Default Emerging Asia Cup, Sri Lanka, July 2023

Group A: Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Afghanistan, Oman
Group B: India, Pakistan, UAE, Nepal

Full members may field their U/23 teams, with each team including four older players. UAE, Oman, and Nepal are likely to field their full strength national teams. The tournament is scheduled to start from July 14, with Bangladesh taking on Sri Lanka in the opening match.

Bangladesh Emerging Squad:
Saif Hassan (Captain), Mohammad Naim, Mahmudul Hasan Joy, Zakir Hasan (VC, WK), Soumya Sarkar, Shahadat Hossain Dipu, Akbar Ali (WK), Sheikh Mahedi, Rakibul Hasan (SLA), Mrittunjoy Chowdhury, Tanzim Hasan Sakib, Musfik Hasan, Ripon Mondol, Parvez Hossain Emon, Tanzid Hasan Tamim

Ridiculous to see an experienced player like Soumya still playing for Emerging team. I guess Hathuru wants him back by any means. Naim or Mahedi can at least justify that they only got 2-3 ODIs so far. Actual emerging players like Emon or Tamim prolly will be warming bench, with older top order batters with international experience crowding the side.
