Bangladesh have lost the toss and were sent to bat first in the second Test of the two-match series against the West Indies on Friday at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium, Gros Islet, St Lucia.
Bangladesh included Anamul Haque Bijoy in the playing XI for eight years. He played his last Test at the same venue in 2014.
Mominul Haque, the former Test captain of Bangladesh, has been dropped in this match for his prolonged bad patch with the bat. Bangladesh also dropped the left-arm pacer Mustafizur Rahman to include the other left-arm seamer Shoriful Islam.
While Bangladesh made two changes, the hosts, West Indies, made one change dropping Gudakesh Motie to include Anderson Phillip.
