Saif Hassan named vice-captain in T20 format

DHAKA, Nov 18, 2025 (BSS) - The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) today appointed Saif Hasan as the vice-captain in T20 International format. 

Saif Hassan's elevation as vice-captain of the T20 team comes on the back of consistent and impressive performances in the shortest format for Bangladesh. Liton Kumer Das has been entrusted with leading the side until the ICC Men's T20 World Cup in 2026.

The BCB also confirmed leadership appointments in other two formats naming Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Najmul Hossain Shanto as vice-captains in Test, ODI cricket respectively. 

Shanto will continue as Test captain until the end of the current ICC Test Championship cycle. Mehidy will serve as his deputy.

Similarly Shanto will act as the deputy of Mehidy in the ODI format as the all-rounder was made ODI skipper for a one-year term in June this year.
