Tamim, who also resigned the ODI captaincy, is currently in rehab for his back injury. He met with a specialist in London last month and is working towards being fit in time for the ODI series against New Zealand from September 21.

Taijul Islam and Rony Talukdar, who were part of the ODI squad against Afghanistan last month, were left out for the Asia Cup. Among the changes, Tanzid struck three fifties in the recent ACC Emerging Nations Cup, apart from a strong Dhaka Premier League performance last season. Mahedi, meanwhile, didn't have a great DPL season but did reasonably well in the ACC tournament.

Bangladesh's first game in the Asia Cup is against Sri Lanka in Pallekele on August 31.
