Bangladesh’s cricket team has suffered a big setback just five days before taking the two-Test series against Pakistan as promising youngster Mahmudul Hassan has been ruled out with a back injury. In an emailed statement, the board’s chief physician appealed that Mahmudul should at least have three weeks of rest, so he could fit in again.
One of the emerging stars from Bangladesh, Hassan, did injure himself the other day while getting ready for the series. The timing is wrong as the talented batsman was bound to play a big part in the series to be played against Pakistan. So, during the time the team gears up to face a good Pakistani side, his absence is really going to hurt.
Mahmudul Hassan out of Test series due to a back injury
The first of the two-match series between Bangladesh and Pakistan will begin on the 21st of August in Rawalpindi, while the second will be played on the 30th in Karachi. The injury to Mahmudul means they will reshuffle or bring in a replacement to beef up their batting.
His case was discussed with the full medical team from BCB before the decision to pull him out of the entire tournament. “His injury type requires rest and rehabilitation so that pushing Mahmudul can complicate the situation and may prolong his recovery time more,” With a few vital matches, this was indeed the best answer regarding the long future and health of the player.
The absence of Mahmudul Hassan will be a loss not just for the Bangladeshi team but also for the player himself who is in fine fetth looking to stripe this series. This 22-year-old was heralded as a bright prospect, itching to test his mettle against Pakistan’s bowlers.
An injury of this sort comes as a game-changer in the context of Bangladesh, adding pressure on the think tank to come up with a new strategy and trying to make amends to stay somehow or other in the series. The team will have to now rally round to overcome the loss of one of their main men.
As the series is approaching the closing affair, both sides will be doing their final refinements in terms of preparations. While for Bangladesh, the main thing would be how they go on with that run of play without Mahmudul Hassan, Pakistan would look to take in full advantage of that in the opposition’s weakness. Surely, cricket-lovers can hope for quite a contest between these two sides, and it is not very unfortunate for Bangladesh not to have their skipper.
