Bangladesh won the toss and opted to field first against Scotland in their T20 World Cup opener on Sunday at Muscat, Oman.

“The wicket looks good to bat on, but we want to chase down here,” Mahmudullah said right after winning the toss. “We want to play our best cricket, and we have included three allrounders in our playing eleven.”

Bangladesh overlooked opener Mohammad Naim and included Soumya as the opener. Along with Soumya, Liton Das will open the innings for Bangladesh, reports the United News of Bangladesh.

Mustafizur Rahman will lead Bangladesh’s bowling attack, and he will be accompanied by Taskin Ahmed and Mohammad Saifuddin. The spin department will be led by Shakib Al Hasna, and he will have Mahedi Hasan with him.
