Mustafizur makes a come-back to Bangladesh's T20 side

Bangladesh pacer Mustafizur missed the T20 series against Afghanistan in June due to a toe injury suffered while playing for the Mumbai T20 League in May

Fast bowler Mustafizur Rahman will return to Bangladesh's squad for a three-match Twenty20 series against WI next month, the Bangladesh Cricket Board said yesterday.

Mustafizur missed the T20 series against Afghanistan in June due to a toe injury suffered while playing for Mumbai the T20 League in May. He also missed a Test series in the West Indies but played a vital role in Bangladesh's 2-1 win in their one-day series with five wickets in three matches.

"He looks fully fit now so we did not consider giving him a rest," said chief selector Minhajul Abedin. Mustafizur replaces Abul Hasan in the squad. The first match will be held in Saint Kitts on August 1, with Florida's Lauderhill hosting the next two matches on August 4 and 5.
