A day after he was dropped from Bangladesh's squad for the third ODI, Litton Das got out cheaply while batting at number three in the ongoing Dhaka Premier League (DPL) 2024.
Litton made an appearance for Abahani Ltd against Shinepukur Cricket Club at the BKSP-3 in Savar on Sunday. Mohammad Naim and Sabbir Hossain opened the innings while Litton was slotted at number three.

Litton, who registered two consecutive ducks in the ongoing Sri Lanka ODI series, was excluded from the squad. Chief selector Gazi Ashraf Hossain said Litton's "inconsistency with the new ball" was behind that decision.
Although he has been in decent touch in T20 cricket, Litton's recent ODI form has been quite alarming as he has gone 10 innings without a half-century in the 50-over format.
