Shakib Al Hasan returns to Bangladesh squad for second Test against Pakistan

Bangladesh's veteran all-rounder, Shakib-al Hasan, has returned to the squad after he missed the first Test match due to an injury.

His return will boost the morale of the players and offer help in both departments after being convincingly beaten in the first Test match.

Pakistan and Bangladesh will lock horns in the second and final Test match of the series starting December 4 in Dhaka.

Other inclusions in the squad come in the form of pacer Taskin Ahmed and batter Mohammad Naim, who has so far been seen as a short format specialist. 

Taskin has also been added to the squad in a move that will add some pace to their bowling department. The surprise inclusion comes in the form of Mohammad Naim, who has recently become a fixture of the Bangladesh T20 side.
