He himself has confirmed that he is suffering from depression and the brilliant player has appealed to the Bangladesh Cricket Board not to select him in any format of the game for at least the next two months. According to Cricbuzz, Mohammad Saifuddin has gone into depression due to not being selected for the recently played T20 World Cup and the Global T20 tournament being played in Canada. Things have not been going well in Bangladesh for some time and due to this, even the best players did not get their visas on time, due to which Mohammad Saifuddin could not participate in the Global T20 Canada on behalf of Montreal Tigers. Not only this, Mohammad Saifuddin also suffered a back injury while working out due to which he could not participate in the GT20 tournament. The medical committee of the Bangladesh Cricket Board officially confirmed that Mohammad Saifuddin is out of this tournament due to injury and it is very difficult for him to take such a long flight in this pain. An official of the BCB medical committee told Cricbuzz, ‘Saifuddin had a back injury and he came to us just before his flight. After checking him, we came to know that he would not be able to travel for 20-22 hours due to this pain. His flight was on 24 July and he came to us a day before that. Despite the initial treatment, his pain did not subside and that is why we decided that the experienced player will not participate in the Global T20.’ Mohammad Saifuddin is suffering from depression On 7 August, the Bangladesh Cricket Board confirmed that the Bangladesh A team will leave for Islamabad on 10 August to play two four-day Test matches. They will also play two four-day Test matches against Pakistan Shaheens, as well as three ODIs. These matches have been rescheduled as the situation in Bangladesh is very bad at the moment. BCB had given NOC to Mohammad Saifuddin till August 8 as he also had to join the A team going to Pakistan on August 11. However, due to not participating in GT20, Mohammad Saifuddin was very upset and is currently going through depression. Not only this, this player was also not included in the Bangladesh team of ICC T20 World Cup 2024 and in his place the selectors gave place to Tanzim Hasan Shakib in the 15-member team. A member of the selection panel said, ‘Mohammad Saifuddin sent me an email on July 30 in which he told me that he was going through depression due to missing two important tournaments. He sent me this email after the announcement of the A team. He also said that he should not be included in any form of cricket for the…
Shakib Al Hasan’s international career will be ruined! Know where is this all-rounder after the coup in the country?
Shakib has landed in trouble after he lost his parliamentary seat on August 6 due to political unrest in the country. Shakib Al Hasan (Photo Source: Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) officials are still unsure about the inclusion of premier all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan in the upcoming two-Test series against Pakistan. Shakib, who is currently participating in the Global T20 Canada, had earlier shown interest in playing the Test series, which is scheduled to begin on August 21 in Rawalpindi. Hence, he had planned to return to Bangladesh from the USA, where he is playing in the Major League Cricket, after receiving an NOC from the BCB by August 12 so that he can return to the country and prepare for the Test match. However, Shakib has run into trouble after losing his parliamentary seat on August 6 due to the recent political unrest in the country. Shakib’s return to Bangladesh may be delayed. This uncertainty could potentially affect his selection for the national team. Also, there are concerns about Shakib’s readiness for Test cricket, having played consecutive T20 matches since the home series against Zimbabwe in May. Shakib Al Hasan’s international career is at stake As reported by the Daily Star, a BCB official explained that the initial concern was whether Shakib would be able to travel to Bangladesh and then Pakistan, but now there are concerns about his ability to handle the physical demands of Test cricket after playing T20. The selectors have struggled to contact Shakib over the past week due to the unrest in the country and are expected to consult captain Nazmul Hossain Shanto and head coach Chandika Hathurusingha in the coming days before finalising the squad. The report further states that an 18-member preliminary squad, including Shakib and fast bowler Taskin Ahmed, has already been finalised, but the final 15-member squad will be decided after discussions with the selection panel. Meanwhile, Cricket Operations in-charge Shahriar Nafees has said that Shakib’s inclusion will depend on both his availability and his selection for the series.
