England star James Anderson believes the "time is right" to end his Test career after revealing on Saturday that the first Test against the West Indies at Lord's on July 10 will be his final appearance in the five-day format which will bring an end to a 21-year career in which he became the most successful ever fast bowler.

“All of you are the future of Bangladesh cricket. You all have to give your heart and soul in training… Nobody can cheat success,” Mushtaq told the group of boys

 England's James Anderson will retire from test cricket after the first match of the series against West Indies at Lord's this year, he said on Saturday, ending a 21-year career in which he became the most successful ever pace bowler.

Shakib is currently sitting on 47 wickets in 36 matches in T20 World Cups and is the only active cricketer among the top five wicket-taker’s list in the competition.

The series will begin with the first Test in Antigua, starting on November 22 and followed by the second Test in Jamaica, commencing on November 30.

India have already named their World Cup squad with Rohit as their skipper. The Tigers, however, are yet to announce their 15-member squad but Shakib is expected to walk into the side if he remains fit.

Bangladesh lost their remaining nine wickets for just 42 to be bundled out for a meagre 143 in 19.5 overs -- a display that highlights the frailty of the Tiger’s batting in T20Is

Andrew Balbirnie's 77 helped guide Ireland to their first victory over Pakistan in 17 years as they won the opening Twenty20 international by five wickets in Dublin on Friday.

Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharsan both hit centuries in a record-equalling 210-run opening stand that helped Gujarat Titans defeat Chennai Super Kings by 35 runs in the Indian Premier League in Ahmedabad on Friday.

A minute’s silence was observed before the fourth T20I between Bangladesh and Zimbabwe at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium on Friday as a mark of respect for the tragic demise of Bangladesh Air Force Squadron Leader Asim Jawad in an air crash in Chattogram yesterday.

Zimbabwe need 144 runs to win.

Kohli's strike rate and his effectiveness against spin bowling had become a hot topic of debate in recent weeks.

Shah also informed that India would not adopt a split-coaching model.

Kohli has been remarkably consistent in the 10-team league and is comfortably the competition's leading scorer with 634 runs from 12 matches this season.

The Tigers are yet to announce their 15-member squad for the upcoming T20 World Cup, and should Shakib be selected, he would join Rohit as the only players to have competed in every T20 World Cup, sharing that honour.

Bangladesh have already confirmed the five-match series against Zimbabwe by winning the first three matches in a row in Chattogram.

The 37-year-old lefthander's last international was a T20 match against India in 2020 -- but he had long hoped to claw his way back into the squad.
