Simmons urges Bangladesh batters to seize Test opportunities

Litton Das’s fitness remains uncertain ahead of the West Indies series.

Phil Simmons has urged Bangladesh’s batters to make the most of any openings in the Test side. ICC reports that Litton Das has not yet been declared fit following a hip concern; his absence from the upcoming Tests is not confirmed. The first Test against West Indies is scheduled for 28 October–1 November in Mirpur, with the second on 5–9 November in Sylhet. Bangladesh had not announced their squad when the report was published.
