Internet Desk: Hosts Bangladesh were dealt a blow as pace bowler Mustafizur Rahman has suffered a side strain and will not play any further part in the Micromax Asia Cup T20.
According to Bangladesh team physio Bayjedul Islam Khan said: “Mustafiz complained of discomfort after Sunday’s match against Sri Lanka. An MRI scan was done today and the report from the radiologist confirmed a Grade 1 side strain on the right. He is under conservative treatment and rest for next 48 hours. Following that the rehab will begin.
“We are expecting that he will make a quick recovery and resume bowling soon.”
Opening batsman Tamim Iqbal will replace Mustafizur in the Asia Cup squad.
