Rubel quits Test cricket to 'provide youngsters more opportunities'

Bangladesh quick Rubel Hossain took to social media to announce his retirement from Test cricket today.

It’s a lie, says Rubel

There have been some suggestions that the Bangladesh pacers do not want to play home Tests. Pacer Rubel rubbished such noises and said it’s a complete lie.

'Want to get better in Tests'

There were high expectations for fast bowler Rubel Hossain since making his debut for Bangladesh in 2009. The cricketer from Bagerhat has gone through many ups and downs in his career and is now the side's second-most experienced pacer after Mashrafe Bin Mortaza.

Rubel denied security clearance

Making up for lost time

With a slinging action, Rubel Hossain has proven that he can deliver good pace and bounce. An in-form Rubel has always given the Bangladesh pace attack diversity and he has had some outstanding performances since making his ODI debut with a match-winning four-wicket haul against Sri Lanka in January 2009.

The lingering image of Rubel Hossain

Short, slight, fast, skiddy, moves it sideways, in-drifts it, and gets good bounce. And the last Australia probably saw of him was two one-over spells

Bangladesh may play with four pacers

The bowling combination will be finalised once the Tigers inspect the pitch at the Manuka Oval, where they face the Afghans on Wednesday. Rubel Hossain is most likely to open the bowling attack with captain Mashrafe Bin Mortaza and if the team feels the match needs an extra pacer they will include young Taskin Ahmed, who has been in good touch, in the side.
