Pakistan wicketkeeper-batsman Mohammad Rizwan mentioned yesterday that his team is well aware of the Mirpur conditions.

"We've seen in the recent past that the conditions favour the spinners," said Rizwan, who has recovered well from a chest infection and is all set to begin training ahead of the three-match T20I series, which begins from November 19, against hosts Bangladesh.

All the matches in the T20I series will be underway from 2pm, with fans returning to the gallery in Bangladesh for the first time since March 2020.

Rizwan made a miraculous recovery last week after two days in hospital to materialise a scintillating performance as he top-scored with 67 in the ICC T20 World Cup semifinal against Australia.

He ended with an impressive 281 runs tally, the third-highest in the mega event, despite missing out on the final after Pakistan bowed out to the eventual winners with a five-wicket loss.

And in the process, Rizwan became the first batter to score over a thousand runs in a calendar year in T20Is and has the chance to raise his tally further against the Tigers in Mirpur.

"I'm happy that I have scored the most runs in the calendar year. But I'm more delighted that I was able to secure this record for my country," Rizwan said.

Despite the early struggle in his T20I career, he blossomed this year after having shown promise in 2020 by scoring his maiden fifty against New Zealand in December.

Meanwhile, Pakistan announced the squad for two-match Test series against Bangladesh, the first of which will take place at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram on November 26.

Pakistan Test Squad:  Babar Azam (captain), Mohammad Rizwan (vice-captain), Abdullah Shafique, Abid Ali, Azhar Ali, Bilal Asif, Faheem Ashraf, Fawad Alam, Hasan Ali, Imam-ul-Haq, Kamran Ghulam, Mohammad Abbas, Mohammad Nawaz, Naseem Shah, Nauman Ali, Sajid Khan, Sarfaraz Ahmed, Saud Shakeel, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Zahid Mahmood.
