Hong Kong, Oct. 29 -- The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has announced its squad for the upcoming Hong Kong Sixes 2025, scheduled from November 7 to 9 at the Tin Kwong Road Recreation Ground in Hong Kong.

Bangladesh are yet to lift the Hong Kong Sixes title but will be aiming to go further this year after an impressive run in 2024, where they reached the semi-finals before losing to Sri Lanka in a close contest, according to a press release from Hong Kong Sixes.

The team will be led by Akbar Ali, who famously captained Bangladesh to victory in the ICC U19 World Cup 2020, the nation's first and only major ICC title. His leadership and calm temperament are expected to be crucial in the fast-paced six-over format.
