Captain Najmul Hossain Shanto will lead the side in the two-match series, with Mehidy Hasan Miraz named vice-captain. The Bangla Tifers, who are at fourth place on the ICC World Test Championship (WTC) 2025-27 standings, will aim to collect valuable WTC points across the series on home soil.

Hasan Mahmud, Ebadot Hossain and left-arm pacer Shoriful Islam have retained their places in the squad. The four fast bowlers will lead the attack against the West Indies in Mirpur.

Litton Das Returns as Soumya Sarkar Loses His Place

Wicketkeeper-batter Litton Das has been declared fit for the first Test after missing the recent tri-nation white-ball series in the United Arab Emirates because of a hip bone injury. His return provides an experienced option behind the stumps and in the batting lineup.

The middle order features experienced batters Mushfiqur Rahim and Mominul Haque, alongside Tawhid Hridoy. However, Soumya Sarkar has been dropped after featuring in the recent Test assignment against Afghanistan, leaving him out of the squad for the West Indies series.

Shadman Islam and Tanzid Hasan Lead the Opening Options

Mehidy Hasan Miraz will add balance to the Bangladesh side as vice-captain and a key all-rounder. He will lead the spin department alongside left-arm spinner Taijul Islam and off-spinner Nayeem Hasan, giving Shanto three specialist spin options for the Mirpur conditions.

The first Test will conclude on November 1, after which the teams will travel to Sylhet for the second match, beginning on November 5 at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium.
