DUBAI: Ace all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan was on Sunday ruled out of Bangladesh's remaining matches in the ongoing ICC Men's Twenty20 World Cup because of a hamstring injury.

Shakib picked up the injury in his left leg during the game against West Indies on Friday and has not recovered sufficiently. And after a 48-hour observation period, the team medical staff decided to rule him out of the mega-event.

"Shakib sustained a left lower hamstring strain while fielding during the match against the West Indies," ESPNcricinfo quoted doctor Debashis Chowdhury as saying.

"In a clinical examination, it was diagnosed as an injury of Grade 1 intensity. He is ruled out from participation in the last two matches of the tournament and until further review," he added. IANS
