Imrul likey to be out of Tigers’ series opener against Zim

Report suggested that Bangladesh's Imrul Kayes will sit out the first match of the tri-nation series against Zimbabwe to be played on Monday.

Tigers played an intra-squad match on January 6 but Kayes was not part of the match owing to a thumb injury which he suffered the previous day. It appears that he is yet to recover fully from the injury. The injury is likely to see him sit out the opener against Zimbabwe tomorrow which means that Anamul Haque Bijoy will start the match against Zimbabwe in the role of an established batsman.
