Mustafizur Rahman is among five entrants to Bangladeshs 15-member ODI squad for the first game against New Zealand in Christchurch on December 26. Fast bowler Rubel Hossain has also returned, while Mehedi Hasan, Tanbir Hayder and Subashis Roy have earned maiden call-ups. Nasir Hossain, Shafiul Islam (hamstring injury), Al-Amin Hossain and Taijul Islam have been left out.Mustafizurs last international appearance was at the World T20 in March 2016, before a shoulder injury in July sidelined him from all competitive cricket since. He underwent surgery in August, and was part of Bangladeshs training squad in Australia earlier this month. Rubel had been dropped during the ODI series against Afghanistan in September due to a lack of fitness. He was included in the training squad as Mohammad Shahids replacement.Tanbir - who is predominantly a batsman but has been picked as a legspinning allrounder - impressed coaches in the training camp in Sydney, while Subashis will be expected to extract pace and bounce from pitches in New Zealand. This is also the first ODI call-up for Mehedi, who made a dream debut during the Test series against England in October, taking 19 wickets in two Tests. Chief selector Minhazul Abedin said that the focus was on keeping the base group intact while pushing players with potential up to the international level. We have kept the backbone of a settled squad that has been very successful over the last two years, Minhajul said. But at the same time, it is also important to get players in who we believe have plenty of potential to perform at the highest level. Tanbir has been a consistent performer in domestic cricket and gives a different dimension to our attack as he is a genuine legspinner. He has also impressed the coaching team during the camp in Australia.Subashis hits the deck and can extract bounce and movement off the wicket. He can be quite a handful in the conditions in New Zealand. Mehedi hasnt played ODIs yet but has all the makings of a very useful limited-overs allrounder. We have reason to believe that he has the ability to serve Bangladesh in all formats and is one for the future.The other members of Bangladeshs preliminary squad that had trained in Sydney - Mominul Haque, Nurul Hasan, Shuvagata Hom, Nazmul Hossain Shanto, Taijul, Kamrul Islam Rabbi, Ebadat Hossain and Mehedi Maruf - will travel with the team in New Zealand, giving the side the option to pick squads for individual ODIs and T20s.

Making his first appearance since injuring his wrist a month ago, Del Potro had difficulty with his service games in the first set. What happened over the weekend that you need to know about? Joe McDonald gives us his take on the biggest and best performances. This is where we say, Morning, Joe.Taking it outside: The Heritage Classic brought the game back outside between the Edmonton Oilers and Winnipeg Jets at Investors Group Field on Sunday in Winnipeg. After a two-hour sun delay, the Oilers beat the Jets 3-0, improving to 5-1-0. The Oilers have won five of their first six games for the first time since 1985-86. Some believe the NHL is producing too many outdoor games ever since the Winter Classic became the leagues premier event, beginning in 2008. But playing outside is a great way to celebrate the game and its fans, and there should be more. Yes, it can be a logistical nightmare to host one of these games, but the league does a tremendous job dealing with the elements. The players enjoy the outdoor games. There should be more, not fewer, of them, and instead of picking only marquee matchups, the league should figure out a way to get more teams involved. Some pretty cool outdoor venues would be amazing places to watch a hockey game, including outdoor stadiums in Europe.Ice trouble: After the New York Islanders played their first regular-season game at Barclays Center last season, one player said the ice was like skating in quicksand. Well, one calendar year later, the players are still complaining about the ice. The Islanders have played four games at home this season and the ice has been described as unplayable. Coach Jack Capuano does not want to hear any excuses, of course, and captain John Tavares gave the standard both teams have to play on it line, but this cant continue. The unseasonably warm weather could have something to do wiith the issues, but the team is working close with the NHL to get fix the problem.dddddddddddd The Islanders are trying to become a perennial playoff contender, and the organization wants its product to have the best possible chance to be successful, so the ice has got to be better. The team hired a full-time ice manager during the offseason to help, but theres no reason this should still be an issue. Players will be at risk of injury if it isnt addressed. Barclays Center is a nice arena in a growing neighborhood of Brooklyn, but its terrible for hockey. The Islanders need their own arena. They can opt out of their 25-year lease with Barclays after next season. There should be other options, whether a new home or vast improvements to Barclays. If the ice doesnt get better, players arent going to want to play for the Islanders, and the ability to lure free agents will melt faster than the Barclays ice.Canucks falling back: Third-period goals by Nick Ritchie and Corey Perry helped the Anaheim Ducks to a 4-2 victory over the Vancouver Canucks in Anaheims home opener at Honda Center. Many had the Canucks finishing near the bottom of the Pacific Division standings once again this season. In the early going, however, they have surprised some people with their play. But they have now dropped back-to-back games against the Los Angeles Kings (4-3 in the shootout) and the Ducks. Anaheim, a team that produced 103 points last season, was expected to
