lanka 2-1 in a three-match ODI series away from home in May. However, Bangladesh had suffered a 1-0 defeat in the two-match Test series held in the island nation.

As far as their squad is concerned, Bangladesh have added their star all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan, who makes a comeback for the one-off Test after he had skipped the Sri Lanka Test series in order to participate in the Indian T20 League 2021. 

The Mominul Haque-led side has also included the injured trio of Tamim Iqbal, Taskin Ahmed and Mushfiqur Rahim, who missed the second phase of the recently-concluded Dhaka Premier League.

Wicket-keeper batsman Nurul Hasan and off-spinner Nayeem Hasan have returned to the Test squad as well. The tourists also made a late addition by bringing in all-rounder Mahmudullah, who had last played a Test match against Pakistan in February 2020.

Meanwhile, the Zimbabwe cricket team has also announced their squad for the one-off Test. Led by Sean Williams, the hosts have added four uncapped players - Tanaka Chivanga, Joylord Gumbie, Takudzwanashe Kaitano and Dion Myers in their 20-man squad.

The hosts will look to put on a better show at home having suffered a 2-0 loss against Pakistan in the two-match Test series held in May.

The Bangladesh tour of Zimbabwe also includes three ODIs and as many T20Is to be played at the Harare Sports Club.
