ODI World Cup: Bangladesh have named a 15-member squad for the upcoming 2025 ICC Women's ODI World Cup in India and Sri Lanka, with Nigar Sultana Joty appointed captain for the team's second appearance in the tournament. Joty, who also captained Bangladesh during their debut World Cup campaign in 2022, will once again spearhead the side.

Wicketkeeper-batter Rubya Haider, with six T20I appearances for Bangladesh, receives her first ODI selection for the global tournament. The squad features notable additions in Nishita Akter Nishi and Sumaiya Akter, both of whom represented Bangladesh at the U19 Women's T20 World Cup earlier this year.

Sumaiya, who captained the team during the Malaysia tournament, made her ODI debut against Australia in March 2024. Nishita, the youngest squad member, has featured in two ODIs since making her debut against Pakistan in 2023.
