Mustafiz’s unavailability frustrates Sussex

Sussex are frustrated  with the fact they do not have Bangladesh fast bowler Mustafizur Rahman with them yet as he is yet to recover from his injuries, which has kept him out of action since the conclusion of the Indian Premier League (IPL), reports Cricketcountry website.
Mustafizur played for Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and managed to pick up 17 wickets for the franchise. With Mustafizur failing to regain fitness till now his England stint looks doubtful. Sussex Head Coach Mark Davis says that it is frustrating for the team as Mustafizur was picked as they considered him as the No. 1 bowler in the world in T20s.
“We have a couple of people but it is very late in the day so it is very hard to get replacements,” Davis told the media. “The top players in the world have been signed, or are playing CPL, or their countries aren’t allowing them to play. That’s the frustration because we have chosen Mustafizur as probably the No. 1 bowler in the world in that format.”
Sussex were initially happy to wait till June 10 for Mustafizur to join them, but still remain confident of having the fast bowler sooner rather than later.
“I spoke to the Bangladesh head coach and he said he would be assessed after two weeks, which is now,” Davis said. “It hasn’t been easy to nail Bangladesh down. Their coach has been the one I have got most direction from. But we are also dealing with physios and trainers who are putting things on the internet. I am sure we will get it nailed down.”
Speculation is swirling over Mustafizur’s visit to England after he received an injury ahead of the second qualifier in the lucrative T20 tournament. Following an initial assessment of his injury, Bangladesh Cricket Board physiotherapists and doctors said a decision on Mustafizur’s visit to England would be made taking his physical condition into account. Bangladesh will play in the Champions Trophy in England next year. Hathurusingha thinks Mustafizur’s county experience there will help him prepare for the One-Day tournament. “If you want to improve performance, you have to play in England’s conditions. You don’t go there, you don’t know,” Hathurusingha said.
“It is a rare opportunity for Bangladesh players to play there. If I can send four players I will send them all. It is the best way to do it.” Sussex signed Mustafizur for this season’s NatWest T20 Blast and Royal London One-Day Cup. They hope to get the young left-arm seamer for the match against Kent on Jun 10 in their backyard, Hove. The BCB is yet to officially say anything on the matter though different sources indicate that Mustafizur is having some difficulty with his hamstring. But it is not serious enough to stop him from playing. Mustafizur, however, have told his close acquaintances that although his body may recover, he is mentally tired after having played without a break for a long time.
