Bangladesh’s veteran wicketkeeper-batter Mushfiqur Rahim has been ruled out of the upcoming two-match Test series against West Indies due to a finger injury. He picked up the injury during the first ODI against Afghanistan last week in Sharjah. Rahim wasn’t included into Bangladesh’s 15-member squad announced on Sunday for the West Indies Tests.
