The Bangladesh opener twisted his ankle while fielding on Day 2 of the second Test against West Indies in Sylhet, and will miss the upcoming tour of South Africa.
Bangladesh opening batter Shadman Islam has been ruled out of the upcoming tour of South Africa after suffering an ankle injury. The incident took place on Day 2 of the second Test against the West Indies in Sylhet, where Shadman slipped near the boundary rope while fielding and had to be stretchered off. He was unable to bat in Bangladesh's first innings.
A member of the selection panel confirmed that Shadman suffered a tear and could potentially have a fracture, though an official timeline remains unconfirmed. Opener Mahfizul Islam Robin is expected to replace him in the squad. Bangladesh is scheduled to depart for South Africa on November 10 for two Tests, three ODIs, and three T20Is.
