In the Mirpur Test against South Africa, Nazmul Hossain Shanto had to accept defeat by 7 wickets despite avoiding a shameful loss by an innings. The two teams will step into Chittagong to play the second Test. But Taskin Ahmed was not included in the team announced for the Chittagong Test team.

The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) announced the squad for the Chittagong Test on Thursday (October 24). One change has been made to the squad for the second Test. Pacer Taskin Ahmed was left out of the second test despite not playing in the first test team. Instead, pacer Khaled Ahmed got a chance in the team.
