Afghanistan have announced their squad for the upcoming ODI series against Bangladesh, set to begin next month.

In light of this success, the selectors have made two notable additions to the squad. Afghanistan have brought in opening batter Sediqullah Atal and spinner Noor Ahmad. Ibrahim Zadran and Mujeeb Ur Rahman have been left out due to their respective injuries.
