Top order batsman, Saif Hassan, was awaiting his debut against tigers’ test match against India and an injury has prolonged the wait, confirmed Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB).
During training, his wounded finger was inspected by manager Sabbir Khan and physio Julian Calefato. Saif hurt his little finger on the right hand while taking a catch near slip during the first test in Indore.
BCB said that the finger is broken and Saif will be rested until the finger improves. The second and last test will start on Friday (Nov 22); BCB has not declared a replacement.
