Bangladesh fast bowler Mustafizur Rahman underwent a second MRI yesterday in England of his injured left shoulder as the doctor wants a better result in a bid to determine the next course of action.
BCB spokesman Jalal Yunus said the left-arm pacer was injected with fluid in his shoulder to increase the transparency for a better MRI result through which Professor Tony Kochhar of  University of Greenwich will determine the treatment for Mustafiz. Professor Kochhar is a consultant orthopedic surgeon specialising in
shoulder, elbow and upper limb. “He has done another MRI on his shoulder to get the better result after which the doctor will determine the treatment process. It’s the only update we know as of now. Our doctors and physio have been in constantly in touch with them,” said Yunus, also the chairman of BCB media and communications.
BCB CEO Nizamuddin Chowdhury said, after the result of the second MRI is available the board doctors would talk to the British doctor to decide the next course of the action.
Earlier on Tuesday another MRI test revealed Mustafiz suffering from SLAP (Superior Labrum from Anterior to Posterior tear) on his left-shoulder. According to the Bangladesh national team physiotherapist Baizid Islam the injury has two kind of treatment, one through injection and second through operation.
Baizid thinks Professor Kocchar will prescribe Mustafiz with any one of the methods. Going under the blade is likely to force the pacer out of cricket for at least six months which means he will miss out home series against England, BPL and away series against New Zealand. In fact he will also miss the Bangladesh maiden Test tour in India, scheduled to be held in February 2017.
Mustafiz travelled to England earlier this month to join Sussex in the Royal London One-Day Cup and the Natwest Twenty20 blast. Following a brilliant debut in the Twenty20 blast, the Bangladesh pacer complained of pain in his shoulder.
He was in the 13-man squad for the game against Gloucestershire in the Royal London One-Day Cup on Sunday and had travelled to the ground to practice with the rest of the team, but persistent pain forced Sussex to take the precautionary move.
The injury on Mustafiz’s shoulder is old and have only reemerged.  As per BCB chief physician Debashish Chowdhury, Mustafiz is facing the trouble in his effort to bring variation in his bowling attack.
BCB has advised Mustafiz to rest until he gains hundred per cent fitness.
