By AFP News June 02, 2024 • 15:01 PM View: 1377

Bangladesh pace spearhead Shoriful Islam is a doubt for the team's first match of the T20 World Cup after he split the webbing between his index and middle finger while fielding a warm-up in New York on Saturday.

The injury to the left-armer's bowling hand needed stitches and leaves him racing against time to make Bangladesh's opening match against Sri Lanka on Friday in Dallas.
