Rubel Hossain suffered a Grade 1 left side strain prior to the second Test against Pakistan earlier this month, which according to the team physio Bayjedul Islam would have taken three to four weeks to recover, a Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) statement said on Tuesday.
Injured Bangladesh fast bowler Rubel Hossain is gearing up for a
return to his national team fold resuming responsibilities as its main
strike bowler against India in an upcoming series.
India
will play a Test and three One-Day Internationals (ODI) from June 10 to
24 away at Bangladesh. India defeated Bangladesh in a World Cup
quarter-final clash in March.
Hossain
suffered a Grade 1 left side strain prior to the second Test against
Pakistan earlier this month, which according to the team physio Bayjedul
Islam would have taken three to four weeks to recover, a Bangladesh
Cricket Board (BCB) statement said on Tuesday.
Hossain has
undergone three weeks of intense rehabilitation process since his injury
and has started bowling at practice with a shorter run-up.
Hossain
had an excellent World Cup campaign as Bangladesh's main strike bowler
and has been their bowling spearhead for a while, particularly in the
shorter formats of the game of Cricket.
Bangladesh would hope he is able to regain full fitness before the Test match against India, beginning on June 10.
The
aggressive quickie would have an opportunity to get some competitive
match-practice if he plays in the final round of the third Bangladesh
Cricket League (BCL) competition, starting May 24.
Rubel has been named among the 23 players that compose the Bangladesh preliminary squad for the India tour
