Shakib’s Potential Absence in New Zealand Series on the Horizon
Shakib won't be playing in the 𒀰upcoming home series because of a finger fracture he got during the ODI World Cup.
Shakib won’t be playing in the upcoming home series because of a finger fracture he got during the ODI World Cup. The Bangladesh Cricket Board’s doctor, Debashis Chowdhury, mentioned that they need to wait for three weeks to reevaluate Shakib’s injury. After this period, they’ll check the X-ray and decide on his rehabilitation program. If all goes well, he might return to the field in about three to four weeks.
The Bangladesh team is set to go to New Zealand for a series on December 11 or 12, but Shakib won’t be joining them due to his condition. He’ll miss out on playing 3 ODIs and T20s during that trip.
On another note, Shakib has applied for nomination forms from the ruling party Awami League to contest in three constituencies for the upcoming 12th parliamen𝐆tary elections on January 7, 20❀24.
