Bangladesh's Ebadot Hossain Misses Australia Test Series
Bangladesh's cricket team is getting ready for a big Test series against Australia.
Unfortunately, their fast bowler Ebadot Hossain won't be able to play because he's going to be a dad soon.
Another bowler, Nahid Rana, might also miss the first match because of an injury.
But the team is hopeful that their experienced batter, Litton Das, will be fit in time.
They'll have a practice match before the series starts to get ready.
Even though they had a tough time in their last match against Zimbabwe, the team is confident because they did really well in their last series against Pakistan.
Taskin Ahmed, another fast bowler, decided not to play in a league to focus on preparing for this series.
Bangladesh's pace spearhead Ebadot Hossain will miss the Test series against Australia to welcome his first child.
Nahid Rana's availability for the opening Test is uncertain due to a side injury.
Litton Das is expected to recover from a calf injury in time for the series.
Bangladesh will have a three-day warm-up match against a Cricket Australia XI in Darwin from August 3.
Taskin Ahmed withdrew from the LPL to focus on preparing for the Australia tour.
