Former Indian cricketer Robin Uthappa believes Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli's Test retirements weren't a "natural exit" and that they still had the ongoing World Test Championship cycle (WTC) 2025-2027 left in them.
Najmul Hossain Shanto will continue to lead the side. The 25-year-old top-order batter remains at the helm after impressing with his leadership and consistency in the previous WTC cycle, where Bangladesh finished seventh.
