Bangladeshi player Rizan to watch out in Under-19 World Cup

Dhaka, 6 Jan  - The International Cricket Council's (ICC) experts panel today revealed the name of the 'player to watch out' in the ICC Under-19 World Cup from each participating countries.

From Bangladesh, they picked up Rizan Hossain, a pace-bowling all-rounder, 
whom they thought would play a big role for the country's cause in the 
tournament.

"A pace-bowling all-rounder who is also a very handy batter, Rizan Hossan 
will hope to one day be as influential for Bangladesh as his hero Ben Stokes 
has been for England," The ICC wrote. 

"Although he was a little quieter during the U19 Asia Cup, Rizan showed his 
worth earlier in the year with back-to-back half-centuries against 
Afghanistan, while he also scored a brilliant century against England on a 
summer tour."

Whether it is his middle order batting or first-change bowling, Rizan will 
have a big role to play for Bangladesh, the ICC thinks.

The mega event for young cricketers will run from January 15 to February 6 in 
Zimbabwe and Namibia.

Bangladesh are pitted in Group B along with India, New Zealand and the USA.BSS
