Mehidy Hasan Under Observation As Bangladesh Eye Galle Advantage In Sri Lanka Test
Mehidy Hasan Miraz: As Bangladesh gear up for the opening Test of their Sri Lanka tour in Galle on Tuesday, all eyes are on the availability of key allrounder Mehidy Hasan Miraz, who remains under medical observation due to a bout of fever.
While his recovery is reportedly progressing, Bangladesh captain Najmul Hossain Shanto said the team will make a last-minute decision on Mehidy’s inclusion in the playing XI. “Mehidy is still under observation, but his health is improving. A lot depends on his availability,” Shanto told reporters on the eve of the Test. “If he is in the team, we can go into the Test with a good combination.”
The absence of Mehidy, a vital spin-bowling asset and lower-order contributor, could force Bangladesh to alter their balance on a pitch that is known to dramatically assist spinners as the match progresses.
