Tamim Iqbal out for eight weeks; will miss Zimbabwe T20Is, Australia and New Zealand series at home
Bangladesh’s ODI captain and senior statesman Tamim Iqbal has been advised by the team’s and Board’s medical unit to take six to eight week’s of rest to get himself ready for the T20 World Cup in October-November. Hence after the third ODI in Zimbabwe, the 32-year-old, who hit a century to lead Bangladesh to a 3-0 whitewash over the hosts will fly back home and not take part in the following T20I series. Tamim however is not the only one asked to prepone their trip back home as the Bangladesh team prepares to welcome Australia who would be flying to Dhaka in late July and play a five-match T20I series beginning August 2nd. "Tamim will return home alongside Mehidy Hasan Miraz and Taijul Islam from the ODI side," Minhajul Abedin, Bangladesh's chief selector was quoted as saying to Espncricinfo. The injury of Tamim is not recent and is supposed to date back to April when the Tigers toured Sri Lanka for two-match Test series. To avoid any serious drawback ahead of the World Cup, the BCB was forced to take this precautionary step on the advice of doctors. "Tamim has been advised to rest for six to eight weeks. He won't be able to play against Australia [in August] and New Zealand [in September] at home, but he might play against England [in October],” he added. To compensate for those players, the board has asked others, originally not part of the T20I squad to stay back for the series which itself was preponed by two days and will now end on August 25 instead of August 27, according to the original schedule. “We have asked Rubel (Hossain), (Mohammad) Mithun and Mosaddek (Hossain) to stay back with the T20I side as part of our contingency plan for the Australia series,” said Abedin. The reason behind such plans was the Covid-19 bio-bubble security ahead of the all-important Australia series as disclosed by the BCB "We have to keep players in quarantine for ten days ahead of the Australia series bio-bubble. We want to have as many options as possible as we won't be able to call up players from outside the bio-bubble,” it said. Having already won the ODI series and the one-off Test, Bangladesh would look to remain ruthless in the T20Is against Zimbabwe too with the first of three being played on July 22 at the Harare Sports Club.
Mohammad Saifuddin’s all-round show leads Abahani to Dhaka Premier Division T20 League title win
It was the last matchday of the Dhaka Premier Division T20 League and two of the top sides, Prime Bank Cricket Club and Abahani Limited were up against each other fighting for the title. Mohammad Saifuddin’s all-round brilliance led Abahani to the title win as the 24-year-old scored an unbeaten 21 in the first innings and picked four wickets. The Mosaddek Hossain side defeated Anamul Haq captained Prime Bank by eight runs. The last game of the league for both the teams went right down to the wire with veteran Alok Kapali making sure that the Prime Bank team didn’t go down without a fight. Chasing a mere target of 151, the Prime Bank team did not get off to flyer and Rubel Mia, a consistent performer in the league for the Bank, kept on the chase with his sluggish efforts even as wickets kept falling. However, it was once he fell down at the team score of 98-6 that Kapali got into the groove and started chasing the total with all intent. The 37-year-old along with Shoriful Islam added 26 for the 10th wicket after Nayeem Hassan and Rubel Hossain too fell cheaply post Mia’s dismissal. Kapali hit 15 in the penultimate over to bring the target down to just 15 from the last over. Running the risk of losing the last wicket, he kept the strike to himself in the entire last over but was able to hit just one six and hence his team lost the game by eight runs. Earlier in the day, Abahani won the toss and decided to bat first. With the help of Nazmul Hossain Shanto’s 45, Mosaddek’s 40 and a late charge by Saifuddin, the team in blue reached 150 in their 20 overs. Rubel was the pick of the bowlers of Prime Banka, finishing his four-over quota with 2/22. With this win, Abahani won the inaugural T20 edition of an otherwise established 50 over league called the Dhaka Premier Division. Before this game, booth Abahani and Prime Bank were tied at 22 points with 11 wins from 16 games.
