I expected some Dravidian haplogroup like H or L or maybe something mongoloid since low class Bangladeshis mixed quite a bit with Sino-Tibetian peoples.
Well, Bangladesh is majority Muslim, I doubt they have the Indian caste thing going on. Never been deeply interested in those countries.
The main haplos in Bangladeshi Bengalis are the following (a very solid sample size of 649):

Code:
R1a 31.59%
H 17.72%
L 17.41%
J 15.72%
Q 6.93%
I 4.16%
E 2.62%
G 1.08%
R1b 0.62%
N 0.46%
4% I is super weird for Bangladesh too by the way. But R1b is apparently even rarer.
