Dhaka: Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) named former left-arm spinner Abdur Razzak in the national selection panel.
In a virtual meeting, BCB directors have decided to include Razzak in the selection panel.
BCB, meanwhile, kept their faith on the two-member selection panel headed by Minhajul Abedin and Habibul Bashar being his deputy. Razzak will be the third member of the body.
Razzak, who is yet to announce his retirement from competitive cricket, has said that he is looking forward to taking up the new role. He also said that his association with domestic cricket would help him do the task successfully as he knows how the cricketers would react to different situations.
"I will make a call on my domestic career soon considering BCB just informed me that I am included in the selection panel," Razzak said.
"I think it's a new challenge and I am looking forward to it," he added.
Razzak has played 13 Tests, 153 ODIs and 34 T20Is in which he has scalped 28, 207 and 44 wickets respectively.
