Assuming Taskin Ahmed‘s recuperation goes well, Bangladesh anticipates having him available for the June tour of Sri Lanka. Bangladesh will play Sri Lanka in a multi-format bilateral series from June 17 to July 16.
Taskin Ahmed recently sought advice from a group of medical experts in London about his persistent Achilles tendon problem. Taskin was unable to play in the two-match Test series against Zimbabwe. The fast bowler will also be absent from the tourists’ forthcoming trip of Pakistan and the United Arab Emirates, which will include of seven Twenty20 International matches.
Ankle surgeon, sports physician, and sports physiotherapist evaluated Taskin Ahmed.
After a thorough assessment, the medical community’s consensus was that, at this point, non-surgical treatment of the issue was the best course of action.
The Bangladesh national team support personnel will oversee the implementation of a thorough rehabilitation plan that has been developed.
According to the experts, Taskin’s best course of action right now is a conservative, non-surgical strategy. The rehabilitation approach is designed to properly manage the tendon disease and gradually restore his fitness. In a statement released on Tuesday, BCB senior physician Debashish Chowdhury, who travelled with Taskin to England, expressed optimism regarding his progress.
“Taskin is expected to regain match fitness by early June, pending successful completion of his rehabilitation,” he said.
The visit will begin with the two-match Test series, with the first match starting in Galle on June 17. Bangladesh will arrive in Sri Lanka on June 13.
