Mushfiqur Rahim is set to miss another series as his finger injury, sustained during the ODI series against Afghanistan, has not yet healed. As a result, he will also miss the three-match ODI series after already been excluded from the Test series.

According to sources, another scan will be conducted today or tomorrow to assess the current state of Mushfiqur’s injury.

Even if the report is favorable, he will require at least two to three weeks for rehabilitation. Based on this timeline, it is clear that Mushfiqur will not be available for the ODI series.

While Mushfiqur’s unavailability for the Caribbean tour is a setback, there is some relief regarding regular captain Najmul Hossain.

The top-order batter, who is missing the Test series due to a groin injury, underwent a medical assessment by the BCB’s medical team yesterday, with the results expected today.

The selectors are optimistic about Najmul’s recovery and are planning to include him in the ODI squad based on the progress of his rehabilitation.
