Bangladesh's Asia Cup 2022 match schedule, full squad and everything you need to know

The Asia Cup is all set to kick off on Saturday, August 27, with the hosts Sri Lanka taking on Afghanistan in the opening fixture. The third team in Group B is Bangladesh, who will be hoping to overcome their latest dip in form and display a similar tenacity to their 2018 campaign when they reached the final of the Asia Cup.

Meanwhile, Sridharan Sriram has been brought in as technical director ahead of the T20 World Cup to plug the gaps in the set-up.
