While the Bangladesh National Cricket Team is gearing up to prove their prowess in the ICC Champions Trophy in Dubai, some out-of-form star cricketers joined the Bangladesh Tigers program in Dhaka to stay fit for forthcoming challenges.

Experienced cricketers like Litton Das and Mominul Haque have also joined this camp.

Local coaches, Mizanur Rahman, Nazmul Islam, Tarek Aziz and Sohel Islam are overseeing this camp, focussing on both fitness and skill development.

Participants include players such as Afif Hossain, Shamim Hossain, Naeem Hasan, Hasan Murad, and Sadman Islam, along with Litton and Mominul.

“We started the camp by sitting down with the players and discussing their individual goals and areas for improvement,” said Sohel Islam. “We talked about what they want to work on personally, and where they want to improve their skills.”

This camp came as a great chance for Litton to prepare for future matches. The right-handed wicketkeepr batter just lost his place in the national team that is to take part in the Champions Trophy.

Sohel said Litton’s struggles in white-ball cricket and emphasized the camp's intention to address them. He said the coaches have already identified some aspects of Litton’s batting that need to go through some adjustments.

Sohel added that one of the core ideas of this camp is to keep the players fit so that they can meet the requirements of the national team at any point. He added that the coaches are maintaining regular communication with the national team coaches.

“We're all working together to ensure that players who come through the Tigers program are fully prepared for international cricket,” he said.
