Soumya made a comeback to the national T20 squad after December 2024, following a strong performance in the ongoing NCL T20 tournament, where he scored 63 and 45 with a healthy strike rate for Khulna Division.
Litton, the regular skipper of the Bangladesh T20 team, suffered a side strain during the Asia Cup, which forced him to miss the matches against India and Pakistan. He has returned to the country to begin treatment and rehabilitation.
