Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) announced a 15-strong squad for the three-ODI series on Thursday.
The selectors, however, left out Shakib Al Hasan, who is serving a six-month ban after the board found him guilty of several charges.
Another change to the squad that lost to India in June is the exclusion of all-rounder Ziaur Rahman.
Bangladesh will play a practice match on Aug 17 after reaching the islands on Aug 13 which will follow three ODIs on Aug 20, 22 and 25.
Squad:
Mushfiqur Rahim (Captain), Tamim Iqbal, Anamul Haque, Shamsur Rahman, Mominul Haque, Rubel Hossain, Nasir Hossain, Mahmudullah, Mithun Ali, Abdur Razzak, Mashrafe Mortaza, Sohag Gazi, Taskin Ahmed, Imrul Kayes, Al-Amin Hossain
