“Shoriful underwent an MRI following the first Test and the results show a Grade 1 left adductor strain. Recovery usually takes around 10 days in such cases and he has started his rehab,” he said.
Shoriful took three wickets in Bangladesh’s 10-wicket win in the first Test. He was also handy with the bat, hitting two sixes in his 14-ball 22.
Bangladesh’s next assignment is a tour of India, with the first Test in Chennai from September 19. They play two Tests in total, and three T20Is during the tour.
Bangladesh are going to be busy till the end of 2024, with two Tests at home against South Africa in October, and a full tour of West Indies in November and December.
Shoriful has now played eleven Tests but also missed exactly that many Tests for Bangladesh since his debut three years ago. Taskin meanwhile is returning to Tests after more than a year.
