What we learnt is that he has some problem with his knee and in that case we can't take any risk with our best player when we have the T20 World Cup and home series against West Indies in September and November. The board will take the final decision after talking with physio (Vibhav Singh) and head coach (Richard Pybus).”National skipper Mushfiqur Rahim, all-rounder Nasir Hossain, left-arm spinner Elias Sunny and dashing opener Tamim Iqbal were the other players selected for the competition.</blockquote>
