Taskin Ahmed's fitness for Bangladesh's T20 World Cup opener vs Sri Lanka on June 8th depends on a bowling session on June 5th.

Bangladesh is hopeful Taskin Ahmed will be fit for the ICC Men's T20 World Cup opener vs Sri Lanka on June 8th. Taskin, recovering from a rib-fracture, will have a final decision on his availability after a bowling session on June 5th. Left-arm pacer Shoriful Islam will miss the opening game due to a hand injury, but it's too early to determine his participation in the entire tournament.
