DARWIN, Australia: Bangladesh captain Najmul Hossain Shanto Wednesday declared wicketkeeper Litton Das “100 percent fit” for the first Test against Australia while suggesting the tourists could play two spinners.
Experienced wicketkeeper-batsman Das had been sidelined since June with a left calf injury and was initially ruled out of the opening Test of the two-match series. But he was a late addition to the squad and is set to line up in Darwin on Thursday in a big boost to a side that lost their only warm-up game by an innings and 38 runs. “Litton gives us batting depth,” Shanto told reporters.
