Bangladesh, on the other hand, were forced to withdraw from the tournament following their refusal to play their matches in India. The Tigers are making a return to international cricket after three months.

Pakistan have named as many as six uncapped players in the squad following their horrendous T20 World Cup exit. One notable absentee is that of Babar Azam, whose omission comes in the aftermath of a poor outing in the T20 World Cup. Pakistan will be led by Shaheen Shah Afridi, whereas Mehidy Hasan Miraz will lead Bangladesh.
