Bangladeshi all-rounder Muhammad Saifuddin withdrew from the tour of Pakistan by Bengal Tigers A team due to mental stress and exhaustion.
The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) had selected the all-rounder for the 2-match series against Pakistan Shaheens, but Mohammad Saifuddin requested to take a 2-month break from cricket activities due to mental stress and exhaustion. Did it.
A top official of the board said that Saifuddin has informed in his email that he is disappointed not to go to Canada for the unrest in the country and for the Global T20 League, while keeping himself away from all forms of cricket for 2 months due to all these issues. Hope you will take this request positively.
Saifuddin did not mention the injury during a gym session in Mirpur two days before his scheduled flight to Canada in late July, when he was drafted by the Montreal Tigers.
BCB Physio Mujadadi Sani explained that Saifuddin was asked to get a medical team due to the injury while given instructions for treatment given the severity of the pain.
It should be noted that yesterday the board announced the 17-member squad for the Test series against Bangladesh, in which the captaincy was given to Shaan Masood and vice-captaincy from Shaheen Afridi to Saud Shakeel.
