We Are Optimistic About His Progress, Says BCB Physician On Taskin Ahmed's Return
ICC World Test Championship: Bangladesh are hopeful that pace spearhead Taskin Ahmed will mark his return to international cricket during the much-anticipated multi-format tour of Sri Lanka, starting in June. The highlight of the tour will be the two-match Test series – part of the new ICC World Test Championship (WTC) cycle – with the first game scheduled for June 17 in Galle.
Taskin, 30, has been sidelined due to an Achilles tendon injury and missed Bangladesh’s recent home Test series against Zimbabwe. However, a recent consultation with specialists in London brought good news for the team and fans alike. Taskin has avoided surgery, with doctors recommending a conservative rehabilitation programme instead.
“The specialists believe that a conservative, non-surgical approach is the best course of action for Taskin at this time,” Dr Debashish Chowdhury, Bangladesh's senior team physician, was quoted as saying by ICC. “The rehabilitation programme is tailored to gradually restore his fitness and manage the tendon condition effectively. We are optimistic about his progress.”
