Bangladesh have made five changes to their T20I squad for their upcoming series against Sri Lanka, with former captain Najmul Hossain Shanto being the most notable omission. In 2024, Shanto scored just one fifty in 21 T20Is, averaging 18.84. Soumya Sarkar, Hasan Mahmud, Tanvir Islam, Nahid Rana and Khaled Ahmed, part of the Pakistan series, also lost their place.
