Mushifiq ruled out of Sri Lanka Test series due to injury

The experienced wicket keeper batter of Bangladesh Mushfiqur Rahim will miss the Test series against Sri Lanka due to injury.

Fracture was found in his fingers. Mushfiqur injured his finger in the last ODI of the three-match series against Sri Lanka in Chattogram on Monday. When he tried to catch a ball behind the wicket, it hit his right thumb. At this time, he was also given treatment in the field under the supervision of a physiotherapist. Despite that injury, Mushfiq played a role in the team's victory by keeping and batting.

Chief selector Gazi Ashraf Hossain Lipu told the media, "Mushfiq's thumb has been fractured. We will miss him.  I will officially tell who can be taken instead.

It is said that it will take at least four to five weeks to recover from the injury. Due to this, Mushfiq will not be able to play in the Test series against Sri Lanka.
