During the practice, Tamim got injury to his left hand muscle. He could not play in the first Twenty20 against Sri Lanka because of that injury. Tamim will return to Sylhet after the second and last T-Twenty match in Sylhet tomorrow. The batting practice of the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium on Saturday has been quite sympathetic.
Bangladesh's deputy captain Mahmudullah Riyadh is also optimistic about Tamim's return. Today, in the pre-match press conference in Sylhet, he said, "Tamim's condition is very good now. Hope he will be fully fit and play tomorrow. If you get him, it will be very helpful in the match for us.
Bangladesh are suffering from injuries in this series. Regular captain Shakib Al Hasan did not play in the bilateral series because of a finger injury. Because Tamim is not there on it, Bangladesh has to face Sri-Lanka with a weak power team. If Tamim returns to the last match, then there will be some positive effect.
