Despite missing the entire USA series due to rehab, Taskin’s inclusion in the World Cup squad raised eyebrows. The injury, a nasty blow to his right side, cast doubt on his ability to recover in time. But there’s a glimmer of hope.
Bowling Will Be Introduced Soon:-
Bangladesh Cricket Board’s chief physician, Debashish Chowdhury, revealed positive news after a recent MRI scan. “Taskin’s progress is excellent,” he declared to Cricbuzz. “He’s undergoing rehab, gym training, and even running sessions. Bowling will be introduced soon.”
This positive update is a welcome change from the initial uncertainty. But can Taskin translate his progress into match fitness? Here’s where things get interesting.
MRI Results Suggest The Fracture is Healing Well
The MRI results suggest the fracture is healing well. The plan now is to gradually introduce short run-up bowling, increasing intensity as he progresses.
Taskin’s running ability is a good sign, and throwing sessions are next on the agenda before he graduates to bowling with a short run-up.
