A total of 26 players, equally split in two teams, will play in the List ‘A’ match where former Bangladesh national side captain Ashraful will play for HP Red Team against HP Green Team.
Ashraful’s five-year ban on playing international cricket officially ended on August 13, 2018 and got clearance to play in Bangladesh's domestic competitions on the same day in 2016.
Ashraful was banned for his involvement in notorious match-fixing and spot-fixing during the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) 2013.
After completing his ban on international cricket, this is the first call for Ashraful under BCB’s supervision.
Ashraful left for Khulna on Monday afternoon, after reporting at Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Mirpur.
