Litton Das Named Bangladesh ODI Captain

AI-synthesized · Bias removed · Facts only

Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has appointed Litton Das as the new captain of the One Day International (ODI) team, replacing Mehidy Hasan Miraz. The change aims to provide a unified direction for the national cricket team.

The appointment sees Litton Das taking on leadership responsibilities in both white-ball formats – ODI and T20I – until the 2027 World Cup. This consolidation of captaincy is intended to foster consistency and strategic alignment within the Bangladesh squad, according to the BCB.

Mehidy Hasan Miraz has been relieved of his duties as the ODI captain. The decision was made by the Bangladesh Cricket Board in pursuit of a unified direction for the team. Litton Das brings prior experience to the role, having previously captained Bangladesh in limited-overs matches. This existing leadership background was likely a key factor in the BCB’s selection process.
